By the way, I would recommend running simulated annealing with each composite omit map you generate to help in overcoming model bias. -Daniel On Sat, Nov 10, 2018 at 9:31 PM Daniel M. Himmel, Ph. D. < danielmhim...@gmail.com> wrote: > Anandhi, > > Assuming the data reduction went well, and

Anandhi, Assuming the data reduction went well, and you're in the right space goup, there could be a lot of model bias in your structure stemming from the starting model. There are a lot of things to try. I would set all the B-factors to an artificially low B-factor to help de-mask errors.

I am currently trying to solve two datasets of two different protein-protein complexes. One of the proteins is common to both complexes and there is a deposited structure in the PDB (100% identical). The other proteins currently have not been solved and share ~50% identity between them. Both

Hi Michael: It always makes me happy to see that there are people who care about this. 3.3 to 3.4 Å should be an ideal distance for this, and, as you note, the lone pair residing on the (sp^3-hybridized) nitrogen would have to be oriented for favorable overlap, which is a bit harder to deduce
