CBCB: Did you consider only Carbon Beta atom while predicting distance map ?

Hello,
While predicting the distance map, Did you consider only the Carbon Beta atom while predicting distance map ? What does it mean by CBCB? Or did u consider all backbone atoms like N, Carbon Alpha, C, and Carbon Beta?

CBCB means the distance between Carbon Beta atoms of residue pair. Other atoms are not considered.

Thank you for your quick response!
OFF TOPIC: As one of your lab works has extended or used Copulanet output ( predicted distance map) as input for SASA-NET, so is that also mean that the input distance map of SASA-NET is also the distance between carbon beta atoms only? I would appreciate the response or please let me know how to contact with SASA-NET team. I have opened two questions in SASA-NET Github but did not receive any response yet.

Hi, what did you consider for Glysin? As if I can remember, Glycine does not have a β-carbon.
