What do the twinning tests show? Those space groups can be suspicious, I believe.

Both Shelx and Xtriage see reasonable anomalous signal to about 7A and seem to get statistics suggesting a solution when I run SAD phasing using Autosol in Phenix. After density modification I get pretty nice looking maps with clear solvent channels and interconnected density for protein, however there is very little difference in map R-factor between the hands and the maps from both the P31 and P32 solution appear comparable in structure. Obviously DM is struggling to break the hand ambiguity, however can some one tell me if what I'm seeing represents a definite solution? And what is the best way to proceed from here? Cheers, Rhys
