Hi Phenix-ers, 

I thought to ask for something that I believe you have already implemented, but I'm not sure of the best tool to use.

I have a cryoEM map where I refine my "high resolution" structure. I also have the 3D variability of this map that shows several maps varying around the consensus high-res map. I want to refine an ensemble (20) of structures, one for every 20 maps around the consensus map.
Is there a tool in phenix to do this?

I could refine individually the high-res structure into each map incrementally; since every map differs a little from the original one, Real-space-refinement could move the structure a little at a time. Then I could combine all the PDBs in an ensemble?
A tool to refine variability would be very useful. Input could be a PDB and an ensemble of maps, and output would be all the PDBs combined?

Thank you.

All the best
Vincent
