Issue with SeMet residues
Dear PHENIX users and developers, I am refining a structure containing SeMet residues at atomic (1.05 Å) resolution. The model was initially refined in Refmac5 and behaved as expected (i.e. reasonable R factors and agreement with maps). I've used this final Refmac5 model as a starting point for refinement in PHENIX 1.8.4 with standard settings, as below. phenix.refine data.mtz \ refinement.input.xray_data.labels="F, SIGF" model.pdb \ main.use_experimental_phases=false \ refinement.main.number_of_macro_cycles=5 output.prefix="model_refine"> phenix_refine_1.log Strangely, the conformations of the MSE residues are changed quite significantly after refinement in PHENIX, departing both from electron density and from the prior model. Any help would be appreciated. Best regards, Mark Mark A.

Hi Mark, it's hard to tell what's happening without looking at files. Could you please send me (off mailing list) data.mtz and model.mtz files an I will have a look. Pavel On 11/7/13 1:12 PM, Mark Wilson wrote:

Try turning off real space refinement:
refine.strategy=individual_sites+individual_adp+occupancies
(and at this resolution, anomalous_group refinement of the seleniums would
probably also be useful, but you'd have to use the anomalous data as input.)

Real-space refinement is not run by default at this resolution, so no need to turn it off explicitly. Pavel On 11/7/13 2:53 PM, Nathaniel Echols wrote:
