There are some options, but in the end you might have to accept a fairly large number of [[Ramachandran plot]] outliers. | There are some options, but in the end you might have to accept a fairly large number of [[Ramachandran plot]] outliers. | ||
Try [[PHENIX|phenix.refine]] with the keyword "discard_psi_phi=False". Then the psi and phi dihedral angles should be restrained according to the CCP4 monomer library definitions.

Remember that [[Ramachandran plot|phi-psi | Remember that [[Ramachandran plot|phi-psi angles]] are excellent for [[validation]] purposes but only when they are unrestrained. If you restrain them, you lose this option! | ||
You can also try restraining alpha-helices hydrogen bonding, and beta-sheet cross-strand hydrogen bonds. This can be done in [[REFMAC]], [[PHENIX|phenix.refine]] and [[CNS]] ( | You can also try restraining alpha-helices hydrogen bonding, and beta-sheet cross-strand hydrogen bonds.

If you are really desperate, another option could be to use harmonic restraints in [[CNS]] to keep your backbone fairly fixed in parts of the map where you believe the secondary structure is correct (most likely alpha-helices). You could also fix main chain elements completely (in any refinement program), but it is definitely preferable to leave some room for change in the xyz | If you are really desperate, another option could be to use harmonic restraints in [[CNS]] to keep your backbone fairly fixed in parts of the map where you believe the secondary structure is correct (most likely alpha-helices). You could also fix main-chain elements completely (in any refinement program), but it is definitely preferable to leave some room for change in the xyz positions, and harmonic restraints are a nice way of doing exactly that. | ||
