Hi,
Ok, this will be pretty easy then. We can read the number out, stripping the rest away, and assume it is the residue number. How do we know if the single spin per residue belongs to the backbone N or the Ca? The labelling tag looks ambiguous. Could there be a tag like 'X nucleus isotope' with '15N' or '13C'? Or is this what 'Labelling:' does?
I think most people annotate in a quite logical way in that something like LYS-4 refers to the backbone of a labelled protein, e.g. amide protons in case of 15N labelling. Sidechain NH would not be annotated at all, or, one would chose names as contained in the PDB, e.g. Lysine's NZ. Of course at this point a number conflict would arise if the side chain N also gets the residue number like NZ-4. One would really need a more strict naming convention then to allow the software to decide which shall be taken for which display, activity etc. A simple solution could be to use only atom names from the PDB. In fact Labelling stands for X nucleus isotope as you say, possible values are 15N or 13C.
