Hello,
The first kind replies have reminded me that I should have included
information on the Refmac weighting term - it's set at 0.1, and the RMSD
bonds/angles is 0.016/1.6 after Refmac co-ordinate refinement. So I'm
assuming that is not the problem. And I made sure to keep the same Rfree
set.
Thanks again,
Nick
