David, how can you justify reducing occupancy of some parts of amino acids?
I don't have to, since I didn't do it. Read again the bit about this
being a carryover from the MR model.
Cheers,
I don't understand this. I can understand deleting stuff that's not there and
reporting it as not modelled. This is factually false. The side chains are not
there at partial occupancy.
Best regards,

In my current model, I notice that several sidechains are falling apart,
despite having gone through a few rounds of refinement with REFMAC5 and
model building with COOT. The worst examples were all Glu and Arg residues.
I tried switch to the REFMAC5 executable on the updates page, which was
Refmac_5.6.0114, with no obvious difference.
Eventually I noticed that these are all residues containing atoms with
occupancy less than 1.00, which must be a carry over from the MR search
model. I set all the occupancies to 1.00 and this seems to have fixed
the problem.
This seems counter-intuitive to me. If the occupancies are set low,
shouldn't the geometry restraints be stronger relative to the density
refinement?
