Re: [ccp4bb] shelxl/missing residues

Hi Sam, Ideally, with the R factor you are at, you should be able to build these residues in, using Coot/Ono/xtalview and then refine with shelxl. If you want to go to shelxl straightaway, you might want to refine res 9-86 as one chain and res 94-last residues as another. I guess you could mutate a

I'd also comment that the absolute values are quite large. Well, I have no knowledge what groups you've chosen, but for domain-sized groups, typical values are 1-10 deg**2. Values can be larger for smaller TLS groups. This is just a rule-of-thumb, but would make me suspicious whether the TLS refine

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. It appears that just adding a bfactor and occupancy flag is the way to go (eg - there's no way to make lsqkab less finicky). Since I'm just hacking this together and grep/sedding out the pairwise rmsds to pipe to another program, I'd prefer to use the eas
