Hello,

I have a question, though this is not new, let me put the difficulty that I am 
facing.

I am using Multiple RDCs, N-H (1DNH) and N-C' (2DNC'), to refine a structure. I 
refined it with N-H RDCs, the problem here is refining with N-C RDCs.
As explained in the RDCPot tools and input file from of gb1_rdc 
(sa_tmv_bice_rgyr.inp), I scaled the N-C' RDCs with 8.33 factor and then 
refined using the following script:

!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
evaluate ($ksani = 0.01)            ! overall dipolar force constant
evaluate ($ksani_NC = 0.050*$ksani)  
!set echo off message off end

!----read dipolar coupling restraints and CSA----------
sani {* HN RDCs *}
   nres=1000
   class p_nh
   force $ksani
   potential harmonic
   coeff 0.0 -5.00 0.33
   @tbl/rdc_n.tbl

   class p_nc                         
   force $ksani_NC          
   potential harmonic     
   coeff 0.0 -5.0 0.33       
   @tbl/rdc_nc.tbl             
end
!--------------------------------------------------------------

But all my N-C' RDCs are violated using the above approach. I  Qsaupe is  quiet 
high, even after refinement with N-C' RDCs.  Can anyone help me in this regard. 
Can anyone also explain me why we use 0.05*ksani for N-C' instead of 
0.120*$ksani.

The following are the input lines I used for pales:

for N-H:
   45    Leu      N    45    Leu     HN    -0.773     1.000 1.00
   46    Met      N    46    Met     HN     3.230     1.000 1.00
   47    Val      N    47    Val     HN    -1.933     1.000 1.00

for N-C':
   45    Leu      C    46    Met      N     2.260     0.120 8.33
   46    Met      C    47    Val      N    -0.152     0.120 8.33
   47    Val      C    48    Leu      N    -1.753     0.120 8.33

Additionally, I have even tried without scaling N-C' RDCs but still get similar 
violations.

Thank You,
Chaitanya.
