dear members
i am trying to solve this crystal structure but
I am puzzled with an
undefined blob

appeared at a glutamine residue after refinement. I have attached
pics of that below.
Is it a covalent modification of acid-amide side chain..
... as there is no charged environment around and density seems
continuous.
please suggest

following reagents were encountered by protein
during purification, crystallization and soaking
:
phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride
benzamidine
tris
dtt
(could it be cyclized dtt?)
k[au(cn)2]
acidic pH
isopropanol
citrate
sulfate
phosfate
