Definitely agree with what Tim is saying below. Running refinement right
after MR can be very dangerous, actually giving you a much less informative
map. Discovered this the hard way on more than one occasion.

Did you refine the model after the molecular replacement? If so, do not do
so. Look at the maps directly and try to correct for any errors you see,
especially considering the difference maps (at 3 sigma).
If you run refinement without looking at the maps it would smoothen the
differences between the MR Model and your data and that is not desired at
this stage.

Dear Tim Gruene,
This structure is a mutant of a protein previously solved. The space
groups for the wild type protein is P2(1)2(1)2(1) for one crystal and
C222(1) for the other. The conditions of crystallization for the two
proteins are different. Of course, this structure is solved by molecular
replacement. We have not added water molecules now.
We have tried both Rafmac and CNS, and the restraints was set to 0.05. But
we'll try again. Anyway, thank you all.

How did you create to this model? Was the gap between R and Rfree this
high from the very beginning? If not, try to find out where the gap became
so high.
- - did you introduce too many water molecules? You can overfit your data
this way by pretending noise were waters
- - do you have to tighten the weights of stereochemical restraints? If
you
use refmac5, try setting it to 'AUTO' or something below 0.1. A good
indicator off the weight being too high is the list of rmsd's at the end
out the refmac5 logfile.
Look at your difference map (fofc) at +/- 3 sigma, not 2 sigma. You want
that map to show as little density as possible (either 3 or 2 sigma, but 3
is more realistic, I dare say).

Hi, dear all,
Please do me a favour. I ever collected a data set of 2.7A. The space
group is C2. The model fit the 2fofc map and the omit map very well. The
R factor
is 0.26 now but R free is 0.37 and can not be minished. What kind of
error can cause such a gap between R factor and R free?
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely yours,
Li
