Re: [ccp4bb] Semet derivative dying almost immediately in beam

Ah, low resolution experimental phasing. Fun stuff, seems like a lost art these days. Are the crystals large ? Is it possible to do a (continuous helical data) collection? (Manually or if your beamline permits you to). Granted this is anomalous, is it possible to then merge enough partial da
