You will need to add the "link" line to the PDB file so the software recognises the covalent bond.
See the pdb file for 6U6K Hope this helps J From: CCP4 bulletin board <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> On Behalf Of Jiang Xu Sent: Thursday, 7 July 2022 10:15 AM To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: [ccp4bb] circular peptide structure refinement Hello everyone, I have a peptide that forms a peptide bond between the N terminal and C terminal. I used X-ray crystallography to solve the structure and found the N and C terminals are pretty close to each other with extra electron densities clearly showing that they form a peptide bond. However in Coot I could not make the peptide bond, the two terminals seem to repel each other when I do real space refinement in coot and, couldn't form the peptide bond. Any suggestions on how to do it?
