Re: [ccp4bb] help needed to interpret a SRF

Vincent, You are on the right track. Notice now that both maps at chi/kappa=180 have strong peaks at the y-axis and a “mirror” plane perpendicular to this.This is what would be expected for P21, i.e., Y is b/b*. Then depending on the orthogonalization convention of MolRep, the a- and

Vincent,I see a few of problems with your SRF (the maps) which would impact the interpretation.  First you say that both crystals are processed as P21, which you would expect a very strong peak (100% of your origin peak) on kappa/chi=180 at the b* axis (one of the major axes of your map); this

Thank you for your email. the anisotropic resolutions of the datasets are 5.6-7.1A for the best and worst diffracting directions of the crystal without additive, and 4.0-5.8A for the crystal with additive. The two crystals come from the same prep and same drop setup, only differ from the

Well - you dont give details o f resolution but the sovent content and the peak of 0.51 would suggest a possible dimer in crystal 1 Crystal 2 is so different it might well have a dimer in a different orientation. I would try to see if there was a relationship between Xtal 1 and Xtal 2 - can

Dear all, I need help interpreting results from a SRF; I am very naïve at interpreting them and would appreciate any pointer... I have 2 crystals, before and after additive during crystallogenesis. They have different cell parameters, and I am wondering if I have a monomer or a dimer in the
