=== Ensemble refinement, and molecular dynamics ===
# Direct Observation of Protein Solvation and Discrete Disorder with Experimental Crystallographic Phases. Burling FT, Weis WI, Flaherty KM, Brünger AT. Science (1996) 271, 72-77 [http://dx.DOI.org/10.1126/science.271.5245.72]
# Heterogeneity and Inaccuracy in Protein Structures Solved by X-Ray Crystallography. DePristo MA,de Bakker PIW, Blundell TL (2004) Structure 12, 831-838 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.str.2004.02.031]
# Ensemble Refinement of Protein Crystal Structures: Validation and Application. Levin EJ, Kondrashov DA, Wesenberg GE, Phillips GN, Structure 15, 1040 - 1052 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.str.2007.06.019]
# A comparison between molecular dynamics and X-ray results for dissociated CO in myoglobin. Vitkup D, Petsko GA, Karplus M. Nature Structural Biology  4, 202 - 208 (1997) [http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nsb0397-202] (Vitkup et al showed that fitting a single model to MD-simulation derived "data" gave ~20% R, which means multiple conformers are sufficient to explain the "R-Factor Gap" between the 20% usually obtained for macromolecules, and the 5% routinely obtained for small molecules)
 
=== Electron microscopy and X-ray ===
# Elucidating the medium-resolution structure of ribosomal particles: an interplay between electron cryo-microscopy and X-ray crystallography. Harms J, Tocilj A, Levin I, Agmon I, Stark H, Kölln I, van Heel M, Cuff M, Schlünzen F, Bashan A, Franceschi F, Yonath A. Structure 7, 931-941 (1999) [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0969-2126(99)80120-8]
 
=== NMR versus X-ray ===
A couple of papers analysing and comparing NMR and X-ray methods/structures:
# Combining experimental information from crystal and solution studies: joint X-ray and NMR refinement. Shaanan B, Gronenborn AM, Cohen GH, Gilliland GL, Veerapandian B, Davies DR, Clore GM. Science (1992), 257, 961 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1126/science.1502561]
# X-ray Crystallography and NMR: Complementary Views of Structure and Dynamics, Nature Structural Biology 4, 862-865 (1997). Preprint [http://atbweb.stanford.edu/scripts/papers.php?sendfile=162 available] from Axel Brunger's "publications" website.
# Traditional Biomolecular Structure Determination by NMR Spectroscopy Allows for Major Errors. S.B. Nabuurs, C.A.E.M. Spronk, G.W. Vuister, G. Vriend. PLoS Comput Biol 2(2): e9. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.0020009]
