Thanking you in advance !!


This is difficult!

First - check the Mar processing with pointless - is the SG really P3 ( or P31 or P32) or is there some higher symmetry to be found. Pointless will check all this if you can provide an unmerged list of integrated reflections, either from mosflm or xds or hkl3000

Then check the self rotation function - does it suggest there might be dimers or trimers of your protein? also does the model form an oligimer?

if so search with the oligimer.
