Hi everybody, I used phenix for calculating anomalous Fourier coefficients (script below) and I get the desired file containing columns FANOM PHANOM. When I read this into Coot for displaying the imaginary map, I only get noise, regardless of resolution cutoff etc. When I export the Fcalcs as CNS format and use CNS for the map calculation, I get very high peaks (i.e. excellent signal-to-noise ratio) on the anomalous scatterers. Inspection of the phenix fcalc file reveals that FOFCWT_no_fill equals FANOM and PHFOFCWT_no_fill is identical to PHANOM . Obviously I am doing something stupidly wrong. Setting xray_data.force_anomalous_flag_to_be_equal_to=true doesn't change anything, by the way, and i am using the latest Phenix version. I vaguely remember that there were an issue with anomlous data but can't find the thread. Thank you very much in advance for enlightening me, Ulrich # source /usr/local/phenix-1.4-3/phenix_env phenix.refine m226h1_rfree-unique.mtz m226h1_hkl2000_6_waters_001.pdb main.number_of_macro_cycles=1 \ refinement.input.xray_data.labels="F(+),SIGF(+),F(-),SIGF(-)" \ xray_data.high_resolution =3.5 strategy=none export_final_f_model=cns output.prefix=sfcalc --overwrite * Space group = 'P3121' (number 152) The mapcoeff.mtz looks like OVERALL FILE STATISTICS for resolution range 0.000 - 0.319 ======================= Col Sort Min Max Num % Mean Mean Resolution Type Column num order Missing complete abs.
