The sizes of several arrays (such as the ones that store atomic positions) are
defined at compile time, and your structure appears to have run up against one
such limit. Here's what the CNS website says:

Great idea! As being relatively new to the field, I definitely find

the precipitation and the size of the crystals improved. If the crystals
are large enough even if there is ppt present I would still try and

Shivesh,
You also might be precipitating out a contaminant, aggregate, isoform,
etc., and its removal from the solution allows crystallization of the
other.

I 100% agree with Jordi Benach. However, the problem with idea is that
it requires the real images in question to exist. I am willing to take any bet

Any amount, as long as we are taking about real diffraction images
corresponding to the deposited file with "observed" structure factors.
I doubt that simulated diffraction images will be shown, because they
are easy to be recognized as such

Well, I know it's not the definitive source of anything, but the

Probably easier to either just bzip2 the images (which works reasonably well
but is somewhat slow) or use one of the imgCIF "jiffy" programs to do this,

I agree to this last suggestion. For one of my protein, I had to add at
least 10 % of glycerol in my buffers to keep my protein stable while
purifying. For crystallization, I diluted it to 20 % glycerol (vapour
diffusion method) which allowed it to be stable in the crystallization

Yes. If you have folks sending you images by sftp or e-mail, then you

I have a question about some data with which I have been grappling. The crystal

I've been reading the contributions on this topic with much interest.
It's been very timely in that I've been giving 3rd year u/g lectures

For overall indexing, there are two ways

Great idea! As being reasonably new to the field, I would definitely

In the cases you list, it is clearly recognized that the fault lies
with the investigator and not the method. In most of the cases where
serious problems have been identified in published models the authors
have stonewalled by saying that the method failed them.
