Patrick,

The Patterson Correlation feature in CNS is meant for this type of
problem. I have two domains which only rotate about 10 degrees with
respect to one another, and it gave me the best answer.

Go look in the MR scripts under the Translation Function. PC refinement is
done just before the translation search.

Cheers,
Chris
