Currently, the only way to check whether a bond is being made is to look in
the .geo file produced by phenix.refine. I'm guessing that you are using a
visual check in Coot after refinement to see if the ligand is bound. Coot
is using LINK records in the PDB file which phenix.refine doesn't currently
write so you can not use a visual clue to say that the bond was not formed
in refinement. Coot is a different program and creates representations of
bonds from different inputs. If you used PyMOL to view the model, the bond
may have been drawn on the screen for you because PyMOL uses the distance
between two atoms to draw a bond on the computer screen.

We are currently trying to build a model that has a nonstandard ligand that is covalently bonded to two peptide chains. We've placed the ligand and linked it using Coot, but phenix.refine keeps removing the links. We generated the restraints using Elbow and wrote the .edits file using phenix.link_edits, but phenix.refine is still removing the links. We also tried turning on automatic ligand linking in phenix.refine, but that didn't work either. Any advice?
Thanks.
Courtney
