Dear ccp4 comrades,
I have a problem I hope someone can help with. I am attempting to
index and integrate
a number of datasets which will all index (with mosflm) and scale
(with scala) in P21 with
low penalty scores and low Rmerge respectively.
However, when ipmosflm integrates, about 75% of the spots below 7
angstroms are
not predicted and even some spots to 4 angstroms are not predicted.
Changing to higher or lower symmetry spacegroups does not help,
increasing mosaicity
helps to increase marginally the number of spots being integrated,
but I don't think
this is the problem. Xtriage etc. show the data is not twinned.
Any help/ideas would be very welcome .....
Cheers,
Andy Dore

Can you successfully optimize the unit cell parameters in the GUI in
three batches over a 45-90 degree range prior to full integration? If
this doesn't work well, you may have multiple lattices in your
diffraction data. This issue bit me with an otherwise really nice data
set. I could really only index a few frames at a time, and there were a
significant number of unpredicted spots due to the other lattices
present. Close inspection of the data, and failure to successfully
optimize unit cell parameters over a wide rotation range pointed out the
problem.
Cheers,
