Is there some way to do the Refine/Improve Ramachandran plot not on the
whole molecule? The underlying command stepped-refine-protein-for-rama
doesn't seem to have any other options but the imol, so obviously no
luck.
I also tried set-refine-ramachandran-angles 1 which, afaiu, should
turn Ramachandran restraints on, but I don't see any difference (in
fact, when I refine a zone the residues move away from allowed angles).
I thought that this could be combined with stepped-refine-protein, but
that one would also tackle the whole thing, and one cannot narrow its
action to a zone.
I could, of course, delete the elements I don't want refined and later
reinsert them. Another workaround (maybe) is to fix the atoms I don't
want to move (in which case it'd be totally awesome if one could fix all
the atoms in a zone at once - is this possible?).
So, perhaps a future version may allow for all of these operations (e.g
fit-protein, stepped-refine-protein, stepped-refine-protein-for-rama) tp
be applied to a zone? Please?
Cheers,
Ed.
PS. Well, I was told long time ago that restraining Ramachandran
angles is a BAD idea because they should only be used for validation.
But this is 3A data.
