I agree. The data processing software might have been confused by the NC 2-fold and thought that it was crystallographic and of course, after merging the data, the NC axis will have been made “crystallographic” with superimposed A and B conformations at 50% occupancy. In this case, reprocessing in the true, lower symmetry space group, would bring better stats, but also much clearer and much easier interpretable electron density maps. However, if the distribution of you’re A and B conformations is truly random you could submit the structure as it is now. Best, Herman

I'd hope that the scaling in the lower space group would give you better stats as well, but maybe the differences in your case are too subtle? I don't know what PDB rules and regs are though.

For refinement purposes we have modeled the parts that differ with 50% occupancy, but before depositing the structure we wanted to make sure that this is the best way to deal with it and it is in agreement with PDB standards. Did anyone deal with similar cases in the past?
