Hi Partha,

You can turn off the ncs with "find_ncs=False" in either GUI or command-line.

It is harder to only work on part of the molecule. If you can use "rebuild_in_place" (not adding/deleting residues) then you can specify a range of residues/chains to rebuild.  However if you are adding/deleting with rebuild_in_place=False, you are stuck.   One solution is rebuild all of it, and then recombine with the good (fixed) molecule using phenix.combine_models which should keep (most of ) your good chain.

All the best,
Tom T

Dear All, 

These days my research often involves structure determination of the Antigen:Fab complexes, wherein the antigen structure is already known. Given this: (1). I would like to run AutoBuild in such a way that the program does not to touch antigen model, but only Re-builds only the Fab molecule; and (2). in some cases, due to structural-symmetry within the variable and constant domains of heavy- and light- chains, AutoBuild is searching and applying NCS operator while it is not present, and would like to avoid the same.
How could these be done either in GUI or in command-line?!!

Many Thanks in advance, 
Best Wishes
Partha
PS: Of course, when the data is at "high-enough resolution", I build Fab model manually after MR and Refinement. But, in the above case, resolution is only 3-ish angstrom.
