Dear phenixbb members, I am refining a structure that contains Ca2+ atoms. The structure was determined in presence of lanthanide ions. Thus, the resulting density clearly indicates that a part of each Ca2+ sites is substituted with Eu3+ (let's say 75% Ca2+ and 25% Eu3+ per sites). How can I deal with such situation? Indeed phenix.refine complains when I try to put a Ca2+ ion and a Eu3+ one with the same coordinates (and with the occupancies mentionned above) and stop. Thanks for your help.
