please, folks, let's not go back to the dark ages and start "fixing" models by
fiddling with individual phi and psi torsion angles ! this doesn't fix any
real problems - if anything, it hides them. instead, read up on validation and
rebuilding and refinement practice before you start, e.g.:

- review paper (2000; with many references to the primary literature) - 
http://xray.bmc.uu.se/cgi-bin/gerard/reprint_mailer.pl?pref=56

- paper about rebuilding (preprint of 1997 Methods Enzymol chapter) -
http://xray.bmc.uu.se/gerard/gmrp/gmrp.html

- web-based validation tutorial -
