[3dem] microED question

Hi "",

beware of false positives with this search, and some missed entries.
Given that most of these structures could probably placed not even with
MR, but with a simple rigid body refinement with models from
X-ray diffraction, I would not
call many of these structures 'solved' by microED.

The ccp4bb would also be a good place for this question with qualified
answer.

Best,
Tim
