So far, the native crystals diffracted best to 2.4A. The MAD data
diffracted to 2.6~2.7A. We attempted to use phenix.hyss to identify copper
atoms, and the program had hard time to identify the sites.

The protein: Cu ratio is around 1:1, which is decided by ICP-AES measurement
of the crystallization sample, not derived from the number of peaks in the
anomalous map.

The crystal contains copper as a cofactor, not a soaking derivative thing.

As to oligomerization, it could be dimer or trimer, however, we don't have a
model for it, since we dont know exactly, how does the drug link the
monomers.

I used phaser to do the MR, basically, what I did was to search one copy
each time, the top 20 solutions will be used to start the search of the
next copy. It stuck after finding four copies, and, I tried to change the
some paramters for searching, such as percentage for peaks, it did not help.
I would love the hear from experienced people about some tricks using phaser
to solve some difficult MR cases.


thanks a lot
Yi
