Hi Anna-Carin,

According to documentation (https://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/reference/refinement.html#refinement-of-coordinates):

Refinement with minimization (selected part of model):
% phenix.refine data.hkl model.pdb strategy=individual_sites \
sites.individual="chain A"
This will refine the coordinates of atoms in chain A only.

In your case selection would look more like sites.individual='not (chain A and resid 123)' given you want to exclude residue with number 123 in chain A.
In GUI (latest version), go to "Refinement settings" tab, button "Select Atoms", "Refinement Strategy" tab and put the selection there.

Hope this helps,

Best regards,
Oleg Sobolev.

Hi,


I'm working on the refinement of a protein mutated with an unnatural amino acid that is present as two rotamers. Whenever I do refinements, one of the rotamers moves away from the electron density map. I therefore would like to

fix the coordinates for this amino acid only while continuing the refinement of the rest of the protein. Is there a way in Phenix to do this?  Any advice is welcome.


Best regards,

Anna-Carin
