When I deposit at the EBI the deposition software moves solvent to assocoiate with a protein molecule. If that has been done, those messages would mean that the solvent is indeed unconnected to anything. It seems a bit unlikely chemically - and I would check the maps..

 has something beem missed?

Probably, you have built water molecules that are associated with
symmetry-related macromolecules rather than the host molecule.  Turn
symmetry on, check the nearest neighbors of the offending waters, and move
the waters close to the host molecule if appropriate.  I believe you can do
this with the CCP4 program watertidy.

Dear All,

In depositing a pdb file, after validation step, an error comes up:
*Solvent Atoms* The following solvent molecules lie farther than expected
from the protein.

Can any one give me some advice about it?
deleting these water molecules results in a large increase of R factor, by
the way.

Thank you in advance,

A
