Dear Crystallographers, The recent conversation about NCS got me thinking about something I have been wondering about for a while.
Imagine a structure with twenty-fold NCS which diffracts to 2A versus a no-NCS structure of the same resolution--obviously the first model will be better than the other, because there are about twenty times the number of reflections to describe the same underlying structure, all other things (e.g., solvent content) being equal. Is there a indication of this in the statistical measures usually reported in Tables I*, or anywhere else? Regards, Jacob Keller (*there's the old "plural of Table I" problem) ******************************************* Jacob Pearson Keller Northwestern University Medical Scientist Training Program Dallos Laboratory F.
