GeoStd seems not to have an files. Is it only available via SVN for now? The GeoStd parameters still need some work. The equivalent hydroxyls are not symmetric. One of the dihedrals has a base angle of -175.0 instead of 180 (or +/-60). One has an esd of 30.0, and the others have an esd of 20.0. The hydrogen ESDs also seem a bit too tight, and probably should have a periodicity of 3. They are an improvement, but I don't think automated parameterization will ever be perfect.

It is in the nightly builds if you are inclined. You are also free to download the restraints from the GeoStd open source project.

Nigel, I am using PHENIX 1.4-6, which is newer that the most recent version on the PHENIX web site, other than "nightly build" versions.

I think you may need to upgrade your version of PHENIX. In the current version, the periodicity is 3. I have recently been using eLBOW, the Chemical Components library and the Monomer Library to improve any residue restraints that have short comings. These are freely available at Source Forge from a project called GeoStd at http://sourceforge.net/projects/geostd
Its included in more recent PHENIX versions in $PHENIX/chem_data/geostd

I found that residue TRS has different dihedral target angles for the three hydroxyl oxygens, which are actually all equivalent. They have a periodicity of 1, but should have a periodicity of 3. What is the best way to handle such discrepancies?
Most ligand parameters are probably auto-generated based on a reference structure, and there is probably a lot of conformation bias. In this case, it seems that parameterization should have been able to detect symmetry. It would be nice if parameters could include information about whether a human has done any validation. Actually, a ligand Wiki might be nice, where people can easily put comments, even if they are not sure about how to improve the parameters.
