I am at the point of depositing a low resolution (3.15 A) structure
refined with REFMAC. The average B factors were 31 before I added the
TLS contribution as required for deposition which raised them to 157-
this is flagged as a problem with the deposition, although this did not
stop submssion. The estimated Wilson B factor is 80.5 (although that
will be quite uncertain) so somewhere between these two extremes.
Is it only the relative B factors of the chains that is at all
informative? Should I report the rather low values without TLS
contribution or the rather high ones in any "Table 1"? Comments
appreciated.
Thanks
Nick
