Thank you all for the input. I think my problem got solved. The structure was determined by cryo-EM at 3.2 A. I used phenix.real_space_refine to refine the structure using the model with no hydrogen. the statistic report directly from phenix was pretty good but not from pdb validation server

Dear Wolfram, the principles of data integration do not differ much between small molecule and macromolecular data (XDS, DIALS, HKL2000, mosflm, and SAINT can be used for either), hence the advantages reported for chemical crystallography should apply likewise for macromolecular crystals. In

Dear Xiaodi The wwPDB validation service does indeed add hydrogens using Reduce before calculating clashes. For more details of what processes are run when generating the wwPDB validation report see the on-line help

Wow, that’s pretty impressive. I hadn’t realized the high levels of DQE you had achieved. If you could make one for visible photons, you’d make a lot of microscopists really happy. I also had not realized that QE of other detectors is intensity dependent—seems counter-intuitive. JPK

Doesn’t the phrase “each-and-every single photon counting capability” imply that quantum efficiency is 100%? I don’t think this is possible—what is the quantum efficiency of these detectors? JPK + Jacob Pearson Keller Research Scientist / Looger
