DESCRIPTION

    Read REMARK 350 from `filename` and create biological unit
    (quaternary structure)

USAGE

    quat [name [, filename [, prefix]]]

ARGUMENTS

    name = string: name of object and basename of PDB file, if
    filename is not given {default: first loaded object}

    filename = string: file path {default: <name>.pdb}

    prefix = string: prefix for new objects {default: <name>}

EXAMPLE

    fetch 1rmv, type=pdb
    quat 1rmv
