When I was at Santiago de Composrela Univ., we have had success with the CCP4 program ACORN even at around 1.2 Å resolution. Also peptides, no heavy atoms.Didn't do this myself though I have to admit, but could put you in contact with the people who did. Mark J van RaaijCNB-CSICwwwuser.csic.es/~mjvanraaij

Trying MR (with Phaser) doesn’t give any results either, as there’s hardly any homologous models Has anyone encountered a similar problem please, and could provide any possible solutions? (building in heavy atoms isn’t my first option at the moment,. ) Thank you very much Regards Kristof ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1
