Re: [ccp4bb]: ligands in a 2-fold axis

Hi:
As far as I know, CNS don't come with a straight forward procedure (unless
you know how to fiddle with the script) to handle molecules whose atoms
are related by a crystallographic axis and are within covalent distances.
REFMAC5 can easily deal such scenarios. Just remember to put occupancy
1/'n' for those atoms that are related by a 'n'-fold axis.
hope this helps,
Cheers,
Ravi
