• Macromolecular structure determination using X-rays, neutrons and electrons: recent developments in Phenix (2019, background): “For typical cases involving crystals of medium-sized proteins diffracting to moderate resolution, the sequence identity between the molecule and the homologue should be greater than 25–30% and the r.m.s. deviation between C atoms should be less than 2.0 Å (Taylor, 2010).”
