Hi, I used phenix.reduce to add riding hydrogens. After phenix.refine, the structure got a good score from MolProbity. However, if I stripped the riding hydrogens from the structure and let MolProbity to add hydrogens before the analysis, I got a much worse score, especially the clash score. Does phenix.refine refine the hydrogen positions? -- Jianghai
Hi Jianghai, phenix.refine idealizes the geometry of hydrogen atoms using the Monomer Library definitions for ideal values (if riding model is used). I presume that phenix.reduce uses some other values when adding H atoms. So it is not too surprising that the geometries of H atoms are different after phenix.reduce and phenix.refine. What is interesting though is why this has a significant impact on the clash scores. Pavel. On 8/5/2008 1:38 PM, Jianghai Zhu wrote:

Yes, I think the phenix group should figure that out :) -- Jianghai On Aug 6, 2008, at 5:12 AM, Pavel Afonine wrote:

Hi Jianghai, thanks for finding this: you find exotic problems, as always! Could you please send us the files (after phenix.refine and after phenix.reduce) so we can have a close look at this particular problem ? I can't promise to look at it immediately, but it definitely will go into the list. May be developers at Duke volunteer looking at this problem. Thanks! Pavel.

I remember that I asked a question before which probably is related to this one. The ideal bond distances between the riding hydrogen and its attached atom are different in phenix.reduce and mono library. That is why I got a huge RMSD bond value after phenix.reduce. It has been fixed after my question. phenix.refine now put all bond distance back to what are defined in mono library. However, a new problem rises from this fix. When using MolProbity to get a new set of riding hydrogen atoms, it will give a pretty bad clash score. If I would guess, the bond distance between the riding hydrogen and its attached atom is longer in phenix.reduce or MolProbity than the value in mono library. I believe this is a general problem and a "standard" bond distance should be used in different programs, especially those programs in one package. -- Jianghai PS. Pavel, I think you can test this one using any pdb file. If you still need my file, I will be happy to send it to you. On Aug 6, 2008, at 3:03 PM, Pavel Afonine wrote:

Hi, Does phenix.refine provide a blur parameter for the experimental phases? I didn't find it in the manual. -- Jianghai
Hi Jianghai, currently you cannot do it in phenix.refine. Pavel. On 8/6/2008 8:20 AM, Jianghai Zhu wrote:
