Hi,

one could indeed get much better phases with the correct positions of the HA cluster. If there is sufficient anomalous signal one could use the cluster as search model for Molecular replacement using the anomalous data as described in Dahms et al. to get the exact position of the cluster in the crystal.

"Localization and orientation of heavy-atom cluster compounds in protein crystals using molecular replacement."

Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr. 2013 Feb;69(Pt 2):284-9

Cheers

If you set the atom type to "TX", phaser will use the built-in
scattering factors for the tantalum bromide cluster.  This will be
represented as a point scatterer rather than the actual cluster - if you
have very good data you may be able to actually position the tantalum
atoms in the cluster and get better phase information that way.

Dear Dr. Matthias Zebisch,
how to do the specific cluster search in phaser sad pipline? Thank you.

    Dear Lisa,

    if you have proper anomalous data I rather recommend using the
    Phaser SAD pipeline and specify cluster search.
    Worked instantly for me.

    Good luck!

        Dear All,
        I am running autosharp with a single wavelength data soked
        with Ta6Br12. This data collected at the wavelength of 1.254A.
        I told the autosharp the f' -20 and f''10.5. The autosharp
        result said these values are not correct? How can we get the
        f' and f'' of this cluster? Thank you.
        Lisa
