Shouldn't the ability to distinguish enantiomers also depend upon the
degree of asymmetry of the particle itself? (or pseudosymmetry, I suppose)
With SAXS it should be easier to distinguish right-handed and left-handed
lock washers than it is to tell a right-handed from a left-handed wall
screw.

It's probably much less likely than metal coordination and it's hard to

Hi Vijay,
In addition to the suggestions you've already received, the pair_fit
command in PyMol is also an easy way to align based on specific atoms. You
could use the C-alphas of relevant active site residues, or atoms of the
ligand itself, for example. Just be mindful of the bias introduced

Hi SDY,
It would be unlikely unless you have other reasons to believe it (biology,
surrounding environment), but that blob looks a little like a possible
phospho-histidine. It might be worth a looking into?
That said, buffer or metals are probably the more likely explanation.

Hi Omi,
Just to add to Preben's suggestion, something that jumps out from the
conditions you list - those are all fairly chaotropic anions. It might also
be worth looking into other anions from the same end of the Hofmeister
series (i.e. bromide), and possibly chaotropic cations as well.

The first place I'd look is oxygen conc, as you'll get different aeration

Hi Andrey,
Are you sure it's not PLP? To me that looks like you have confounding
aggregation, and PLP in two forms, perhaps only partly incorporated when
considering your protein absorbance. Check out the spectra in the paper:
Turning pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-dependent enzymes into thermostable
of attack.
Thanks for your time,
