    An alternative way of doing this..<br>
    <br>
    You can make a file with a content like this<br>
    <br>
    refinement {<br>
      geometry_restraints.edits {<br>
        bond {<br>
          atom_selection_1 = chain A and resseq 123 and name CA<br>
          atom_selection_2 = chain Z and resseq 321 and name N<br>
          distance_ideal = 1.3<br>
          sigma = 0.02<br>
        }<br>
        angle {<br>
          atom_selection_1 = chain A and resseq 123 and name CA<br>
          atom_selection_2 = chain A and resseq 321 and name N<br>
          atom_selection_3 = chain A and resseq 234 and name O<br>
          angle_ideal = 120.<br>
          sigma = 2.5<br>
        }<br>
        bond {<br>
          atom_selection_1 = chain A and resseq 1 and name CA<br>
          atom_selection_2 = chain Z and resseq 2 and name N<br>
          distance_ideal = 1.3<br>
          sigma = 0.02<br>
        }<br>
        angle {<br>
          atom_selection_1 = chain A and resseq 1 and name CA<br>
          atom_selection_2 = chain A and resseq 2 and name N<br>
          atom_selection_3 = chain A and resseq 3 and name O<br>
          angle_ideal = 120.<br>
          sigma = 2.5<br>
        }<br>
    }<br>
    <br>
    and load it with all the other files in the GUI or provide in the
    command line, whichever you use.<br>
    <br>
    It is true that many non-standard links can be created automatically
    or by specialized stand-alone tools. However, these tools use a lot
    of heuristics and are highly reliant on input model geometry.<br>
    <br>
    To make sure a particular bond was created, try to find it in .*geo
    file that refinement always outputs. If it is there -- you all good!<br>
    <br>
    Don't use graphic programs to check if a particular bond was used in
    refinement. Why? Here is the answer:<br>

      <div class="">A first one consists in designing your residue
        linked to your ligand (under ChemDraw / MarvinSketch) then
        prepare the restraints under eLBOW (from smiles for examples).
        You will have to modify some atom names into the generated cif
        file (C, O, CA, N, CB, etc… depending of the modified residue)
        and above all change the nature of this molecule to L-peptide.
        Then you can use it in coot as a modified residue and use the
        modified cif file in Phenix. You can adjust the modification by
        tuning the occupancy of the atoms corresponding to the ligand
        and keep the occupancy to 1 for the atoms of the residue. Here
        you will have a nice covalent bond.</div>
      <div class=""><br class="">
      </div>
      <div class="">The second solution would be to restrain the
        distance between the atom of your residue and the atom of the
        ligand to a covalent bond (C-C distance or whatever it is).
        Certainly, angles should be restraint too.</div>
