The "." is a place holder "residue" in modeller. It takes care of any residue type that is not defined in the library. You should add this at the end of alignment, after a chain break "/" and run modeller. The waters are represented as "w".

I have followed the method in the Modeller manual on how to model with water and metals or hetero atoms. The template includes a ligand, metal atom and water molecules. I would like to know how to incorporate this into the newly built model. So far I have succeeded in adding waters during modelling but the metal atom and the ligand is still not in the model. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
