Sorry forgot to mention, if you go down the impurities route, there is SAUC to 
check for similar unit cells in the PDB
http://iterate.sourceforge.net/sauc/
And there used to be Nearest Cell but my phone can't find that one anymore ;-

It would be useful to know the number of molecules per asymmetric unit and the 
sequence similarity of the search model and target. There is always Molrep to 
try which is good at NCS ;-

Following on from Ivan's suggestion, SIMBAD might he worth a shot.

https://journals.iucr.org/d/issues/2018/07/00/rr5159/

The other thing you might try is handing the MR phases to the density modifying 
and autobuilding program of your choice, increasing the number of cycles by 
$arbitarylargenumber and then leaving it to run for a few hours/over night.

This has worked for me in the past when resolution was decent, phaser had found 
an obviously correct MR solution, but the domain placed was only ~30-40% of the 
total scattering mass of the ASU, and more conventional refinement was not 
yielding decent maps outside the aforementioned domain.

Good luck!

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] Another difficult MR case Are you *sure* there's no 
translational NCS ?

For example your first molecular replacement solution out of Phenix shows

EULER  293.6   27.7  288.7
FRAC -0.02  0.02  0.02
(that's "first molecule at origin in P1")

and

EULER  294.0   27.9  288.8
FRAC -0.37  0.02  0.02

which is essentially the same orientation, and a translation down one 
crystallographic axis (a*)

And this suggests to me that either Xtriage or Phaser is missing 
something here.  Does Phaser find translational NCS in its initial data 
analysis ?  Unmodeled translational NCS could cause significant problems 
with the molecular replacement search.
