Hi Lisa,
in addition to what Joern suggested, there are two other options:
1) You can run "phenix.metal_coordination" that will create additional
restraints for Mg atoms:
phenix.metal_coordination model.pdb
2) Not the best ways of doing this, but just to mention so you have a
complete list of options. After you have added Mg atoms and optimized
them in electron density, you can continue refining your structure with
phenix.refine while keeping the coordinates of Mg atoms fixed. You can
do this, for example, as following:
phenix.refine model.pdb data.hkl refine.sites.individual="not element Mg"

Hi all,
The resolution of my structure is 3.1A. There are three Mg binds in
this structure. I try to refine it with phenix. There are cleare
extrea density before I add Mg atoms. But when I put Mg in the
central of density with good coordination and try to refine it by
phenix, those Mg move away.Does phenix need addiational paramters file
to refine Mg and keedp it 2.1A 2.1A from it coordinated atom?
Thanks.
