Problems with non-tetrahedral phosphates can sometimes mean that the
starting geometry for the oxygens on the phosphates are switched. You
can check on possible problems in the .geo file. Look in the angle and
dihedral sections for large residuals.

I have attached a restraints file from the most recent version of
eLBOW in case that helps. I used

phenix.elbow --chemical-components=nai

If you still have trouble send me the files directly so I can investigate.

NB. Any files sent to me will be held in strictest confidence.

If I use eLBOW to create restraints, meanwhile, the ligand gets distorted during refinement (non-tetrahedral phosphates, mainly).  I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to be generating these restraints- any help is appreciated.  Thank you,
