RE: Need to add Hydrogens to over 300 distinct PDB's

I would suggest to install a free program (if you don't already have it) such as OpenBabel (http://openbabel.sourceforge.net/) or Vega (http://users.unimi.it/~ddl/vega/) that is capable of adding hydrogens and can be run from the commandline. All you then have to do is use a simple "for" loop in your shell (or shell-script) to issue the hydrogen addition command on all pdb-files.
 
Good luck,
Marc

        Hi All,
          I have about 300 PDB's that I would like to add hydrogens to, so
        obviously I would like to automate the process.
        
          Does anyone have a script (tcl or other) that can loop through a list of
        PDB's, add hydrogens and write out the PDB structure with the guessed
        atoms.
        
        Any help would be appreciated,
        Ed
