The name of a (non-standard) PDB file used to build an ENSEMBLE. The RMS deviation is parsed from the MODEL cards of the pdb file (MODEL RMS <rms>) that separate the superimposed models concatenated in the one file. This syntax enables simple automation of the use of ensembles.The pdb file is non-standard because of the addition of the RMS keyword to the MODEL card and also because the atom list for the different models need not be the same.

The effective RMS coordinate error is needed to judge how the map accuracy falls off with resolution. The extent is needed to determine reasonable rotation steps, and the centre is needed to carry out a proper interpolation of the molecular transform. The extent and the centre are both given in Ångstroms.
