Hi ,
Seems to me that crystal packing is not good thats why mosaic
diffraction, this might be due to DNA so you can increase diffraction
quality by using 1 or 2 nucleotide sticky end DNA for crystallization
which can help in crystal packing .

Hi Appu,
nothing really to worry about if you process your data with XDS or d*trek using
3D profile fitting.
You still should be able to get something useful out of this data.
If you look at 90.png (I'm attaching a zoomed area of your image), you see your
crystal is either split or you had two c
Dear Appu,
one direction of your cristal has very anistropic diffraction. I think
your cristal has grown like multi-layer. The problem is probably due to
the DNA. If the different "layer" of your cristal are not very well
aligned, you have this type of problem.
In my opinion, you can try to
That looks like a garden variety mosaic/kinda-crappy crystal. Without being
there, it's impossible to tell if it was morphology (e.g. cracks and divots,
etc.), crystal handling, or just bad luck. The bottom line is you need better
data. The good news is that those crystals diffract to a reasonab
