What is the mean B-factor of atoms that making interactions with each metal
ion?

Use those means values as  B-factors for each Mg2+ ion respectively.

Adjust manually the occupancies, in order  the B-factors for each Mg2+ to
stay after refinement close to the above values.

Dear all

In the structure I am working has three Mg2+ ions having B-factors of 36.6,
8.6 and 20.3 Å2 with occupancy of one. The mean B-factor and resolution are
22.65 Å2 and 2.5 Å respectively. I want to adjust the occupancy of the Mg
(with 36.6 Å2) manually. Please suggest what could be the final B-factor for
that Mg, based on which I can assign the occupancy.

Thanks in advance
