Re: [ccp4bb] Ligand geometry obs. vs. ideal

2012-09-13 Thread Robert Nicholls
In case it helps… After you've done unrestrained refinement, you can use 
prosmart to generate external self-restraints to the current conformation 
(using the -self_restrain keyword). This is flexible - you can specify residue 
ranges, and it works for protein, ligand, DNA/RNA, waters, etc. These external 
restraints will attempt to maintain the original relative conformation 
throughout refinement. If you want any help doing this, feel free to email me 
off-board.

Cheers,
Rob

Dear Yuri,

at 1.18A resolution you can also refine using shelxl. It's basically
your choice on a per-atom-basis what properties you wish to restrain
and which to leave unrestrained.

With L.S. refinement and given enough RAM it can print esds of your
coordinates to its log file from which you can calculate all
properties you mention - some of these might already be in the
log-file itself.

Cheers,
Tim

Hi Yuri,

If you have access to mogul you can get an understanding of what your geometry 
should be based on the small molecule database.  Of course not everything is 
well represented so if your ligand is unusual this will flag up in lower 
statistical significance.

Mogul will allow you to understand how far you are from ideal.

Not really sure if this is what you might be after

I second Tim Gruene's suggestion of SHELXL; it's perfect for this.
However, there is a steep learning curve, so I strongly urge you to
pay close attention to the SHELXL (and SHELXPRO) manuals.
