Dear Lisa,
you can specify custom bond and angle restraints by using the option
refinement.geometry_restraints.edits. Best is to save them to a file (e.g.
"restraints_edits.params") and use this as input for your next
phenix.refine run. Assuming the ideal distance for your Mg is 2.1A and the
amino acid is asp113 of chain A, the according file entry could look like
this:
refinement.geometry_restraints.edits {
bond {
action = *add
atom_selection_1 = name MG01 and chain G and resname MG and resseq 1
atom_selection_2 = name OD2 and chain A and resname ASP and resseq 113
distance_ideal = 2.1000
sigma = 0.01
}
You can check the phenix hompage for detailed documentation:

Yours,
Joern
