Thanks all for your suggestions,

Here's a little summary of my recent tests.
I am currently using "WEIGHT AUTO" and BREF MIXED with a pdb file that contains 
ANISOU definition for all atoms except hydrogens.

Final results for "BREF MIXED" refinement :

                      Initial    Final
           R factor    0.0880   0.0867
             R free    0.0932   0.0925
     Rms BondLength    0.0174   0.0189
      Rms BondAngle    2.8613   2.8740
     Rms ChirVolume    0.1076   0.1146

Final results for "BREF ANISO" refinement:

                      Initial    Final
           R factor    0.0880   0.0874
             R free    0.0932   0.0956
     Rms BondLength    0.0174   0.0189
      Rms BondAngle    2.8613   2.8683
     Rms ChirVolume    0.1076   0.1151

In the "WEIGHT AUTO" run refmac5 uses:  "Weight matrix    137.7641"
Final results for "WEIGHT MATRIX 60" refinement:

                      Initial    Final
           R factor    0.0880   0.0872
             R free    0.0932   0.0922
     Rms BondLength    0.0174   0.0181
      Rms BondAngle    2.8613   2.8632
     Rms ChirVolume    0.1076   0.1134

I have just sent Garib different data files so that he can reproduce the 
problem one can have with H naming/dictionaries definitions.
When it happens, from the same initial pdb with "WEIGHT AUTO" and "BREF MIXED" 
but a differente cif definition (from the latest refmac_dictionary_v5.31) here 
what it gives:

                      Initial    Final
           R factor    0.0880   0.1820
             R free    0.0932   0.1869
     Rms BondLength    2.8573   2.3884
      Rms BondAngle   35.7010  34.7547
     Rms ChirVolume   10.5335   4.2429

I hope it helps to clarify the situation,
Cheers,
Pierre

Dear Pierre

Resolution seems to be good enough for full anisotropic refinement. Why don't 
you try this and see if it stabilises refinement.

Garib

Dear Ed,
Not in my case. I still do *restrained* refinement.
I use:
refi type REST -
   resi MLKF -
   meth CGMAT -
   bref MIXED
ncyc 10
blim 0.1 200.0

With both: weight MATRIX 50 or weight AUTO it gives the same problem.
I have also tested the latest refmac5 version (Refmac_5.6.0119) and latest 
dictionaries (refmac_dictionary_v5.31), but it still produce the same error, 
directly from the first cycle.

I can give more details and files off-list if requested.
Cheers,
Pierre

Just to verify, is this by any chance *unrestrained* refinement?

Dear Kenneth A. Satyshur,

what is your weight set to? If it is set to 'auto', try setting it to a
specific value and lower that value until the explosion stops.

If this happens at low matrix values (at 1.24A it should be way above 5
or 10 for a well refined structure), your resolution might not be 1.24A,
i.e., you may have integrated noise (check I/sigI over resolution shells).

Tim

P.S.: I wonder what power somebody might have to _force_ you use a
specific software version...

Rfree goes form 17 to 28 and R from 15 to 25.
Coot map looks like a bunch of busted insect parts.


I use the exact same input using ccp4 6.1.13 and Refmac 5.5 and all is good. I 
am forced to use the
old ccp4 and refmac to publish. Rf 17 R 15.
thanks
