Thank you Ian.
To clarify,  I actually want to compare the new PDB file to the old MTZ
file to see how well the residues fit. This is why I mentioned that I have
the old MTZ file I generated from SF's which I got from the PDB.

I am not trying to improve the deposited structure, I am trying to get a
metric of how "bad" the residues become if I change certain residue phi and
psi values when I fit into the original electron density.
