I am probably wrong, but to me it looks like PEG. Maybe a small peptide product
of degradation?
Best wishes

Assunto: Re: [ccp4bb] Modelling unidentified ligand
Hello everyone,
Thank you for all your responses. I shall try the JCSG strategy for modelling.
Some additional information which was asked for:
* Crystallisation buffer is MES and ammonium sulphate, purification buffer
is Hepes, NaCl and TCEP
* I was using the CIF file I downloaded from the pdb UNL page
https://www.rcsb.org/ligand/UNL
* I am using Refmac within CCP4i2 interface
As far as identification, thank you for suggestions as well, I shall try them
in the future but for now I would just like to deposit.
Thank you,
Kate

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] Modelling unidentified ligand
Hi Kate,
We dealt with UNLs extensively at JCSG (Joint Center for Structural Genomics)
and deposited/published numerous structures with UNL. These are cases of
presumably “endogenous” ligands, many with potential functional implications,
with unambiguous electron density that could not be attributed to purification
buffers or crystallization conditions.
How we treated them for fitting/refinement/PDB depositions can be seen in their
PDB files and also described in these two papers, including their potential
importance and consequences. Especially, see sections 2.2, 3 and 4 in the first
paper:
https://journals.iucr.org/f/issues/2010/10/00/wd5119/index.html
And an overview of the above publication in this commentary by Ben Cravatt:
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2954220/
Best regards,
Debanu

Hello everyone,
I am trying to build a crystal model where I have clear density of an
unidentified ligand.
I would like to deposit, but do not want to mislead as to the identity of the
atoms, therefore I’ve opted to using UNL code, but then cannot get refinement
to start.
Does anyone know the procedure for building in and refining an unidentified
ligand?

Thank you in advance,
