Dear Madhurima,
More information is needed regarding data processing/scaling, initial space
group, NCS etc...Then the community can help you better. Anyway, I hope the
crystal you got and collected the data are your target protein's...How sure
you are you? How purified your sample is? Did you
Dear Fellows of the Map,
Chris Weichenberger has now compiled the 2016 Twilight-1 (small molecule
ligand) data. Full data up to Jan 2017 as well
as annual updates are available from the Twilight page.

I agree with Herman about shorter soak. In addition, if your crystals can
tolerate any change in pH, you can slow your reaction down by tweaking this
parameter. Another thing you should think about is the kinetics of the
reaction, especially the rate limiting step. If the rate limiting step is
Dear Petr,
Another possibility is that your very good substrate got turned over by the
enzyme and that the 5 atoms with good electron density you see is all that is
left. When you know the enzymatic reaction, this is easy to check. If this is
the case, you should try a short soak (5-30
