Hi, additionally: - If you want an exact map (not a finite-resolution Fourier map), use: phenix.model_map model.pdb scattering_table=electron - We are close to making a multipolar model available for density calculations, which—if I understand correctly—is what you need to simulate Coulomb potential maps. This feature is not yet available to general Phenix users, but if you send me the model off-list, I can generate and send the map back to you. Pavel On 4/2/25 10:52, James Holton wrote:
Ostensibly, all you need to do is run phenix.fmodel with scattering_table=electron . And perhaps try to come up with what k_sol should be for the bulk solvent density. There are caveats, of course, not the least of which is that, last I checked, the modified scattering from formal charges like ions vs neutral groups is not implemented. I don't actually know of a program that handles things like charges. I've heard rumors that someone was working on full QM calculations of electrons moving through matter to try and get this "right", but I have not heard about any progress for some time.
Sorry can't be more helpful,

Hi,
Apologies if I'm missing something obvious, but I was not able to find this in the documentation: is there a PHENIX tool for simulating Coulomb potential maps (aka "cryo-EM maps") from atomic models?
I'm looking for something like the molmap https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/molmap.html command in ChimeraX, but more accurate. One such alternative is the simulate program from cisTEM, but I figured PHENIX might also have something?
Thank you!
