Well, there is an obvious relation between cell dimensions - what is the
translation vector you find at 41%
You say the native structure has 3 monomers - I would send those
coordinates to the PISA application at the EBI, and see what the interfaces
are and make sure you are using closely packed search models - eg you may
find there is a closely packed trimer which is built using symmetry
equivalent molecules to your native solution..
Hard to answer without more information though.
ie space group, relative size od protein and complex etc..
