Highlights for the 1.19 version of Phenix:
- phenix.real_space_refine:
- Improved rotamer fitting (use multiprocessing, in case of NCS constraints
work on one copy only and propagate changes to all related copies, various
performance improvements and bug fixes)
- Improved map/restraints weight calculation
- Morphing can now use multiprocessing (nproc)
- phenix.map_to_model and phenix.trace_and_build
- Improved high-resolution model-building including detection of insertions
and deletions
- New methods
- phenix.local_resolution: calculates a local resolution map
- phenix.local_aniso_sharpen: optimizes a map taking into account local
resolution-dependence and anisotropy of the map and its errors
- New scripting tools
- High-level scriptable Python tools are now available for map and model
analyses and manipulation as well as for model-building
- Restraints
- Adjusting the "positions" of atom names in (pseudo-)symmetric amino acid
side chains is now the default
- Improved restraints for ARG allows more flexibility of the CD atom
- Bug fixes
- Chains with modified amino or nucleic acids can be aligned
- Fixed handling of modified amino/nucleic acids in sequence alignment
