Interface to the mmLib element and monomer library. The library data is in XML and mmCIF files in the Data directory of the mmLib distribution.

Method Summary
	`__init__(self)`
	`get_element(self, symbol)` Loads and caches a instance of the Element class for the given element symbol.
	`get_monomer(self, res_name)` Loads and caches the monomer description.
	`is_amino_acid(self, res_name)` Returns True if the monomer defined by the 3 letter code res_name is a L-amino acid, otherwise returns False.
	`is_nucleic_acid(self, res_name)` Returns True if the monomer defined by res_name is a nucleic acid, otherwise returns False.
	`is_water(self, res_name)` Returns True if the 3 letter code res_name is one of the synonyms for water, otherwise returns False.

Method Details

Loads and caches a instance of the Element class for the given element symbol. The source of the element data is the elements.xml file.

Loads and caches the monomer description.

Returns True if the monomer defined by the 3 letter code res_name is a L-amino acid, otherwise returns False.
