Dear all: 
I tried to build 5’-Br-dU in my coordinate. I imported Br-dU from monomer lib 
(coot) and put it in the position, merged the molecules, renamed the Chain ID 
and renumber the residues, everything was ok. However, when I did refinement 
with Phenix (using elbow to generate cif file for Br-dU) afterward, in the 
resulting PDB, the Br-dU were always found disconnected with the adjacent 
nucleotide. In coot, I could manually fix this problem with real-space 
refinement, but it seems that the Phenix always fall to do that. 
In addition, when using real-space refinement for nucleotide in coot, the 
hydrogen always falls apart.   
Is there anyone encounter the similar problems or know how to deal with them? 
  
Many thanks!
