[phenixbb] Stalled refinement

[Yarrow Madrona]

Hello,

I using the latest stable build of phenx.refine (1.8.4) I recently
collected data, processed and obtained an MR solution using phaser. I am
stuck trying to refine with an Rfree sitting at 40%

I really want to know if the high Rfree is due to poor data quality or if
non-crystallographic symmetry involving a near perfect two fold rotation
between the two molecules in the ASU could somehow impede refinement. Stats
and other information is below. Thank you for any help you can give.

Visually, the quality of the data is marginal at best (streaky/ice rings in
many frames) despite good processing stats from XDS. Processing with mosflm
or HKL2000 managed to index but failed pretty bad in integration and
scaling.

Phaser gave high TFZ scores for 2 molecules in the asu (see below).

Density for a cholesterol like ligand shows up even though not present in
the search model.

MolRep Self rotation shows rotational symmetry.

The 2 molecules in the ASU are related by almost a 2 fold rotation:

RMSD, B onto A = 0.0007 after phaser
RMSD, B onto A = 0.347 after one round of refinement in phenix


Refinement using aniostropically corrected data (ucla web server:
Services.mbi.ucla.edu/anisoscale) did not improve the Rfree in refinement.
