ID 1
Refinement Space REAL
Refinement Protocol OTHER
Refinement Target Comprehensive validation (cryo-EM)
Overall B Value 118.80
Fitting Procedure ?
Details The atomic model was fitted into a low resolution (5 angstrom) EM map; therefore the coordinates should only serve as a general visual representation and should not be looked into detail. Initial docking of the atomic model was done in ChimeraX. Coot and Phenix were used for real-space refinements. Geometry minimization in Phenix was used to improve the RNA atomic model.
