Actually, this thread raises an interesting issue: do refinement
programs ever refine cell parameters (I think they do not.) I wonder
whether it would make any difference, especially in things like bond
lengths? Should be easy enough to include, but I guess the gains might
not be so significant? I would imagine, though, that once one had a
working model, one could make a histogram of observed bond lengths and
their orientations, and scale the cell parameters accordingly to make
the bond-length distribution be centered on the ideal lengths. This
might perhaps be another source of "missing R"?

I found my mistake. The cell parameter definition in the .def file apparently overrules the definition in either the input .mtz or in the input .pdb CRYST1 card. Is that correct like this: .def file definition > .mtz definition > CRYST1 card definition?

Hi Michael,
I'm still confused.. What is .map file?
Are you running refinement as following:
phenix.refine model.pdb data.mtz
?
OK, I got the CRYST1 from model.pdb, now what is the unit cell parameters in data.mtz (you can get it with "phenix.mtz.dump data.mtz")? What is CRYST1 record in PDB file with refined model (model_refine_001.pdb) ?
May be it's easier if you send the relevant inputs (off list) and tell how you arrived to observing different unit cell parameters..

I made sure that this file is indeed the one being read by the .def file.

Hi Michael,
phenix.refine should take crystal symmetry from data file if there is a choice between PDB file and data file.
Did you mean phenix.mtz.dump? Can you send the output of
phenix.mtz.dump data.mtz
command, and CRYST1 record from PDB file as Nat asked?
Pavel.

Dear all,
I am sure there is a simple explanation for this, but I cannot find a solution. I am reading in an .mtz file in phenix.refine. mtzdump reports the following unit cell constants on the file test.mtz itself:
175.0930 67.2510 119.0500 90.0000 121.5500 90.0000
The refined .pdb file and .maps report however a slightly different unit cell, as does the logfile
snip Miller array info: test.mtz:FP,SIGFP Observation type: xray.amplitude Type of data: double, size=39702 Type of sigmas: double, size=39702 Number of Miller indices: 39702 Anomalous flag: False Unit cell: (175.17, 67.236, 119.246, 90, 121.416, 90)
What am I missing?
Thanks! Michael
