Hi, The autoindexing picks this unit cell pretty much unambiguously, and the profiles look reasonable. These are crystals of a very large heterodimer (2177 residues), and this unit cell would have 2 heterodimers and 56% solvent, which seems reasonable. Scaling and merging produce reasonable statistics (I used aimless, not XSCALE): Overall InnerShell OuterShell Low resolution limit 19.91 19.91 3.04 High resolution limit 2.99 16.38 2.99
Rmerge (within I+/I-) 0.339 0.040 0.907 Rmerge (all I+ and I-) 0.348 0.045 0.949 Rmeas (within I+/I-) 0.360 0.042 0.994 Rmeas (all I+ & I-) 0.359 0.046 0.997 Rpim (within I+/I-) 0.119 0.014 0.393 Rpim (all I+ & I-) 0.085 0.012 0.291 Rmerge in top intensity bin 0.053 - - Total number of observations 1981569 5075 44784 Total number unique 112524 338 4559 Mean((I)/sd(I)) 10.6 53.4 2.6 Mn(I) half-set correlation CC(1/2) 0.993 0.999 0.527 Completeness 98.8 43.7 82.1 Multiplicity 17.6 15.0 9.8 Rmerge is high in the outer shell, but looks ok to me across the rest of the data. The oscillation angle is correct. The native data set also indexes with the same spacegroup and a slightly smaller unit cell (a=134 b=148 c=274), I attributed the difference to the Pt soak. The only ambiguity is one of the screw axes, so it may be P22121 or P212121. My XDS.INP has SPOT_RANGE commented out so I believe the default is to use all the data for indexing.

Does XSCALE.LP produce reasonable I/SigI statistics and expected Rvalues ? If not this might be another hint at wrong cell/spacegroup perhaps. You can try collecting spots from your whole data set with SPOT_RANGE= [start frame] [end frame] and then index the data. If you get too many strong spots you can select the top 5000 from SPOT.XDS. Is the oscillation correct in your script ? Jürgen P.S. we just collected some data on a 460Å cell On Jul 16, 2012, at 5:52 PM, Jason Busby wrote: Hi, I have a crystal with a large unit cell in P21221 (a=134 b=151 c=276) and I'm wondering if I have a problem with overlaps. I have a native dataset, and am trying to get phases. I've collected a Pt soak data set on our home source with a 0.5˚ oscillation angle, but the anomalous signal drops off after about 8Å. I am wondering if this is a problem due to overlaps at higher resolution. The Pt dataset has been integrated with XDS, and there don't seem to be too many rejects, but looking at FRAME.CBF it looks like the predicted spots are overlapping at higher resolution. You can see a zoomed-in part of FRAME.CBF here: http://imgur.com/1WShV Should I be concerned with this? The crystal mosaicity from XDS is 0.25, so fairly low. What can I do about this, should I try smaller oscillation angles?
