Hi,
I was looking recently for weak anomalous scatterers, when refined model is known.
I used phaser as described here:
http://www.phenix-online.org/pipermail/phenixbb/2008-July/001136.html

or running phaser from the ccp4 gui "SAD with molecular replacement partial structure"

Works very well, I could identify several ions which had been placed as water.

However, when I wanted to look at the anomalous LLG maps, I got a bit confused with the description on http://www.phenix-online.org/pipermail/phenixbb/2008-July/001136.html. Using columns FLLG/PHLLG gave a map looking more like noise.

I got the anom. diff. map using fft or directly in coot (you first have to generate DANO from F+ and F- with sftools) using columns DANO, PHWT , and not PHLLG !?, can somebody comment on this?

This map looked clearly better than the anom. diff. map generated using the phases of the refined model (CAD, FFT).
Best,
Guenter

Hello everybody!

I am faced with a problem of calculating an anomalous map from a Se-Met
dataset, and
I cannot interpret the error message.

So, detailed problem description:

I was given a Se-Met dataset of my protein. I scaled it in Scala and made .mtz
file, but I do not phases.
And I cannot do a MR, but I have a coordinate file. This is my situation

So, what I did.
I made a copy of .mtz and did a refinement in refmac  - to generate phases.
During that I lost all anomalous data.
After I did CAD procedure - I took from original .mtz anomalous data (F(+),
F(-), DANO, IMEAN, I(+), I(-), with sigmas) and from refined mtz - H K L
FreeR_flag, F, SIGF, FC, PHIC, FC_ALL, PHIC_ALL, FWT, PHWT, DELFWT, PHDELWT,
FOM.
And then I did anomalous FFT
in the fields I put:
PHI - PHIC
Weight - FOM
DANO - DANO
Sigma - SIGDANO

I tried with and without excluding of R-free, but result was the same -
"FAILED"... And error message was
"FFTBIG:  No reflexions pass acceptance criteria!  Check RESOLUTION,
EXCLUDE, missing data."
And I cannot find how to fix this.

It have also one more warning message -  * Missing value set to NaN in input
mtz file
but as I read it is not a problem - mtz is still readable.

I would be glad for any help or advice.
Thanks.

Sergii

P.S.   Please, find attached mtz and logs.
