<div>It should be ok if the occupancy is zero. Just check all the PDB files written to make sure that is so.</div>

<div>Tom, just out of curiosity, do I need to delete the ligand or can I just set the occupancy to 0? AFAIK, Phaser does the latter automatically anyway.<br>

Hi Mohamed,<br>
<br>
If you have good data to 3 A and a search model, go ahead and use MR to solve the structure. Just delete the ligand from the search model and you won't have model bias and you can see if the ligand is there.<br>
<br>
You might use the anomalous signal to check your solution by calculating an anomalous difference Fourier after you have obtained an MR solution. It should have a peak at the position of your Mo atom, perhaps visible even if the anomalous data are pretty weak.<br>
<br>
The signal in your anomalous data may be much smaller than the errors in measurement in some of your datasets. In that case you wouldn't be able to see it.<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
Tom T<br>
