PDB2PQR
PDB2PQR converts PDB files to PQR format, adding missing atoms and assigning charges for electrostatics calculations.

PDB2PQR is an online tool designed to prepare structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) for electrostatics calculations. It provides a streamlined process to convert PDB files into PQR files, which are used as input for various computational biology and chemistry applications. Can also be used to fix common issue with PDB files.
