Well, to be precise, the molecular transform is _multiplied_, rather than convoluted, with the _reciprocal_ lattice.
The crystal structure corresponds to the convolution of the unit cell content with the crystal lattice (represented by a set of delta functions).
Then, as per the convolution theorem, the FT of the crystal structure, i.e., the diffraction pattern, equals the product (and not the convolution) of the unit cell FT (the molecular transform) and the lattice FT (the reciprocal lattice).
Cheers,
Oliver

Dear Jacob,
I was taught that the diffraction pattern is the molecular transform of the unit cell, convoluted with the crystal lattice, e.g. we see the molecular transform of the unit cell only at the position of the reflections and not anywhere else due to the bragg law.
So, putting your single molecule in a fake P1 unit cell and calculating F’s should do the trick. Using a large unit cell will give you a fine sampling and a small unit cell will give you a course sampling.
Best,
Herman

Dear Crystallographers,
Does anyone know how to make calculated single-molecule molecular transforms from pdb files?
Jacob
