Hello,

I would suggest to use several tools (in addition to Phenix's) - CCP4's detwin, the plots generated by truncate before detwinning, the Yeates twinning server and there might be others - to get a good idea of what the twinning fraction is.

Here we've had success using CCP4's detwin to "detwin" diffraction data. The resulting mtz file is not equivalent to an mtz file containing data recorded from an untwinned crystal - this detwinning operation is not a perfectly accurate operation... In our case we used the estimate of the twinning fraction obtained from Phenix (which was lower).

HTH,

Fred.

Hi, All,

I got a set of P2(or P21) data for MR. However, the Phenix-Xtriage indicated that it could be a pseudo-merohedral twinning. Does anyone know how to deal with such kind of twinning problem? Thanks.

Best,

Liang
