[phenixbb] How to define a disulfide bond between symmetry related molecules in phenix.refine

Hi Michael,

The SS bond should be established automatically if S atoms are closer then
3A to each other. If this is not the case for you, I am interested in
getting your .pdb file (or just the part with 2 residues in question) to
investigate this case.

Best regards,
Oleg Sobolev.
