We seem to have stumbled upon a problem in sfall. The two attached pdb
files are nearly identical, except the coordinates and b-factors for the
two atoms are swapped. When calculating Fs with sfall, we get
drastically different mtz files. Upon calculating the corresponding

Dear Bernhard (and others),

Andreas,
What is your setup? We have a Cu Anode with an R-Axis IV, and just due
to the geometry, the maximum resolution we can collect is around 1.4A.
That won't do for small molecules. I think if your resolution is worse
than something like 0.85A alarm bells start going off.
If you can collect
Hi Chris,
I personally would go with your "thick" dataset. 90% completeness is
not stellar, but in my opinion not detrimental, either.
I had one project that persistently yielded crystals that diffracted
to rather high resolution (2.3), but in one direction no lunes were
discernible and - cons

Sorry, this is a little bit off topic.

There are several possible causes for the problem you are

The last time I attempted similar things, I had to run rotaprep to

to rely on the Pointless Rmerge

I usually suggest it as the second try (the first try is mother liquor

As interesting as the di-Tyrosine idea is, from the picture you

Hello,
Kay is absolutely right. Just to make this clear: We all know that in
many cases, you start out with poor phases (i.e. a weak SIR/MIR/MAD or a
borderline replacement model) and your density is "modest". The prudent
thing to do at this stage is, to build only things you trust and have a

Hi all,
we encountered an odd behaviour of REINDEX.

Yuri,
I second everythig Ethan Merritt said, but would add: awk is easier and as functional as Perl for
"quick and dirty" projects. Once you need Perl's complexity, you're probably better off
moving to Python or a compiled language; Perl is powerful, but it allows you to do really dirty

What are your cell constants and space group? It sounds to me you

integrating/merging in too high of a symmetry. I've seen that happen for
