Hi,
I'm not sure if that is what you are looking for, but if you want to use
the "real space refine zone" function in coot with sugars that is possible.
For a monosaccharide you will need a cif dictionary with the restraint
definitions - in some cases present in the refmac monomer database, but

I meant to say "Euclidian distance". "Euclid's formula" has a specific meaning
that is different.

Hi everyone!
Does anyone know if there is a way of auto-refining a sugar in Coot?

This is a subtle problem and performing an analysis of this type
of error is confusing. Most of the tools we use to analyze errors
begin with the assumption that the "errors" are random and uncorrelated.
These include Luzzati and Fo-Fc maps.
My solution is to perform a null hypothesis test.
I'll jump in here, and avoid the question entirely.
Since running MR on an isomorphous crystal gives the same answer as just
stuffing in the model and running some rigid body refinement, however you decide
to handle your R free flags, you should do the same thing in both cases. The
model is

I can think of a different but related question. How significant is a

Hello Jacob,
that's correct, I'm only looking at the mathematical significance, not the
biological one. I follow the same reasoning - it is highly improbably for
all atoms to be skewed in the same direction.
In a case I'm currently looking at, I'm particularly dealing with cryo-EM

Indeed there are probably multiple conformations for parts of the

anisotropic. Maybe this is the best you can do..

Dear Wei,
you could use coot "Calculate->Model/Fit/Refine->Simple Mutate" also for
nucleic acids.
It may be worth running geometry idealisation in coot or refmac5 before
using the model in MR.

Or use Kevin's csymmatch which does wonders on scrambled oligomers that (nearly

Just a plea for less molecular replacement.
If you get a new crystal of a known protein with the same cell
dimension as youur old crystal, the most likely scenario is that it has
the same group, and you really should not try MR - use the previous
solution as input to do rigid body refinement,
