Dear Zhang,

     You mention being advised to submit your data to the STARANISO
server, but from your description of your response, it seems that you
submitted it instead to the UCLA Diffraction Anisotropy Server.

     Your case appears to be an instance where the UCLA server gives
puzzling results: from the blue and green curves given in its output,
there would seem to be substantial anisotropy, considering that the
green curve dives down to the F/sig(F) significance threshold value of
3.0 at 3.1A resolution, while the blue one keeps going and ends up
well above the green one at that same resolution - unless of course
the origin for the vertical F/sig(F) axis is not zero but 2.999 :-) .

     It would be interesting to see what you get with the STARANISO
server itself: it is easy to use, and you can find it at 

                http://staraniso.globalphasing.org/


     With best wishes,

 The STARANISO developers.

Dear All,

Sorry for the late reply. I was out of town in last two weeks.

Again, thanks for your kindly comments, and here are the summary for the
additional comments and my responses:

1. Summary:

The high value of the R-merge might be due to the wrong orientation matrix
(beam center), anisotropic, potential sample vibration, or radiation damage.

The suggestions are checking the orientation matrix and beam position, and
use pointless "centre" option in XDS to correct the center, use only
partially frames to do integration,  or  avoid sample vibration.

2. Responses to the comments:

(1). Dr. Klaus Futterer suspected the data has large variation during the
lattice parameters refinement or orientation matrix coefficients during
integration, and suggested to determine the orientation matrix in XDS with
all frames or only part (10-20%) of the frames with clear diffraction
spots, and then integrate the frames without floating the lattice
parameters.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion, I will work on this soon and see what
is going to happen.

(2). Dr. Eric Montemayor suspected the data is anisotropic, and suggested
to submit the data to the staraniso server.

Response: I submit the data to the anisotropic server (
http://services.mbi.ucla.edu/anisoscale/), and you can see in the
attachment that my data only has low and mild anisotropy.

(3). Dr. James Holton suspected that current results could be caused by
sample vibration due to particular crystal and loop shape (reference: J.
Appl. Cryst., 2008, 41, 1122). (I) Ways to diagnose sample vibration: (a)
Look at the highest intensity bin to see Rmerge for the brightest spots;
(b) Take a series of "stills" or at least the same narrow rotation about
3-10 times in a row from the same crystal with the same starting phi each
time, integrate the images as usual, and look at the variation (Rmerge) for
each hkl individually. Then plot the variation vs. location on the
detector. If we see swaths of reciprocal space with high variation while
others low, and the orientation of the swaths is not related to the phi
axis, then we know we've got vibration issues. (c) Look at other data sets
from the same instrument. If the low-angle Rmerge in P1 of the dataset
stands out, then it was probably sample vibration. (II) Ways to solve this
issue (a) adjust the flow rate of the cold stream; (b) shore-up the mounts;
(c) coat the twisty loop neck with epoxy before mounting the crystal; (d)
use loop and base (curved) from MiTeGen (MiTeGen must pay the advertising
fee!). (III) If Rmerge is high like I am seeing here I should definitely
inform whomever is maintaining the instrument I used that there is a
problem.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, I have discussed with the
beamline stuff to argue this potential issue. However, (a) after collecting
this set of data, I do collect data from other crystals grown from
different protein, and the R-merge looks fine. (b) I have collected four
sets of data again four months later, and all of them show similar high
R-merge value.  The stuff thought the high R-merge value of the crystals
from only this type of protein should not due to the hardware of the
synchrotron nor the loop itself.

(4). Dr. Thomas Cleveland mentioned that he had a similar situation before,
and this could be caused by a misindexing of the diffraction origin by +/-
1 due to a slightly incorrect beam center. He suggested to use the
pointless "centre" option in XDS to do a search for the correct center just
like the example at
https://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/xdswiki/index.php/Pointless, and
then use the INDEX_ORIGIN parameter to specify the correct origin, and
reintegrate the data.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion, I will work on this soon and see what
is going to happen.

(5). Dr. Kajander, Tommi A asked that if I can see R-merge difference if I
only process a sector from different place or lower the given symmetry for
the redundancy issue, and if I have tried XSCALE after XDS and crystal name
for correction to look at low resolution binds. He suggested that I need to
check the direct beam position as well as the radiation damage.

Response: I do the integration under P1 or only scale part of the frame,
but the R-merge increased to over 45% very soon.  Regarding to the
radiation damage issue, I do see high radiation damage. However, due to the
weak diffraction, I have to increase the exposure time to get the
resolution. Anyway, I will try to use XDS to correct the beam position and
use partial frames to redo the integration.


Thank you for your kindly help again, and I will update once I process the
data by using XDS to correct the beam position later!

Best,

Liang

Dear All,

Sorry for the late reply. I was out of town in last two weeks.

Again, thanks for your kindly comments, and here are the summary for the
additional comments and my responses:

1. Summary:

The high value of the R-merge might be due to the wrong orientation matrix
(beam center), anisotropic, potential sample vibration, or radiation damage.

The suggestions are checking the orientation matrix and beam position, and
use pointless "centre" option in XDS to correct the center, use only
partially frames to do integration,  or  avoid sample vibration.

2. Responses to the comments:

(1). Dr. Klaus Futterer suspected the data has large variation during the
lattice parameters refinement or orientation matrix coefficients during
integration, and suggested to determine the orientation matrix in XDS with
all frames or only part (10-20%) of the frames with clear diffraction
spots, and then integrate the frames without floating the lattice
parameters.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion, I will work on this soon and see what
is going to happen.

(2). Dr. Eric Montemayor suspected the data is anisotropic, and suggested
to submit the data to the staraniso server.

Response: I submit the data to the anisotropic server (
http://services.mbi.ucla.edu/anisoscale/), and you can see in the
attachment that my data only has low and mild anisotropy.

[image: anisotropy.png]

(3). Dr. James Holton suspected that current results could be caused by
sample vibration due to particular crystal and loop shape (reference: J.
Appl. Cryst., 2008, 41, 1122). (I) Ways to diagnose sample vibration: (a)
Look at the highest intensity bin to see Rmerge for the brightest spots;
(b) Take a series of "stills" or at least the same narrow rotation about
3-10 times in a row from the same crystal with the same starting phi each
time, integrate the images as usual, and look at the variation (Rmerge) for
each hkl individually. Then plot the variation vs. location on the
detector. If we see swaths of reciprocal space with high variation while
others low, and the orientation of the swaths is not related to the phi
axis, then we know we've got vibration issues. (c) Look at other data sets
from the same instrument. If the low-angle Rmerge in P1 of the dataset
stands out, then it was probably sample vibration. (II) Ways to solve this
issue (a) adjust the flow rate of the cold stream; (b) shore-up the mounts;
(c) coat the twisty loop neck with epoxy before mounting the crystal; (d)
use loop and base (curved) from MiTeGen (MiTeGen must pay the advertising
fee!). (III) If Rmerge is high like I am seeing here I should definitely
inform whomever is maintaining the instrument I used that there is a
problem.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, I have discussed with the
beamline stuff to argue this potential issue. However, (a) after collecting
this set of data, I do collect data from other crystals grown from
different protein, and the R-merge looks fine. (b) I have collected four
sets of data again four months later, and all of them show similar high
R-merge value.  The stuff thought the high R-merge value of the crystals
from only this type of protein should not due to the hardware of the
synchrotron nor the loop itself.

(4). Dr. Thomas Cleveland mentioned that he had a similar situation before,
and this could be caused by a misindexing of the diffraction origin by +/-
1 due to a slightly incorrect beam center. He suggested to use the
pointless "centre" option in XDS to do a search for the correct center just
like the example at
https://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/xdswiki/index.php/Pointless, and
then use the INDEX_ORIGIN parameter to specify the correct origin, and
reintegrate the data.

Response: Thanks for the suggestion, I will work on this soon and see what
is going to happen.

(5). Dr. Kajander, Tommi A asked that if I can see R-merge difference if I
only process a sector from different place or lower the given symmetry for
the redundancy issue, and if I have tried XSCALE after XDS and crystal name
for correction to look at low resolution binds. He suggested that I need to
check the direct beam position as well as the radiation damage.

Response: I do the integration under P1 or only scale part of the frame,
but the R-merge increased to over 45% very soon.  Regarding to the
radiation damage issue, I do see high radiation damage. However, due to the
weak diffraction, I have to increase the exposure time to get the
resolution. Anyway, I will try to use XDS to correct the beam position and
use partial frames to redo the integration.


Thank you for your kindly help again, and I will update once I process the
data by using XDS to correct the beam position later!

Best,

Liang
