Looks like oxalate with two water molecules nearby. Oxalate is a fairly
common product of PEG oxidation.

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] Identifying an unknown ligand
Some more info about this structure:
Crystallization conditions: Glycerol, 0.1700M NaOAc, 25.5000% PEG-4000,
0.1M TRIS pH 8.5
This does not sit on any crystalllographic symmetry axis.
But it sits right between two monomers and the NCS 2-fold axis.
The protein is chemotaxis protein CheX.
Environment: Some main chain amide Ns around it, as well as phobic side
chains.
No peak in anomalous difference fourier map.
Thanks
