Hi Mohamed,
> How do tell phenix.refine to not move my HEM ligand around?
yes, you can exclude selected atoms from refinement of coordinates
in Phenix refinement GUI:
Refinement settings -> Modify selection for: XYZ coordinates -> Edit
-> type atom selection in "Edit selected" field (under XYZ refinement)
like "chain A and resseq 1" or "chain A and resname ATP"
However, I would rather find why correct geometry is not preserved.

If you send me files (off mailing list of course!) I will see if I can
explain it.. You can copy to Nigel too as chances are that if you choose
to send files I will be talking to him anyway.

It's hard to infer what's going on from a static image..

Is this link defined anywhere in restraints used in refinement?
