    what exactly you are trying to achieve by making sense of Rfree and
    its relation to Rwork in resolution shells? Just curious..<br>

          <div>For the example I gave R /Rfree difference seems high.
            Can this still be down to statistical fluctuations?</div>

            <br>
            you may also want to take into account that the variation of
            Rfree is<br>
            estimated as Rfree^2/k, where k is the number of reflections
            in the<br>
            shell. If you only have e.g. 100 reflections there, this
            might simply a<br>
            statistical fluctuation, as far as I understand.<br>

              &gt; I calculated/validated several PDB structures in
              Phenix.Validation (GUI)<br>
              &gt;<br>
              &gt; The R/R-free (overall) is<br>

              &gt; Further down I looked at the R/R-free for the highest

              &gt;<br>
              &gt; Its 0.2538/0.2446<br>
              &gt;<br>
