Hi Pavel,

What's the latest state of this default function to form an unusual covalent bond? I think it would be great useful.

Hi Nigel,

can we do it as part of a default phenix.refine, as well as phenix.metal_coordination? I see a growing pressure to do this... I think there is more harm not doing this at all then doing this always but not very optimally.

Let's keep this in mind and discuss once we have a chance.

If you have a recent version, you can use the command-line program

phenix.ligand_linking
Usage:
   phenix.ligand_linking pdb_file_name


Options:
   --version        show program's version number and exit
   -h, --help       show this help message and exit
   --show-defaults  Display defaults

to get the files needed for phenix.refine. Don't make a "super
residue" as I believe that will make life difficult when you try to
deposit to the PDB.

Cheers

Nigel

PS. Happy to help you directly if you have issues.

Hello all,

I saw a couple of posts on this from a year ago but didn't find a
conclusive answer to how to tell phenix to insert a covalent bond between
a cysteine residue  and a bound inhibitor. I have the inhibitor (a small
molecule) modeled in but haven't figured out how to insert the covalent
bond. I used PRODRG to generate the inhibitor pdb and eLBOW to generate a
cif file. The distance between the sulfur on the cysteine and the first
carbon atom in the inhibitor is 1.8A.

Do I need to run eLBOW using the protein-inhibitor pdb to generate an
appropriate cif file?

I see in phenix.refine under the PDB interpretation tab their is a box for
"add link to CIF"....is this where I need to tell phenix to insert the
covalent bond?

I guess I could just draw the inhibitor-cysteine complex as a modified
amino acid and try inserting it that way.....
