Hi Su-Chang, yes, you can do it in phenix.refine and it is very easy. Make sure both molecules have the same chain id, and assign each molecule a different altLoc identifier, like A and B. Then everything else will be done automatically next time you feed such PDB model into phenix.refine. Please let me know if you need any help with this, have any questions or need an example. Good luck, Pavel. On 1/25/10 7:09 PM, Su-Chang Lin wrote:
Hi, Recently I got a crystal structure of a multiple-molecules protein complex. There are many protein subunits with the same fold. From the likelihood-weighted maps by Phenix, I can see two different subunits occupy the same position. (So I can put the model of either subunit in the same densities, but some loop regions and the C-terminal tail look different. ).
I know Phenix can do occupancy refinement with a residue that has N alternative conformations. My question is can Phenix do occupancy refinement with alternative molecules? The RMSD for two subunits is about 1.3 angstrom. The sequence identity is about 30%.
Thank you very much!
