[phenixbb] On refine automatically correct N/Q/H errors

[Jeff Headd]

Hi Dialing,

For cases where phenix.refine indicates that both conformations of an
N/Q/H residue clash, it is likely that some part of the model in the
vicinity of the N/Q/H residue is built incorrectly and is trapped in a
false-minima. Refinement may not be powerful enough to correct this on
its own, so your best course of action is to look at in a model
building program such as Coot and correct the problem by hand. It will
be best to examine your molecule with hydrogens present so you can see
all of the clashes. The MolProbity webserver may also be helpful to
you, or if you're using the Phenix GUI, you can launch KiNG from the
validation window which will give you the same graphical analysis that
you would find in MolProbity.

If you have further questions please let me know.

Thanks,
Jeff
