Hello, I have one dataset at 2.3 Å (probably it can be better, I/σ = 2.1 and CC1/2 = 0.779, the summary data is below), but when I perform Xtriage analysis it says that “There are a large number of outliers in the data”. The space group is P212121. When I refine the MR solution the Rfree stops around 30% and it doesn´t decrease (in fact if I continue refining it starts to increase). The Wilson plot graph is not fitting very well between 2.3 and 2.6 Å:
[cid:image001.jpg@01D2A87A.D704ACD0] So I decided to cut the data at 2.6A and Xtriage analysis doesn’t notify about outliers anymore. I could refine the MR solution very well, the final Rwork is 0.2427 and Rfree = 0.2730 and validation on Phenix results in a good structure. I run Zanuda to confirm the space group and it says that the space group assignment seems to be correct. Do you think that I can improve my structure and solve it at 2.3 Å or better? Or I can finish it with 2.6 Å? To publish at 2.6 Å I need to justify the resolution cut, right? What should I say? Thank you for your help!
