Ian is right, the NCS symmetry between 3 copies of molecules is indeed 2-fold(see the matrices below). This clears my confusion on the way LSQMAN and LAQKAB print their rotation matrices.

However, my question on DM got unanswered: why DM gave good results only if I provided NCS symmetry with EULER angles but failed with the rotation matrix input(I have tried either ROTA MATRIX or OMAT options assuming program handles them differently, also tried running script and CCP4i GUI separately).

Maybe it's an NCS 2-fold?  A 2-fold rotation matrix is its own
inverse/transpose (because you get the same result rotating +180 as
-180, which is obviously not true for any other axis order) so the CCP4
& O matrices would be the same for that special case!

A related issue is the rotation matrix convention. I recall the
matrices given by LSQMAN and LSKAB were used to be
transposed to each
other. But this time I found they were identical for the same NCS
transformation. Has one of these two programs changed its
convention lately?
