[phenixbb] autosol strategy

Hi Maia,

If your phases are good enough I think resolve should be able to build  
at least a good partial model. Otherwise, you can build it manually...  
Your resolution isn't great, but you may be able to place some  
secondary structure elements (ARP/wARP 'Quick fold' can also come to  
help here).

Perhaps another option is to solve your native dataset by molecular  
replacement using the best map you have from the MAD dataset, then you  
wouldn't need to build a model in the low resolution MAD data. Molrep  
and AMoRe can do that, probably Phaser can as well.

Good luck,


Miguel
