[gmx-users] any software which could convert a polypeptide sequence to a pdb file?

[Itamar Kass]

Hi,

It seems like you look into modelling the polypeptide, if you have a 
good template you can use pymol ot even insight. If you wish to have an 
ab-initio model you can use sybyl or alike.

Good luck with it,
Itamar
