Re: [ccp4bb] Quest for resolution-sensitive substructure determination cases

Good morning Randy, Setting aside the (always somewhat tricky) resolution limit choice, a useful consideration is embodied in equations 1,2 and 3 of https://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?bw0576 and the associated text ie consider the theoretical maximum of the anomalous differences. Without an

I will look for examples but in practice I try to include rather than exclude data. (In fact follow the shelxd/e protocol slavishly allowing its automatic selection of data cutoff) When choosing a resolution cut off I think it is important to appreciate that the best test for correctness is the

2020-10-11 Thread Randy Read
Dear members of the BBs, When determining the anomalous substructure as part of SAD phasing, one of the most important parameters can be the choice of resolution limit for the data provided to the substructure determination algorithm. Extending to too high resolution can hamper the search by
