    Hi Esko,<br>
    <br>
    thanks for the paper - very interesting!<br>
    <br>
    Perhaps accounting for ptNCS matters a lot for structure solution
    or/and refinement/model building at early stages, however I did not
    see any problem with refinement in this particular example. <br>
    <br>
    Here is what I did:<br>
    <br>
    1) Get model and data from PDB:<br>
    <br>
    phenix.fetch_pdb 1yup --mtz<br>
    <br>
    2) Get initial statistics: R-factors from PDB file header, geometry
    using command:<br>
    <br>
    phenix.pdbtools model_stat=true 1yup.pdb<br>
    <br>
    Rwork=0.235 Rfree=0.311<br>
    &nbsp;all-atom clashscore : 8.21<br>
    &nbsp;ramachandran plot:<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; outliers : 1.52&nbsp; %<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; allowed&nbsp; : 7.43&nbsp; %<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; favored&nbsp; : 91.05 %<br>
    &nbsp;rotamer outliers : 14.11 %<br>
    &nbsp;cbeta deviations : 3<br>
    <br>
    3) Then I perturbed the model and refined it with phenix.refine
    (restrained coordinates and B-factors, water update, weights
    optimization, local real-space refinement). Here is the statistics
    for refined model:<br>
    <br>
    Rwork=0.2380 Rfree=0.2709<br>
    &nbsp;all-atom clashscore : 10.61<br>
    &nbsp;ramachandran plot:<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; outliers : 0.80&nbsp; %<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; allowed&nbsp; : 5.20&nbsp; %<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; favored&nbsp; : 94.00 %<br>
    &nbsp;rotamer outliers : 2.38 %<br>
    &nbsp;cbeta deviations : 0<br>
    <br>
    Just to make it clear: I'm *not* saying we shouldn't account for
    ptNCS in refinement; in fact, we really should especially given that
    Randy Read et al worked out all the methods for this!<br>
    <br>
    I will re-visit this once we implement ptNCS in phenix.refine.<br>
    <br>
    All the best,<br>
    Pavel<br>
    <br>

      &nbsp;Hi Mark,
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I believe at least part of the problem arises already in the
        scaling stage, where the programs assume a unimodal distribution
        which is not the case in the presence of pseudo-translations. We
        encountered a similar issue with refinement and
        pseudo-translation, where I simply scaled the systematically
        weak data separately from the strong and did rigid body
        refinement against the weak data and restrained against the
        strong. The details can be found in&nbsp;<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?ea5052">http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?ea5052</a>.</div>
