Dear all, I have a dataset with strong TNCS and I would like to know if there are a "series of steps" that I could follow in order to find out whether I can solve my structure or not. I see on the Phaser wiki that structure determination in the presence of TNCS is not fully automated. which steps

Dear Almu, We have a discussion on the Phaser Wiki about some of the possibilities for tNCS, what you should look for, and what Phaser can handle: http://www.phaser.cimr.cam.ac.uk/index.php/Molecular_Replacement#Translational_Non-crystallographic_Symmetry. As it explains, if you have one major

Sorry to plug MOLREP to a Phaser Q, but it does have some simple tNCS functions which work well for straightforward cases. Something to consider: tNCS can make spacegroup determination based on axial reflection absences tricky so set a flag to test all SGS in the pointgroup. For example: (A transl
