This will make some of BS negative (if B
Dear Oliviero,
On one aspect of your query, this analysis dissected the different sources
of disorder contributions to B factors:-
Diamond, R Acta Cryst (1990). *A46*, 425-435
All best wishes,

Oliviero,
We published a paper in 2003 in which we normalized B-factors
to do a comparison of relative mobility or flexibility. The reference
is: Gourinath et al. Structure 11:1621-1627 (2003). The jargon
we used for Bave of the protein is . In our case, to be
conservative in our interpretatio
Dears,
everybody knows that B-factors may change amongst different crystal
structures and that they need to be standardized when different protein
crystal structures are compared.
If I am not wrong, I remember that someone proposed to standardize
B-factors of protein atoms as “BS = B - Bave”
