Dear all, since SHELX is now part of CCP4, this question is not entirely off-topic.
I'm trying to solve structures by S-SAD. Substructure looks weak but ok if the right resolution cutoff is picked in SHELXD. SHELXE is happy to do its thing for a while but then gives up with a "Peptide occupancy has refined to negative value" error in one hand. The other hand is quite obviously (CC for partial structure, number of residues built) wrong, but the PDB obtained with the antimatter peptides looks like protein, is 80% complete and quite obviously the right solution. Because of the error, SHELXE doesn't write phases. How do I get these? (I could do MR, but there must be a more elegant way...) Better yet, what might cause the "negative occupancy" error and how do I avoid it? Thanks and all best.
