Re: [ccp4bb] Very strange LINK cards appearing in recent structures

Dear all, we also have a lot of "fun" with LINK records when taking deposited PDB structures into BUSTER refinement. Sometimes (but not often) there are missing LINK records, but the vast number of problems is due to erroneous LINK records added by annotation software it seems (based on a cut-off

I also should backtrack a little. I assumed that Anandhi has good data reduction with good statistics, no data problems (such as twinning), a good molecular replacement solution, and refinement stuck, but he didn't give any of those details. What are the R and Rfree values, the RMS bonds & angles

Okay, I'm an idiot. The letter did say molecular replacement. I have no excuse for being so blind. I do stand by my statement: I don't see that an average B factor of 82 A^2, by itself, indicates any serious problem with a model at 2.65 A resolution. I have generally found that the ave

Did I miss a follow-up letter with more information? All I've seen is that Dr. Anandan said that there was a model based on 2.65 A resolution data with an average B factor of 82 A^2. Does this fact alone call for weeks of work attempting to remove model bias? Dr. Anandan didn't even say this

Hi Tristan, Erroneous LINK records happen quite a lot and used to be the combination of aggressive annotation software and depositors not paying attention to the comments from the annotators. They make up a large fraction of the bug reports I have sent to the PDB over the years. They are usuall

Hard to comment on PHEIX refne but check these things: such results must either mean your molecular replacement solution is wrong or there is something wrong with the data. Refinement packages will always try to match the Mean B factor to the Wilson plot B so I think the problem must be before refi
