Hello, van der Waals interactions are very weak, this is why we usually speak about van der Waals contacts rather than interactions. These are usually in the range of 3.5-3.8/4 Å (smaller than that may indicate a close contact or steric clash of an atomic model under refinement),

hi dharma your ITC data suggest at least that your complex also exists in solution ITC never will answer to the question whether this is a “biological” interface one way getting around this, would be to check the response of your mutant versus WT in biological assay ALA substitutions

Gerado John is correct that you can modify the restraints model to include a covalent bond. Also in more recent version of Phenix, if the input geometry is approximately correct, the bond can be automatically linked. If you send me the input file, I'll take a closer look. Cheers Nigel ---
