At least last fall, the state of the art for getting your T7-transcribed RNA to start with a triphosphate in phenix was to add this file (edited for your chains, of course) through the gui (if you use the gui). Thanks to Deepak Koirala and Nigel Moriarty for help in working this out.

Dear all, I would like to add a GTP residue to a nucleic acid chain. For so I followed the following steps in coot: add monomer from library, GTP, changed chain ID and residue number accordingly, and then Extensions --> Modelling --> link 2 atoms. I got a dashed line between the 3'O of the GTP and the phosphate of the neighboring nucleotide, and then I used the real space refine tool. Up to here, it all looked promising. In phenix refine I run elbow and readyset and provided cif files, but after phenix.refine I find out that the link between GTP and it's neighbor is gone. How to preserve the bond? Thank you very much in advance!!
