I am preparing to deposit several structures that I refined against
anisotropic data that I truncated with STARANISO. I will of course be
depositing the original data with spherical resolution limits, but it seems
that I should also deposit the ellipsoidally truncated data that I actually
refined against. To be clear, these are the same dataset but in the second
case the unmerged reflections have been rescaled and I/SIGIs that fall
outside the ellipsoid are set to empty values. I have a technical problem
with preparing the mmcif and a broader question about presenting the data.

I've tried to create an mmcif file from my mtz using
http://sf-tool.wwpdb.org, treating the two sets of I/sigI as two datasets.
For some reason, in the output file the test set flags are reversed for the
second "dataset" (whichever I choose to be second); ie, o becomes f and f
becomes o. This is a technical problem that I can correct with a text
editor, but still irritating.

More importantly, is there a way to distinguish in the file between the
spherically complete dataset and the truncated dataset that was used in
refinement in a way that is useful to future users? I have not worked with
mmcif before and am not sure what column names are permissible, nor what
would be recognizable to other users or software. I'm interested to hear
the thoughts and experiences of the community on this.

Best wishes
Kevin
