Hi Elena,

assuming the two or more ligands present are not part of the Refmac dictionary, just create one single file with the complete description of the two or more ligands (SKETCHER within CCP4i or the PRODRG2 server can create them separately, merging can be done by hand or using the Merge Monomer Libraries in CCP4i) and put that file in the Library field in CCP4i (Run Refmac5 option). That's it. Partial occupancies is only in the PDB file and not in the dictionary file.

Hi,
I wonder if there is someone out there who knows a way to trick Refmac into doing simultaneous refinement of somewhat superimposable but structurally different ligands (both of which partially occupy the same site). For example if a substrate and an intermediate are present or an intermediate and a product. Would making a library file for a "macro"-ligand consisting of 2 separate parts (separate connectivity, partial occupancy, etc) be a reasonable approach or is there an easier/proper way to refine partially present ligands?
Will be grateful for any suggestions.
Thanks,
Lena
