Half of all X-ray diffraction entries have AltLocs, and ~90% of those (~79,000) have backbone atom AltLocs. However, not quite ~500 entries (<1%) have "substantial" separations of some AltLoc backbone atoms, namely separations averaging >2.5 Å. (The [[van der Waals radii|van der Waals diameter]] of a carbon atom is 3.4 Å.) | Half of all X-ray diffraction entries have AltLocs, and ~90% of those (~79,000) have backbone atom AltLocs. 1,035 entries with backbone atom AltLocs (1.3%) have maximum backbone atom separations of >5.0 Å. | ||
