Hi,
I have a bit of a mystery that I cannot figure out. I took a pdb file and back-calculated the structure factors in CNS and then merged my calculated F's (and fake sigmas) with observed F's into one file. So, the hkl file has both Fcalc and Fobs with fake and real sigmas, and the test set. Next, I made a 2fofc map, with Fcalc's and sigma and it looked fine. Then, I removed some coordinates from the PDB file, ran generate, and made a new 2fofc map with the same parameters and input hkl with this new pdb. I looked at this map, and the density from the coordinates I removed is gone! Why would the density disappear? I haven't found an obvious error, but there must be one. Any ideas?
Sincerely,
