Dear all,
 
Sorry for a non-ccp4 question. I am trying to refine a structure of protein-RNA complex. The RNA have two 5-iodo-U in one chain. I used the following patch in generate.inp so that an I5 atom is added to the C5 atom of the Uracil.
I add patch statement at the bottem of generate.inp
 
{* any special nucleic acid patches can be applied here *}
 {===>}
 patch U5I
         reference=nil=((residue 3 or residue 12 ) and segid B )
 end
{<===}
 
However when I run generate.inp, the result is like this:
 
 CNSsolve> {* any special nucleic acid patches can be applied here *}
 CNSsolve> {===>}
 CNSsolve>     patch U5I
 PATCH>       reference=1=((residue 3 or residue 12) and segid B)
 SELRPN:      0 atoms have been selected out of   1941
 PATCH>     end
 %PATCH-ERR: to be modified atom C5    not found in molecular structure.
 %PATCH-ERR: no set found for atom to be added
 %PATCH-ERR: to be deleted bond C5    I5    not found in molecular structure.
 %PATCH-ERR: to be deleted angle I5    C5    C4    not found in molecular structure.
 %PATCH-ERR: to be deleted angle I5    C5    C6    not found in molecular structure.
 %PATCH-ERR: to be deleted improper I5    O4    C6    C5    not found in molecular structure.

The coordinate 5-iodo-U is like this :

I used 1.1 version, it seems that all the porgram in my linux machine  is OK.
It seems that the patch which I add didn't work and 0 atoms have been selected out of   1941 atoms.
Could anybody know how to add patch statement correctly in generate.inp?
Another question is how to precess phosphate group in 5' in the RNA? It seems patch also needed to be state in generate.inp.
 
Thanks very much in advance!
