Structure of a 13-fold superhelix (almost) determined from first principles

A peptide fortuitously crystallized to form a motif exhibiting 13-fold non-crystallographic symmetry as judged by self-rotation function analysis. Molecular-replacement phasing used a small α-helix as the search model and was only successful with the recently deployed ARCIMBOLDO_LITE.
