If I were you, I would proceed to whatever refinement you can do, then re-evaluate twinning. At such low resolution, however, things might be hard! Is the MR solution in the PG 3 or 32? Are the PG 32 spacegroups large enough to accommodate your molecule(s)?

Subject: [phenixbb] twinning detection

I have an extremely low resolution data set to 6.5 A.  The data were collected on a Pilatus detector, indexed and further processed in XDS, space group P321.  Pointless determines spacegroup to P3221 or P3121 and L-test shows no twinning. Phenix X-triage indicates twinning, but the twin fraction varies enormously depending on the method used: Britton analysis 0.337, H-test 0.260, ML 0.022. The UCLA twin server also thinks that data are twinned. How do I evaluate which information is right?

Also, I think I found a molecular replacement solution that is correct using these twinned data.
