Non-unified processing of cysteine residues #326

Description

@beautifulpie

Using pdbfixer to process residues, when adding hydrogens to cysteine residues, some residues are given hydrogens in a deprotonated form. I want a consistent behavior, so I wonder what I should do to achieve that. I have also tried adjusting the pH, but it did not produce the behavior I wanted. It seems to be caused by a disulfide linkage, and I'm wondering if there is any way to ignore it

Below are some examples from that output.
