Hello Marina,

In short: at first I'd build the model and refine it with the untwinned P3(2)21 
data set until convergence. Then, I'd process all other data sets  (including 
the twinned ones) in that space group as well. If using XDS, I'd use the 
XDS_ASCII.HKL of the untwinned data set as REFERENCE_DATA_SET for these other 
data sets; otherwise use POINTLESS to ensure consistent indexing (that space 
group has an indexing ambiguity; this often goes with merohedral twinning).

Then, refine the good model against the twinned data sets, and switch on twin 
refinement. If the maps show your ligand, build it into the model and continue 
refinement.

best,
Kay
