Same thing to me. I was able to assign a PEG molecule to a similar density.

Thank you. I will try to fit it with a piece of PEG.
Best wishes.

Hi Jiamu,
This is almost surely a nic piece you PEG3350.

*Subject:* [ccp4bb] unknown symmetric density
Dear All,
Here I am refining a 2.0 angstrom resolution structure of a
protein in complex with a 18mer peptide. Now the refined model has
a R/Rfree value of 0.206/0.266. But there is no obvious density
for the peptide. An interesting observation is that some strange
density is located in the proposed protein-peptide interaction
interface as shown in the attachment. The shown map is SACO map at
1.0 sigma level. The strange density is near the 2-fold axis of
the crystal cell, so the density is also 2-fold symmetric.
Although I traced it with solvent molecules, I believe it is not.
It seems not the peptide, either. But I can not image what it is.
What do you think?
The crystal condition contains Tris, Hepes, NaCl, ZnAc, and PEG3350.
Thanks.
