Hi Jiang Xu, (Phenixbb added as I suspect this is Phenix not coot that has caused your issue)
Did you check the "add hydrogens" button in Phenix.refine? Sometimes this can erroneously add a second H to the ND of glycosylated Asn residues. (I assume this is because bond distances in the input PDB file fall outside Phenix's definitions of an Asn-NAG link). If the second H is added, this breaks the refinement of the Asn-NAG bond. My work around is to run "Ready Set" to add hydrogens as a separate job, and then manually inspect and correct the Asn residues as necessary before running Phenix.refine and _not_ checking the "add hydrogens" box. I hope this fixes your problem. Good luck, Dave -- Dr David C.

Hello guys, I have a problem building and refining an xtal structure. My protein has a N-glycosylation site and I want to add N-acetylglucosamine and manose to my protein structure. I used Coot's carbohydrate module and let Coot automatically build the sugar chain to the electron density. It worked pretty well, but I noticed that the bond between the amine group of asparagine and the C1 of N-acetylglucosamine is depicted as a dashed line, rather than a solid line in Coot. After refinement of the structure using Phenix.refine, I found the bond just disappeared, and the amine group still has two hydrogen atoms, which should contain one hydrogen atom. So, how to solve this problem?
