I think this would be extremely useful. Note that in this case there
should be descriptions at Brookhaven and so it shouldn't be necessary to
add huge amounts of infomration - just enough to avoid having to have
this discussion in future years.

N-termini are often very badly defined. But also it may be that they
had difficulty modelling it (it may show more than one conformation) or
even ... that their software wasn't very good ion non-standard groups
