 Providing `MOLTYPE=protein`, `MOLTYPE=rna`, or `MOLTYPE=dna` will instruct plumed to look
 for known residues from these three types of molecule. In other words, this is available for
 historical reasons and to allow future extensions where alternative lists will be provided.
 As of now, you can just ignore this keyoword.

-The information on the molecules in your system can either be provided in the form of a pdb file or as a set of lists of 
-atoms that describe the various chains in your system using \ref MOLINFO. If a pdb file is used plumed the MOLINFO command will endeavor to 
-recognize the various chains and residues that make up the molecules in your system using the chainIDs and resnumbers from 
-the pdb file. You can then use this information in commands where this has been implemented to specify atom lists. One place where this is 
-particularly useful is when using the commands \ref ALPHARMSD, \ref ANTIBETARMSD and \ref PARABETARMSD.
