Hi, I'm using phenix for refinement and I keep getting an error. My DNA strand has a bromo-uridine in it and phenix.refine keeps crashing on this nucleotide. Here is the error: Number of atoms with unknown nonbonded energy type symbols: 40 "ATOM 2770 P BRU P 5 .*. P " "ATOM 2771 O1P BRU P 5 .*. O " "ATOM 2772 O2P BRU P 5 .*. O " "ATOM 2773 O5* BRU P 5 .*.

I think it may just be a naming thing. BRU is already in the monomer library so I don't understand why I get an error at first also without the readyset cif file. Any suggestions? Thanks, Krystle

This could just be radiation damage - assuming the Br is in the correct position as judged by the 2Fo-Fc map, it doesn't have anything to do with the restraints used. I don't know if there's a reference for this, but I was told that brominated nucleotides are extremely sensitive to radiation damage, much worse than SeMet. Did you use this for phasing?

It isn't in the version of the monomer library we distribute - many of the files in the full version are incomplete, and we don't include those. ReadySet does have access to the Chemical Components Database definition of BRU, however, which it probably used to make the restraints. -Nat
