Hi,
Another example is 2ZW3, again a membrane protein.
Best regards,

>> Just to give a concrete example of Randy's point, PDB entry 2ts1 for tyrosyl tRNA synthetase has "layers" of molecules with no contact between the layers. This is because the domain (residues 320-419) that was providing the contacts in this direction was disordered and could not be modelled (there was very little density in this region). It is perhaps surprising that in spite of the disorder the crystals diffracted very well (2.3Å data collected on film).

>>> Actually, if you go back through the archive of CCP4-BB from the first time this came up, I think you'll find that there are real crystals with apparent gaps in the packing. This can arise because of statistical disorder, where there are two or more ways that a statistically-disordered layer in the crystal can mediate the interaction between ordered layers. So not finding a connected packing is something to look closely at and worry about, but it doesn't necessarily indicate that somebody did a bad job of making up a structure.

Is it something that has already been observed in other crystals?
