Hello,
can you do some ES-mass spectrometry on your sample ?
There may be a truncated form in the sample and in this case the occupancy refined C-terminus would be a good solution.
Otherwise I would invent an alternative conformation with 30 % occupancy and assign very high B-factors so that it won't show up.

Dear CCP4-BB,

after refining a fairly high resolution aldose reductase structure (0.96 A) we observed negative Fo-Fc density (-3.0 sigma) for the three C-terminal residues (314-316). However, the 2Fo-Fc density clearly showed the position of these residues without indication of a second conformation for these residues. Therefore, we decided to refine the occupancy for the entire 3 residues, which refined to 70%. After occupancy refinement the negative density disappeared. We are now courious if it is acceptable to deposit the structure with 3 residues only partially occupied without indication of a second conformation or how to proceed otherwise?

Thanks for any advice,

Lea and Andreas
