[phenixbb] Phenix.refine on coordinate-optimised structures

[Dorothee Liebschner]

Hi,

The strategy depends also on the resolution of the data, so if you could
tell us that, we can give suggestions. Also the type of data, I guess X-ray
diffraction?

Out of curiosity, how do model quality metrics look like (clashscore,
ramachandran, etc) at this point? If you keep coordinates fixed, they won't
improve in refinement.

Best wishes,

Dorothee
