Dear list members,

I have solved a small proteins structure in seven different crystal forms. 
These forms show very different symmetry, contain between 1 and 4 mols/AU and 
cover a wide pH range. I would like to know, whether there are significant 
structural changes. Currently, I have superimposed all molecules from all 
different crystal forms onto one reference molecule by hand. Is there a piece 
of software that does this analysis in a bit more clever way (e.g. taking into 
account resolution, refinement statistics, crystal packing)? I heared about 
ESCET from Thomas Schneider, but so far I could not try it out. In the end, I 
would like to present a figure that shows rigid structural parts in blue and 
flexible parts in red (e.g. via some value in the B-factor column).

any suggestions or comments ?

thank you!
