Dear Pavel

Thank you for the quick response. After reading this paper and some of its references, I suppose that Phenix.refine automatically restraint the anisotropic B-factor calculation. However, I want to restraint it more because certain atoms have very long small ellipsoids and atoms in some tyrosine rings are moving in different directions. Is there a way to play with the restraints manually?

Kind regards

Elke

Hi Elke,

phenix.refine uses similarity restraints on anisotropic ADPs as described here:

Dear All

I'm refining a protein structure with a resolution of 1.25 A, using Phenix GUI version 1.9. I am refining the B-factors for the protein atoms anisotropic and those for the water molecules isotropic. How can I restrain the anisotropic B-factors so that bonded atoms have similar ellipsoids (like the SIMU and DELU commands in Shelx making the atoms moving similarly in direction and amount)?

Thanks

Elke
