Hi Leo, you should not need an additional cif file for coot but you might need to generate one for reciprocal space refinement. If you use REFMAC it might 'fail' in the first attempt with the message 'new ligand encountered' or something similar. It will, however, generate a single cif fi

Also, if you process your data using XDS, it'll give you good indication for the strength of the anomalous signal. I find the XDS and Aimless indications to agree quite well.    Boaz     Boaz Shaanan, Ph.D. Dept. of Life Sciences

Dear Charles, I usually look at the course of CC1/2 (anom) across the resolution bins. It should be high'ish at low resolution and a good resolution cut-off for e.g. shelxd is where it drops below 30%. The certainly by far best criteria is a traced structure (for a protein, though). With shelx c/
