Dear all,
I am refining a model based on a 4.3A EM density map,and there are some cis-peptides in the beginning model.
By using phenix.real_space_refine with a very low cis-peptide threshold (0), all the cis-peptide become to the twisted.

The start Omega angle:
     cis-proline:             31.63 %
     twisted proline:         0.00  %
     cis-general:             11.11 %
     twisted-general:         0.05  %
The final Omega angle:
     cis-proline:             0.00  %
     twisted proline:         27.55 %
     cis-general:             0.00  %
     twisted-general:         6.04  %

My questions are:
1) What is the twisted peptide?
2) Is the amount acceptable at the current resolution?
2) How to refine it?

Thanks in advance!
