Hi all,

Just an update on the solution (which was to use the altloc). I needed to use a different residue numbers as well as different names all with an altloc flag

e.g.        AABA    B      1

                BABB     B      2

                CABC     B      3    etc

This way they were all recognised and were all maintained as different molecules with differing stereochemistry

Thanks to all who gave help

J

J, I’d give it the same res num and chain id so the program won’t treat them as different residues. Don’t for get the altloc (AS3L and BS3L in my case).

Hi all,

I have a case where we have crystallised a ligand in our protein and the ligand purchased is a mixture of 4 structural isomers (enantiomers and diastereomers). There is no way of telling if one over the other is bound in the active site  so we have assumed all 4 are binding. I have generated 4 separate ligands with 4 separate cifs and the all fit the density. I am refining the complex with all 4 ligands at 0.25 occupancy (occupancy refinement is switched off, I have changed the clash guard non-bonded distance threshold is set to 0.0 (as an initial error message came up with nonbonded interactions < 0.5).

My refinement ran to completion, but something is definitely not right. The pdb file won’t load in Coot and in pymol the ligands have imploded/exploded. I am just wondering if this is the best way to refine this structure (or I have missed something) and probably more to the point what have I missed with the ligands. To me it is almost identical to alternate conformations, but I have obviously missed something

I have just install phenix 1.10 on a windows machine.

Thanks

J
