Santhosh:

Modern molecular replacement programs, e.g. PHASER and MOLREP, look for and 
take, at least translational, NCS into account.

Modern refinement programs, e.g. BUSTER, REFMAC, and PHENIX.REFINE, use LSSR 
(Local Structure Similarity Restraints) for NCS and improve geometry to 
resolutions better than 2 A (maybe even better than 1.5 A) and reduce 
overfitting. NCS should therefore be used during refinement, UNLESS one can 
prove that it is hurting refinement by increasing R-free. Even then, it may 
only require some hand editing of the residues to exclude from LSSR.

Hi every body,

Is it needed to consider NCS with space group P61 (two molecules in the 
asymmetric unit ) during molecular replacement and refining at a resolution of 
1.9 A.

How it will effect processing of the data ?

Please provide your suggestions.
