Selected examples of (2mFobs − DFmodel, φmodel) nuclear density map improvement after re-refinement of structure 1c57 (neutron data). Left, original structure; right, after re-refinement in phenix.refine. Maps are contoured at the 1.5σ level. Note the improved orientation of exchangeable H/D atoms at Ser and Tyr O atoms. The systematic lack of density around H atoms is a consequence of the negative scattering length of H atoms and related density-cancellation effects (Afonine, Mustyakimov et al., 2010). |
