Hi Edward,

I am a last-year grad student working at a Max Planck Institute in Potsdam, 
Germany. My thesis is concerned with a Ca2+ binding protein. I collected full 
set of backbone relaxation data of the apo and holo form at two fields (600 and 
750) and saw a slight difference in R2 (about 10% decreased in holo form), some 
difference in R1 (slightly increased in holo form), and no change in NOE. 
However, after I run model free analysis (using the holo structure for both apo 
and holo form since no apo structure is available, all 9 local_tm models, and 
all diffusion models), I saw a global tm difference of more than twofold and 
tremendous changes in s2 values in both forms with up to 50% decrease for the 
holo form. Is this a likely outcome? I do not know if I should trust model 
selection especially since the oblate model that was chosen needed about 200 
iterations to converge. I used the Newton minimizing method. Below, I copied 
the AIC output from the console and the corresponding global tm values.

I'd be happy for any advice!

Thanks in advance,

Jonas
