following this discussion, I was wondering how much sense it makes to use
TLS domains and experimental phases at the same time.

My take on it is that if you have low resolution data, then it makes a good deal of sense to use both experimental phases and TLS groups. But this assumes that the TLS groups are being used in place of per-residue or per-atom B-factors, not in addition to them.

But my normal way of thinking about this is in terms of observations to parameters at low resolution (not model completeness), so your mileage may vary.

I would have thought that TLS domains are better to be used when the model is
fairly complete at which state the quality of the experimental phases are
probably outrun by those of the model unless the experimental phases are
_really_ good.

What is people's opinion about this?

Cheers, Tim

Dear Ethan,

thanks for your fast answer. The pdb file does the trick. I also did not click the reset B-factor box, which I thought is equivalent to the TLS+Biso pdb. Is that wrong?
For what you are doing, it is correct to not click the box.
I just wanted to confirm what were the steps leading to the observed failure.

Every program has his special requirements and I mixed it up with a refinement done some weeks before in phenix.
So far as I know, there is still no provision in phenix for reading in
existing TLS parameters.  It always wants to regenerate them for itself.
This make it very hard, if not impossible, to compare refinement protocols
or validate previous refinements.

I'm sorry about that and thanks again for your help

Dear all,

I want refine my model using TLS plus phase information from experimental
phases.
I used the TLSMD server to generate the initial tls parameters and
started Refmac
I don't know exactly what has gone wrong.
Let's collect some more information.

- When you took the intial TLS parameters from TLSMD server, did you also
  take the corresponding modified PDB file?
  If not, that could well be the problem.

- It looks from the output that you did not tick the "reset B factors to
 20" box in ccp4i.  Can you confirm that?

After an initial round of TLS refinement Refmac stops and and claims a
problem but nevertheless writes at the end "Task completed successfully"
and does not write any file despite it claims to have it done. I copied a
part of the log file at the end of the mail
Could anyone point me to the mistake i made probably?


Thanks in advance

Christian
