Re: [ccp4bb] Student Question--Negative Difference Density in some Histidine side chains in Iron Coordination complex in 2XGF T4 Phage Model Structure

Hi Huw Yes well spotted. Wherever I+/sigI+ are missing I/sigI have been set to zero, which means that STARANISO will ignore those reflections; however F/sigF in those cases have been set correctly to F-/sigF-. In any case a zero value should not be used to indicate missing datum. Also I notice t
