Re: [ccp4bb] bond angle deviation listing in refmac log

Hi Andy Yes, ARG side chain should not be planar. It was mistakenly restrained to be planar. The same rule applies for peptide planes. Planarity should only be applied (if ever) for aromatic groups. For ARG side chains the bond is sp2-sp2 and rotation around this bond is not as prohibited as

Are these related to the side chain of ARG? In the monomer library sigmas are capped from below - 1.5degree. In the PDB these sigmas might be very small and tiny differences could be given as outliers. Another reason might be that in the monomer library these two angles are identical (they are

Hi Fellows/Garib, I notice unexplained discrepancies between the PDB validation report and the Refmac log file: a. If I set in 'Monitoring and Output Options' the angle sigma for the log output reporting option to the PDB 5 sigma cutoff, I get zero angle deviations (i.e., no angle

Hi Jiang, It could have a lot of causes. What I would first check is that the chainID of the NLE is the same as from the surrounding protein, that the new NLE has the same residue number as the deleted MET. I would also check that the position within the coordinate file is the same as the
