Yes, there remains many questions beyond Adit.
I do want to emphasize that the new scrutiny in PDB is very good since it now 
includes a density fitting analysis (everything in the structure should be the 
density, right) etc.   But one has to go through the submission to generate the 
report and then has to resubmit the coordinates again if corrections are 
necessary.
We know about Molprobity, structures with good Molprobity score and clash score 
can still have some issues.
I just saw the note from Pavel and I need to check the option in Phenix.

Thanks all.

Hi

One can do an unofficial validation in Adit server ( one of the pdb deposition 
services) but i have found that although it is almost the same thing, it does 
not provide a lot of information that we get from the official report.

I found that the apps from the PDB_redo help a lot in ironing out the kinks at 
the final stages of structure refinement that are otherwise not so obvious.

Thanks

Mahesh

I was wondering if there is a way to generate a PDB validation report before 
depositing the coordinates so that one can go back and make necessary 
corrections to the file before deposition.  It will save a lot time and perhaps 
would improve the quality of deposited structures.
