No. Many group use more than one version of Coot.
Ah, but perhaps you mean WinCoot? My (limited) experience is that you
can install right over the top of the old one.

The other way round.
High solvent==low resolution
Low solvent==high resolution
Since the resolution limit depends on subjective criteria (source,
dose, I/sigI limit) in our test we always had a better correlation
between Wilson B (rather than resolution) and solvent content.

how about this for a general idea:
resolution is related to order in the crystals, more order =
diffraction to higher resolution
the order is determined by crystal contacts, stronger crystal contacts
= more order
more solvent means, on average, less close packing and less crystal
contacts

In my experience, even when rather magically Phaser works with 20-25% identity,
with 2.0 data you cannot always proceed to change and refine your structure.
I would focus on the Se synchrtron data, or collect a very redundant set at the
home source, which should allow you to find the Se and do

It seems that at least some of the primary authors, were starting PhD students.
For Ajees, as far as i know, he was given the mtz as soon as he joined the lab,
told that they have this data for a while, and asked to see
if the new software would do it. Not difficult to imagine.

Hi,
If I were you, I would collect a redundant dataset (~15-20 or even higher if
possible) at home and use the anomalous flag in Scalepack/Denzo. You should
be able to pick up the anomalous differences (especially with data to 2.0A)
for Se, even at CuKa wavelength at home!
Good luck!

Hi everyone-
I was searching for some information on what might be the best way to
add N-linked sugars in coot, and Google has let me down. Searching
adding sugars in coot returns a very nice recipe for Coot Pudding.
