Then I suspect the sequence is overriding the model.
My preferred approach.
Get a sequence alignment from somewhere and use CHAINSAW to edit the
model you want to use. That is documented! And it will edit both
monomers in turn I believe..
Then you will have a dimer with the appropriate sequence editing done
for you.
Now give that toMOLREP without any sequence. Now I am pretty sure it
will use your whole model.
It will determine the non-cryst tramslation and apply it automatically
to all copies I guess but if you have strong NCT then it usually more or
less relates allmolecules..
.
Pseudo centring - what do you mean by that?
