[phenixbb] merohedral twinned refinement

[Peter Zwart]

1. How do the intensity statistic look like?
2. How did you choose P3121?
3. Did you try solving and refining in P3?
4. TLS?
5. How complete is your model

> I have a 2.3A data set processed with HKL2000. The space group is P3121 with
> 63% of solvent content and 1 molecule in the ASU. I used a 40% homology
> model to do molecular replacement. Both the Phaser and Molrep gave similar
> solution with good packing. After further refinement with phenix, the built
> model fit well with the 2mFo-DFc map. However the R/Rfree were stuck to
> 0.34/0.38.
>
> I rechedked the data set with xtriage and found the data set is merohedral
> twinned (with twin law"-h,-k,l", the estimated twin fraction is about 0.05).
> When I used the twin law in further refinement, the R/Rfree were only
> decreased to 0.32/0.36. Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
