Hi,<br>
<br>
I would check phenixbb archives: I vaguely recall someone reported a
similar problem in the past, and I guess what's Morten suggested was
the solution. Though I might be confusing it with something else..<br>

Sounds like inverted oxygens on the phosphate backbone.
<div>Go into Coot and find your DNA. Go 'Calculate' > 'Other
Modelling Tools...' > 'Base Pair'. Now click one of your
bases and go to the new base generated and compare the
stereochemistry of OP1 and OP2 of your DNA and the one you've
just made. I'll bet you anything that a few of them have been
reversed and if you fix the naming you will get much better
refinement.</div>

nothing worked. I must have<br>

I don't know why the secondary structure restraints wouldn't
work -<br>
could you please send me the PDB file off-list so I can see
what's<br>
going wrong? (No data necessary.)<br>
<br>
By the way, which version of Phenix are you using?<br>

Yes, see here:<br>

<br>
But hopefully the secondary structure restraints can be made
to work.<br>
