Hi,
I have a question about the handling of restraints in the individual
B-factor refinement routine.
What I'd like to do is to refine a ligand, which can be present in 2 or more
different conformations/orientations in its binding site. I'd like to use
B-factor refinement on the various instances of the ligand, which one is the
most relevant one, assuming that the most relevant conformation/orientation
is associated with the lowest B-factor (Validity of that assumption set
aside ...)
My question is now is there any difference in the restraints applied to the
b-factors in the scenarios where A) the ligand is modeled as alternate
conformations i.e.
ATOM 2724 C01AINH I 1 27.808 26.376 23.301 0.50 27.77 I
C
ATOM 2733 C01BINH I 1 30.898 22.496 17.340 0.50 22.15 I
C
...
vs. scenario B) where the same ligand is modeled as 2 different residues
ATOM 2724 C01 INH I 1 27.808 26.376 23.301 0.50 27.77 I
C
ATOM 2733 C01 INH I 2 30.898 22.496 17.340 0.50 22.15 I
C
....
Basically, what I am trying to achieve is to uncouple the B-factor
refinement of each individual instance of the ligand from its other
instance(s). Are there any hidden pitfalls between these 2 scenarios I
should be aware of?
Many thanks for any input.
Cheers
Carsten
