Phase refinement and extension by means of non-crystallographic symmetry averaging using parallel computers.

چکیده
Electron-density averaging, fast Fourier synthesis and fast Fourier analysis programs have been adapted for parallel-computing systems. These have been linked to perform iterative phase improvement and extension utilizing non-crystallographic symmetry and solvent flattening. Various strategies for parallel algorithms have been tested on a variety of computers as a function of the number of computer nodes. Some experimental timing results are discussed.

The structure of human rhinovirus 14 has been refined, by the method of restrained least squares, to an R factor of 0.16 for various random samples between 6 and 3 A, resolution with F > 3o-(F).

متن کاملThe environmental two-step.
An important stage in macromolecular crystallography is that of phase extension and refinement when initial phase estimates are available from isomorphous replacement or anomalous scattering or other methods. For this purpose, an alternative method called the twin variables (TwiV) method has been proposed. The algorithm is based on alternately transferring the phase information between the twin...
متن کاملThe PROTEIN system: Real-Space Techniques using Patterson and Fourier maps
Real-space techniques have been an important issue in the PROTEIN program system from its very beginning. In the field of molecular replacement the “real-space search methods” serve the correlation of maps for the exploration of non-crystallographic symmetry (Patterson self-rotation), positioning of known molecular models in unknown structures (cross-rotation, translation) both in Patterson and...
متن کاملThe crystallographic symmetry test for the correctness of a set of phases.
One of the most important problems in the application of direct methods for large structures is to establish reliable consistency criteria for the correctness of a phasing trial. The introduction in the twin variables method [Bethanis, Tzamalis, Hountas, Mishnev & Tsoucaris (2000). Acta Cryst. A56, 105-111] of a new criterion based on the crystallographic symmetry consists of testing the phase ...
