Dear Dhanasekaran, There are many examples of molecular replacement failing even in cases where the model and target structure share 100% sequence identity. These examples illuminate several factors that MR search strategies are sensitive to, including percent sequence identity and related paramet

Perhaps some "correct" solutions were thrown out due to packing considerations. There are a few methods to address that possibility. You could use a search model with large loops trimmed, especially is a sequence comparison shows they are probably not conserved. Or you could search with a sui

Dear crystallographers, I have solved a structure of a glucose binding protein of CE4 family. When I try to solve the structure using the same CE4 family enzyme as search model, it failed for many case. Finally, I solved the with a same family enzyme used as searc
