Dear All,
I have a protein crystal co-crystallized with a rigid molecule (solved by
small-molecule X-ray method). The color of that crystal is orange (native is
colorless) after 2d cocrystallization experiment. Then I collected synchrotron
data with a resolution at 1.25 Ang. I can solve it by MR.

After a discussion with a colleague a question aroused regarding
precipitants in crystallisation conditions. I must confess that I do not
know if it is a really naive question or just a stupid one (guess the
second option thought...), anyhow there we go:

In addition to the remarks of Mark and Tim, could you make sure that you are

Phenix, this is the opposite: the value is 1 for test reflections and 0 for
work reflections. So going from a PHENIX environment to Refmac,

I agree with you completely. The question then becomes why does the automatic
weighting scheme in refmac allow R and R-free to run away from each other by 8%

That's a good question ! Here is my take on it:
We are talking of say 5% PEG 2K weight per weight. So 5% PEG 2K and 5% PEG 20K

Hi Petr,
The automatic weighting scheme in the recent Refmac version that comes with

wrong with the model/data/whatever. It has just worked well for me in all
respects (Rw/Rf gap, maps quality, FOM, ligands,

I have seen this several times with newbies, when the test set is
created by phenix. It does it the xplor-way. When it comes to the free
set, refmac defaults to 0, phenix tries to be intelligent (i.e. if 1/0

Check your Rfree flag. Phenix and refmac may use different flag. Have a look
into log file. If percentage of Rfree reflections is 95% then flags need to be
swapped.
