Hi Jude,

thank you for your effort to desposit the untouched data.

I was actually wondering how to do this myself as I am getting close to the deposition stage with my anisotropic data. Thank you for sharing your concerns, it will be useful to other users.

Since Randy is asking for user's experience, what I've done in the past was to dialog with the PDB and ask them to also include the original data in the cif format. If I recall correctly, I've sent them the original mtz file in the validation stage of the deposition, as the web site only allows for one mtz file. Also, depending on how strong your anisotropy is..., there was some "dialog" about data quality according to standards, and other various concerns that we addressed in the publication, but couldn't be accounted for in the deposition. So they ended up accepting the data, with Author's comments. What I was planning on doing for the current dataset, was to ask staraniso to also include the original data in the final output. There is a box to tick on the website, unticked by default. You can also modify the labels there, asking for the modified data to be called I_SA/SIGI_SA for example for StarAniso.

Hope it helps
Vincent

Dear Kevin,

I’ve just been working through the issue myself of how to deposit both the pruned 
data needed to reproduce the refinement and the unmassaged data.  The advice I got 
from the people at PDBe was to prepare an mmCIF file with two reflection loops.  
The validation pipeline expects the first one to contain the data actually used in 
refinement, so I prepared one in which the second loop contained the full set of 
intensities.  It should also be possible to have a third loop containing unmerged 
original-index (but probably scaled) intensity data, and this would be a good 
intermediate ground between the worst option of just depositing French & Wilson 
(truncate) amplitudes and the ideal-world case of depositing the raw diffraction 
images.

Like you, I used the sf-tool at wwPDB, but I’ve just double-checked and the 
mmCIF file I got has the same free flags for both reflection loops.  In case 
this helps to narrow down why you had a problem and I didn’t, the data I 
submitted were in a single MTZ file, and the R-free flags had been prepared 
with the CCP4 convention, with values from 0 to 19, and not a binary convention 
with just values of 0 and 1.

I’ve also been wondering about when you get to label the different intensity 
sets!  The mmCIF standard doesn’t have data types that distinguish different 
kinds of observed intensities.  We haven’t yet deposited the structure with the 
data, and I’ve been hoping that you’re asked to provide labels during the 
deposition process.  Perhaps someone from one of the wwPDB sites, or someone 
who has gotten as far as depositing such data, can comment!

Best wishes,

Randy Read

I am preparing to deposit several structures that I refined against anisotropic 
data that I truncated with STARANISO. I will of course be depositing the 
original data with spherical resolution limits, but it seems that I should also 
deposit the ellipsoidally truncated data that I actually refined against. To be 
clear, these are the same dataset but in the second case the unmerged 
reflections have been rescaled and I/SIGIs that fall outside the ellipsoid are 
set to empty values. I have a technical problem with preparing the mmcif and a 
broader question about presenting the data.

I've tried to create an mmcif file from my mtz using http://sf-tool.wwpdb.org, treating 
the two sets of I/sigI as two datasets. For some reason, in the output file the test set 
flags are reversed for the second "dataset" (whichever I choose to be second); 
ie, o becomes f and f becomes o. This is a technical problem that I can correct with a 
text editor, but still irritating.

More importantly, is there a way to distinguish in the file between the 
spherically complete dataset and the truncated dataset that was used in 
refinement in a way that is useful to future users? I have not worked with 
mmcif before and am not sure what column names are permissible, nor what would 
be recognizable to other users or software. I'm interested to hear the thoughts 
and experiences of the community on this.

Best wishes
Kevin
