Dear Modellers,
I'm trying to apply restrains to the interactions of cavity residues with ATP. Apart from electrostatic interactions between atom pairs, a Tyr residue is always packed parallel with the Adenine ring of ATP, as shown in this pic:

I have labelled the atoms to help you. I'm wondering what would be the best stereochemical restrains to describe this interaction? A list with Modeller's stereochemical restrains can be found here:

Or would an Energy-based restrain describe that interactions better? Any suggestions are welcome.
thanks, Tom
