In my macrocyclic peptide I have a lysine linked to glutamate via an isopeptide 
bond between the lysine NZ and the glutamate CD.  I have this defined for 
Phenix refinement in a .phil file and it refines just fine. It would be nice if 
this could be translated to Coot so I could refine these linked residues 
without the two residues repelling each other. I have tried to use Jligand to 
make a new cif record for a LYS-GLU isopeptide bond, but it seems to have no 
effect on real space refinement in Coot. Maybe I'm missing something. I have 
the link record in the PDB header and I see the link in Coot, but the link does 
nothing to keep the lysine from repelling from the glutamate when I use real 
space refinement. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. What I have been 
doing instead is manually moving atoms and letting phenix refine, but I'd 
really love to let Coot refine too! -David
