Hi all, I have two datasets, both CO SAD data, one collected at CO anomalous wavelength at synchroton and the other at home source. I wish to combine these two data-sets and use for SAD phasing. Can anyone suggest how this can be done? Regards, ARKO -- *ARKA CHAKRABORTY* *CAS in

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Dear Arko, could you not try MAD with the two different data sets? Otherwise you can check the strength of the anomalous signal for both sets separately (I am sure pointless prints the anomalous CC over resolution shell) and after merging them. If

How to merge two or more runs depends on the software you used to process the images. If you used MOSFLM/CCP4, then you would use the programs REBATCH (perhaps REINDEX) and SORTMTZ to combine the unmerged mtz files (the ones that come out of MOSFLM) before feeding them to SCALA. My program

By the way, I wouldn't use MAD to describe the mergeing of non-isomorphous datasets.  Strictly speaking, MAD is at least an attempt to measure both anomalous (f) and dispersive (f') differences, and I don't think it is appropriate to use the term MAD when you know the dispersive signal is

Isn't it true that we cannot even agree on what MAD stands for? Is the following right? M = Multiple-wavelength. I think everyone agrees to this, although I believe I've seen the occasional (and sometime non-sensical) variant A = Anomalous (I think everyone agrees, although this term should

Hi, Regardless of what the consensus on naming for the technique, I'd suggest you combine these datasets during phasing (I'm aware of MLPHARE, SHARP, PHASIT supporting multiple anomalous datasets during phasing; others probably do as well). Combining at the merging step
