Thank you Ian. To clarify, I actually want to compare the new PDB file to the old MTZ file to see how well the residues fit. This is why I mentioned that I have the old MTZ file I generated from SF's which I got from the PDB.
I am not trying to improve the deposited structure, I am trying to get a metric of how "bad" the residues become if I change certain residue phi and psi values when I fit into the original electron density.
