Hello Firdous

You are seeing two because you are displaying crystallographic symmetry and you are seeing its symmetry mate. Coot only places one (check the PDB file) but displays the second generated by symmetry. It pays to place that water molecule as precisely as possible on the symmetry axis so that refinement programs will treat this as a special position water and eliminate the extra one - i.e. make it as close as possible to its symmetry mate.

Hello everyone

I am having a difficult time fitting a water molecule which is right at the centre of symmetry. Every time I am trying to fit one water molecule it fits two because of the symmetry atom is at the same place. What is the best way to solve this problem? I am talking about the water molecule where two molecules are paced at one place (4th position in the semicircle having both pink and purple).

Thanks
