Re: [ccp4bb] experimental phasing at low resolution

2015-04-27 Thread Stefan Gajewski
Hi, I doubt you have a TaBr cluster bound in your soaks. You'd expect a strong anomalous signal from cluster compounds (that's what they are made for) and you can easily get a low resolution anomalous signal from a few dislocated HA in the solvent channels, especially if you don't counter soak
