Dear all,

I have partially rebuilt my model after autosol and now I would like to submit it for refinement to Phenix refine.

However when I do so, even though the R factors go down when I have a look at the result, it just looks awful! All the model is placed out of the electron density map, plus the electron density map doesn't look anymore like a 3 A one, but just like sausages.

Why is this happening? The truth is I have no idea...

What I do is to provide Phenix refine with overall_best_refine_data.mtz (coming from autosol) as phases, x Ray data and x Ray r free data. Additionally, the starting model and the sequence.

Any suggestions are more than welcome.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best wishes,

Almudena
