Hello,

I second Sudipta's point.  I had a dataset at 3.3 angstrom resolution that was 
initially indexed as P21 21 21, but did not produce a convincing MR solution.  
The trick was performing the MR search for all possible spacegroups in the 
pointgroup.  The correct spacegroup was P2 21 21.


Good luck,

Zach

in crystal structure

Hello Zhou,

How sure are you about the space group of the solution? Any signs of twinning 
or t-NCS?

Best,
Sudipta.

Hi All

My protein is dimer both in protein buffer and crystallisation reservoir, which 
is confirmed by calibration column Supderdex 200 10/300 increase.

The crystal can diffract to 3 and the space group was determined to be P212121.

The solvent content and Matthews coefficient shows
1 copy, solvent content is 74.5% and Matthews coeff is 4.82
2 cpoies, solvent content is 49% and Matthews coeff is 2.41 .

I did MR. I can only get one molecule in ASU and the R work / R free is 
0.31/0.35 after several cycles of refinement. There are some uncontinued 
electron density, which indicating may be one more chain is there.

I tried to search the other one by disallow the packing test or increase the 
packing cut off value in phaser, I can get two molecules, but only one has good 
fit to the electron density map. The other chain hardly have any electron 
density.

Does anyone have any experience regarding this situation? We appreciate your 
help.
