Whenever you see the bond and angle RMSDs blow up like this, it means that
the weight between the X-ray and geometry restraint terms was not
calculated correctly. Probably the quickest solution is to set wxc_scale
much lower - the default is 0.5 but at this resolution I think 0.1 would be
more appropriate, and you could try setting it even lower. (Note that if
you have weight optimization turned on this will have no effect.) However,
the fact that you didn't see this before suggests that there may be a bug
somewhere that is specific to your data. Could you please send us input
files and log file at [email protected] so one of us can take a look?
(These will be kept private, obviously.)

Hi everyone, I've been working on a low resolution structure (3.6A) which was previously refined with phenix 1.8_1069 (with a reference model, strategy=individual_sites,individual_adp ). I used the same input files and parameters and ended up with significantly different R factors.
Start: r_work = 0.2850 r_free = 0.3189 bonds = 0.005 angles = 1.059
Final: r_work = 0.2609 r_free = 0.3160 bonds = 0.003 angles = 0.997
For the old version
and
Start: r_work = 0.2779 r_free = 0.3183 bonds = 0.006 angles = 1.141 Final: r_work = 0.2889 r_free = 0.3303 bonds = 0.021 angles = 2.737
with the new version 1.8.4
Remarkably it also came with an increased number of C-beta deviation (0 against 16!).
Adding tls refinement or ramachandran restrains did not help.
Now because I was using the .eff file of an old version of phenix, it came with a long list of unused parameters. These parameters however were all used by default.
What should I do? Should I go back to this old phenix, or is there a way to improve the result?
