OK yes it's Phaser: the version you are using is not writing the correct CCP4 space group number in the MTZ header (i.e. the one listed in syminfo.lib), which will confuse many downstream programs using the CCP4 symmetry library. Phaser is using the space group number shown in ITC-A, but that

An MTZ file contains the space group name, space group number, and all the symmetry operators. Space group numbers such as 4005 are an unofficial undocumented extension to International Tables rules and shouldn't be used as reliable information. The name or the operators should take precedence

Ian, I think I found the issue just by looking through mtzdmp output, but there was a clue from the response I got yesterday: Hi Paul, I have come across this problem before, suddenly what was complete data is only 50% complete. I seem to recall its because I2 is also called

Paul, mtzdump may not give the full header. The best way to get this is to use a text editor on the MTZ file (yes I know it looks like garbage!), scroll to the end where you will find the header starting at 'VERS MTZ:V1.1'. Then copy/paste everything from there to the end (don't worry about

Hi Paul I just tried Refmac 5.8.0135 (which must be very similar to the version you are using) with an I2 dataset and I don't see this "conversion to C2". I doubt very much that the refinement programs need to convert to C2: I'm pretty sure they can do the refinement perfectly well in I2. I

Refmac and phenix.refine versions I used both seem to be problematic. Both are I2 in and C2 out. --p On 11/04/2016 08:25 AM, Ian Tickle wrote: Hi Paul This sounds like there might be a recently-introduced bug which should be reported to the author. I have several structures in I2 & I

It seems this happens at the level of the refinement programs. Both seem to convert to C2, but use the I2 cell parameters. They are somewhat older versions, so perhaps it is an old bug and not a new one? I've confirmed that the input mtz I used for both refmac and phenix.refine was in I2 with

Hi Paul This sounds like there might be a recently-introduced bug which should be reported to the author. I have several structures in I2 & I haven't noticed anything like this. Can you tell which program is introducing this error, e.g. by looking at the mtzdump outputs? Cheers -- Ian On 4

Thanks to all that responded. I sorted this out. It all appears to stem from the C2->I2 conversion. Forcing everything in processing to stick with C2 fixes all the issues! Thanks again, --paul On 11/03/2016 12:39 PM, Paul Paukstelis wrote: CCP4BB, I posted some time back about a DNA

CCP4BB, I posted some time back about a DNA oligonucleotide structure we were working on. I had difficulty phasing it despite strong signal from bromines, but finally managed to get reasonable enough maps from a few datasets to build, only to find that despite the density looking quite good,
