Can I solve my structure by SAD phasing? Anomalous signal in SAD phasing
A key challenge in the SAD phasing method is solving a structure when the anomalous signal-to-noise ratio is low. A simple theoretical framework for describing measurements of anomalous differences and the resulting useful anomalous correlation and anomalous signal in a SAD experiment is presented. Here, the useful anomalous correlation is defined as the correlation of anomalous differences wit...
متن کاملNew ways of looking at experimental phasing.
In the original work by Blow and Crick, experimental phasing was formulated as a least-squares problem. For good data on good derivatives this approach works reasonably well, but we now attempt to extract more information from poorer data than in the past. As in many other crystallographic problems, the assumptions underlying the use of least squares for phasing are not satisfied, particularly ...
متن کاملPhasing from an envelope.
Solution of the phase problem is central to crystallographic structure determination. Conventional molecular-replacement methods are ineffective in the absence of knowledge of the structure of a homologous protein. A recent method utilizing the low-resolution molecular shape determined from solution X-ray scattering data has been shown to be successful in locating the molecular shape within the...
متن کاملRapid cadmium SAD phasing at the standard wavelength (1 Å)
Cadmium ions can be effectively used to promote crystal growth and for experimental phasing. Here, the use of cadmium ions as a suitable anomalous scatterer at the standard wavelength of 1 Å is demonstrated. The structures of three different proteins were determined using cadmium single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) phasing. Owing to the strong anomalous signal, the structure of lysozym...
متن کاملNative sulfur/chlorine SAD phasing for serial femtosecond crystallography
Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) allows structures to be determined with minimal radiation damage. However, phasing native crystals in SFX is not very common. Here, the structure determination of native lysozyme from single-wavelength anomalous diffraction (SAD) by utilizing the anomalous signal of sulfur and chlorine at a wavelength of 1.77 Å is successfully demonstrated. This sulfur S...
