If I understand the documentation correctly (https://www.ccp4.ac.uk/html/mtzformat.html), it refers to the symmetry operations as they are stored in the header of the MTZ file. So the source of the MTZ file might make a difference. The safest way of using this data is to follow the header and not some implied order.HTH,RobbieOn 15 Mar 2024 04:59, "Hekstra, Doeke Romke" wrote:
Hi,
I would like to be sure about which symmetry operation the M/ISYM column in an MTZ file is referring to. Is it correct that this matches the order in CCP4’s /lib/data/syminfo.lib (at least when this order is unique—it is not always so)?
Would anyone know why the order in one of my favorite websites (http://img.chem.ucl.ac.uk/sgp/large/sgp.htm) happens to often be different?
Thank you,
Doeke
