_atom_site.disorder_assembly

Name:
_atom_site.disorder_assembly

Alias:
_atom_site_disorder_assembly

Definition:

   
     A code which identifies a cluster of atoms that show long range
     positional disorder but are locally ordered. Within each such
     cluster of atoms, _atom_site.disorder_group is used to identify
     the sites that are simultaneously occupied. This field is only
     needed if there is more than one cluster of disordered atoms
     showing independent local order.

Examples:

A disordered methyl assembly with groups 1 and 2
B disordered sites related by a mirror
S disordered sites independent of symmetry

Type: Code
