Dear Akanksha Tomar,

By default, phenix.refine will assign a single occupancy for the ligand as long 
as all atoms have the _same_ occupancy (0<q<1) in the initial model.
So you probably have at least one atom with a deviating occupancy.

Btw, what do you mean with "overall occupancy" -- an average q?

Best regards
Oliver

Subject: [ccp4bb] Ligand occupancy refinement

Hi everyone,

I am trying to refine the occupancy of a bound ligand. After fixing the protein 
model and water I fitted the ligand into it. Currently, I am using Phenix 
Refine with occupancy refinement for individual atoms switched on. After the 
refinement, the overall occupancy of the ligand is 0.7 and the RSCC value is 
0.86. The resolution of the structure is 2.1 Å.

Now the problem is that the program has assigned different occupancies to 
different atoms of the ligand. For some cases, it has assigned 0 occupancies to 
atoms for which there is a clear positive peak.

Why it has been done so and is it acceptable?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
