Hi Jianghai,
here is the copy from phenix.refine manual
(http://phenix-online.org/documentation/refinement.htm):
" When refining TLS, the output PDB file always has the ANISOU records
for the atoms involved in TLS groups. The anisotropic B-factor in ANISOU
records is the total B-factor (B_tls + B_individual). The isotropic
equivalent B-factor in ATOM records is the mean of the trace of the
ANISOU matrix divided by 10000 and multiplied by 8*pi^2 and represents
the isotropic equivalent of the total B-factor (B_tls + B_individual)."
If ANISOU records are present then the equivalent isotropic B-factors in
ATOM records are always derived from ANISOU as described above (in
accordance with PDB format).
I do not know if it is the same as TLSANL.
Pavel.
