In our structures 1H6W (1.9Å) and 1OCY (1.5Å) we observed something similar, I suspect the domain that makes the crystal contacts is three-fold disordered, leading to layers of nothing. In our paper in JMB 314, 1137 (doi 10.1006/jmbi.2000.5204) we tried to explain it a bit, and describe what was done to try and "show up" the missing domain.

The 2HR0 structure was clearly made up, as were the data, apparently the mathematical function used to calculate the sigmas could be derived from the deposited data...It is indeed a pity that neither the structure nor the paper have been rejected. Perhaps the PDB is waiting for Nature, and Nature for the PDB...a joint letter to both might be in order to get this sorted out.

Hello,

Looking at structure 2HR0 ("The structure of complement C3b provides insights into complement activation and regulation. »,Abdul Ajees, A., Gunasekaran, K., Volanakis, J.E., Narayana, S.V., Kotwal, G.J., Krishna Murthy, H.M.; (2006) Nature 444: 221-225), I noticed the absence of contacts between layers in the crystal. Is it something that has already been observed in other crystals?

Best regards,

Fred

Dear Smith,

The sca file most likely does not contain flags. pointless can read
the sca file, standardise it to ccp4 standards and freerflag marks
random reflections. You should use the maximum of 500 unique
reflections or 5% of the unique reflections, whichever is larger.

Best,
Tim

Dear All, I have a sca file. Will you please tell me by which
software or how I can know whether the sca file contains R-free
tags? If not, by which software or how I can add the R-free tags?
And how much of the reflections I add the R-free tags? I am looking
forward to getting your reply. Smith
