[chimerax-users] Bond angles of Arg in ISOLDE

[Tristan Croll]

Hi Guido,

Yes, there are a few small discrepancies between the AMBER force field and the libraries used for restraints/validation in refinement packages and the wwPDB. That's one of the reasons I try not to describe ISOLDE as a true refinement package (the other being that it currently doesn't perform B-factor refinement). You'll still want to run a final refinement with your package of choice before depositing to the wwPDB. To help with that, there are the commands:

isolde write phenixRefineInput
isolde write phenixRsrInput
isolde write refmacRestraints

Just type "usage isolde write" on the command line for more details on their use.

Best,
Tristan

It seems that the parameterization of ISOLDE's force field differs from the metrics used by the official PBD validation server as I usually get complaints about Arg bond angles from the validation server (see below) even though everything seems fine in ISOLDE. Is there anything that I can/have to do about that? Or is that something that you would keep as it is and discuss with the PDB people?
