[phenixbb] Link NGA and THR

Hi Cory,

Did you supply phenix with a "edits" file that indicates that there is a 
glycosidic bond between the Thr and the NGA? Such file is a simple text file 
with content like this:

refinement.geometry_restraints.edits {
  bond {
    action = *add
    atom_selection_1 = name  C1     and chain A and resname NGA and resseq 
1001
    atom_selection_2 = name  OG1  and chain A and resname THR and resseq 
100
    distance_ideal = 1.439
    sigma = 0.050
  }
}

The above generates a generic covalent bond between C1 of NGA and OG1 of 
THR.



Alternatively, you can use the NAG-THR link that is already in the standard 
monomer library. (Note that this is actually for GlcNAc-Thr, but it should 
work for NGA-Thr too. Yes, its a hack.) This way you get a few more 
restraints:

refinement.pdb_interpretation.apply_cif_link {
data_link = NAG-THR
residue_selection_1 = chain A and resname NGA and resseq 1001
residue_selection_2 = chain A and resname THR  and resseq  100
}

Note the NAG and NGA.



For your reference, the NAG-THR link is defined in the monomer library as:

######
NAG-THR  .        DEL-O1   pyranose THR      DEL-HG1  .
bond_NAG-C1_=_THR-OG1
######

and

Good luck.

Hello!

I am refining a structure with O-link glycosylation (GalNAc linked to
Thr). Phenix seems to remove the link during refinement. Can anyone
suggest a solution that will maintain the bond during refinement?

Regards,
Cory
