[phenixbb] Restraints file for a modified peptide

A non-standard amino acid will be automatically linked into a chain if:

1. The atoms are with 3.0 angstom
2. The atom names of the linking atoms are consistent with the standard
names, N, CA, O, C.

To add a covalent between a the amino acid and the tag, you have choices.

A. In recent versions of phenix.refine, you can use the flag
intra_chain=True.
B. You can generate some linking files using phenix.ligand_linking. This
option allows you edit the link parameters to you liking.
C (and least recommended) Have LINK records in you model and use
phenix.link_edits.

I'm happy to take a look at the specific residues in questions.

Cheers

Nigel

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