In a Phaser automated molecular replacement job, it does almost everything at a working resolution and then a final refinement at a final resolution. By default, the working resolution is 2.5A and the final resolution is the full resolution of the data set. So the second-last LLG is the one computed with the working data (probably to 2.5A) and the last one is the LLG computed with all the data. Both LLG values are after rigid-body refinement.

If the final LLG goes negative, then this probably means that the model isn't as good as Phaser was assuming, and that this becomes a problem in particular for the data at higher resolution.

Best wishes,

Dear all,

In the phaser .sol file what do the two LLG's correspond to on the SOLU SET line eg

SOLU SET  RFZ=20.7 TFZ=35.4 PAK=0 LLG=1699 LLG=2821

Do they show an initial and a refined LLG or do they correspond to the rotation and translation function as in the Z scores?

I checked the appropriate web page and didn't see anything immediate.
