Columns labelled Best TFZ model show measures on the predicted model with the best Phaser TFZ score. TFZ stands for Translation Function Z score, typically used to determine the probability of success of a molecular replacement test. v- CARMSD for molecular replacement verification CARMSD, represents the CARMSD of the molecular replacement model to the native structure after optimal unit cell translation and symmetric expansion of atoms in the space group. If this value is less than Inline graphicÅ away from the value of the CARMSD to native after optimal superimposition by rigid body alignment (column CARMSD ) then the molecular replacement solution is considered successful. Best CARMSD shows the lowest CARMSD to native of the all-atom refined models used in molecular replacement. Best CG- CARMSD shows the lowest CARMSD found in the coarse-grained models.
