Re: [phenixbb] refinement in low resolution

I did rigid body refinement after MR , molecule did not move much and R/Rfree stays 45 % Did you define multiple rigid groups for rigid body refinement? If not,

thanks Pavel. I did tight the restrain and R/Rfree drops to 37/41 % with rms for the monomer is around 0.12. Also I did surprise to see the ranges of R factor while doing simulated annealing but final R-factor goes high to 37/41 % ? Is it anything wrong with convergence? step= 50 temperature= 2284.4 rmsd=0.6256 r_work=0.3061 r_free=0.3564 step= 75 temperature= 2174.4 rmsd=0.7957 r_work=0.2978 r_free=0.3483 step= 100 temperature= 2064.4 rmsd=0.8910 r_work=0.2978 r_free=0.3681 step= 125 temperature= 1954.4 rmsd=0.9354 r_work=0.2977 r_free=0.3710 step= 150 temperature= 1844.4 rmsd=0.9684 r_work=0.2953 r_free=0.3793 step= 175 temperature= 1734.4 rmsd=0.9924 r_work=0.2928 r_free=0.3819 Is it possible to ncs averaging , especially multi-domain averaging in heterodimer molecule using phenix. thanks rn ________________________________ From: Pavel Afonine To: PHENIX user mailing list Sent: Tue, December 15, 2009 11:14:51 AM Subject: Re: [phenixbb] refinement in low resolution I am trying to refine the model in low resolution and there are then it's not too surprising that it didn't move much since the MR programs typically do a good job on rigid body refinement anyway. So, use "sites.rigid_body" keyword for this. If I do simulated annealing or any type of refinement

(group_adp), Rfree is high and R goes down, but

the if do the superposition of the monomer, rms is 1.5 to 1.8.

Try SA in torsion angle space (main.simulated_annealing_torsion=true). At this resolution you may need to refine one ADP per group (say per residues or any bigger selected group of atoms). Also, use TLS. Use NCS if available, and you can defined it's strictness by adjusting appropriate weights. Pavel.
