_geom_torsion

Name:
'_geom_torsion'

Definition:

   The torsion angle in degrees bounded by the four atom sites
   identified by the _geom_torsion_atom_site_label_ codes. These
   must match labels specified as _atom_site_label in the atom list.
   The torsion-angle definition should be that of Klyne and Prelog.
