Hi,
I tried to processed it as P321. It seemed that it might be right. The
Rmerge increased
just a little. Then I used phenix.xtriage and sfcheck to check it. The
results are as following:
phenix.xtriage:
Twinning and intensity statistics summary (acentric data):
Statistics independent of twin laws
- <I^2>/<I>^2 : 2.084
- <F>^2/<F^2> : 0.827
- <|E^2-1|> : 0.666
- <|L|>, <L^2>: 0.400, 0.227
Multivariate Z score L-test: 9.082
The multivariate Z score is a quality measure of the given
spread in intensities. Good to reasonable data are expected
to have a Z score lower than 3.5.
Large values can indicate twinning, but small values do not
necessarily exclude it.
Statistics depending on twin laws
-----------------------------------------------------------------
| Operator | type | R obs. | Britton alpha | H alpha | ML alpha |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
| -h,-k,l | M | 0.461 | 0.102 | 0.065 | 0.022 |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Patterson analyses
- Largest peak height : 4.288
(corresponding p value : 0.98768)
The largest off-origin peak in the Patterson function is 4.29% of the
height of the origin peak. No significant pseudotranslation is detected.
The results of the L-test indicate that the intensity statistics
are significantly different than is expected from good to reasonable,
untwinned data.
As there are twin laws possible given the crystal symmetry, twinning could
be the reason for the departure of the intensity statistics from normality.
It might be worthwhile carrying out refinement with a twin specific target
function.
sfcheck:
Pseudo-translation is not detected.
Minimal estimated error : 0.0864
Perfect twinning test <I^2>/<I>^2 : 2.0191
Partial Twinning test:
-h,-k,+l
Polar angles: 0.00 0.00 180.00
Alpha(twin fraction),Npair,Ior,Tol : 0.148 118812 2 0.000
Then, what should I do? I did not deal with any twinning dataset. Any
comments and suggestions
will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Yingjie
