[phenixbb] ADP restraints under TLS+individual ADP

[Tristan Croll]

Hi,

When taking a structure I refined in Phenix (using a TLS + individual ADP model) into a different refinement package, a colleague noted a host of warnings related to mismatched B-factors between the sulfur atoms in disulfide bonds. If I understand correctly, this arises due to Phenix falling back to a Ulocal only ADP restraints scheme and, in particular, the choice to set

adp_restraints.iso.sphere_radius  = 2.0.

The length of a disulfide bond being 2.05A, this means that as long as the geometry is correct the B-factors of the two sulfurs are never restrained to each other under these conditions.

Cheers,

Tristan
