This is nastily anisotropic data; using the Sawaya diffraction anisotropy 
server lists principal components 23.2, -9.9, -13.3A^2; the resolution cut-off 
is roughly where the C*-axis goes to F/sigF=2 and there's a good deal of 
information left on the A* and B* axes.

There is also a large cone of missing data around the A* axis, and both missing 
and poorly-correlated reflections at low resolution - beamstop issues?

The peptide is arranged roughly parallel to the B axis.

It's not an irredeemably bad apo structure, there are a few peptide flips and I 
can rebuild quickly to R/Rfree 0.188/0.259 against the aniso-corrected data 
from the Sawaya server (first step in rebuilding was deleting the C chain, and 
it's not coming back).
