Jason,
While phenix.refine is an incredible powerful tool for structure
refinement, as Nat said earlier some re-building may be required.
Without re-building addition of ramachandran restraints may only mask
problems rather than fix them. Fortunately, Cbeta deviations are
quite sensitive and as far as I know are truly independent structure
validation measures see:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12557186
quoting from the abstract:
Cbeta deviation is sensitive to incompatibilities between sidechain
and backbone caused by misfit conformations or inappropriate
refinement restraints.
Good Luck,
-bob

Hi, I have tried to regularize my protein structure in coot and use ramachandran restrain to improve statistics (and then release them). However, I can not make the c-beta deviation be zero. Is there some special way to improve c-beta deviation? Thanks.
