Hi all, I am trying to merge and convert reflections from XDS_ASCII.HKL to mtz via pointless and aimless. Everything looks good through pointless, as far as I understand: xds reports significant anomalous correlation in CORRECT.LP
Inspection of the mtz output from pointless shows that (+) and (-) reflections are recorded using separate ISYM flags (column 4): LIST OF REFLECTIONS =================== 0 0 7 1 902 1.68 1.43 0.91 1230.80 1155.20 423.20 0.04 0.00 0 0 7 2 2 1.21 1.68 0.90 1231.40 1155.10 243.20 0.04 0.00 0 0 8 1 902 88.18 3.70 1.00 1230.70 1139.50 423.36 0.04 0.00 0 0 8 2 2 85.93 3.86 0.99 1231.50 1139.30 243.36 0.04 0.00 ... But when I run aimless as: $ aimless hklin ds5_5_E1_pointless.mtz hklout ds5_5_E1_aimless.mtz <<eof|tee aimless.log onlymerge anom on reso 2.5 end eof the output mtz file has identical values for IMEAN, I(+), and I(-), despite reporting in the logfile that: Anomalous flag switched ON in input, strong anomalous signal found Estimate of the resolution limit for a significant anomalous signal 3.93A, from the point where the fit drops below threshold 0.15 Can anybody provide me with some guidance?
