Hello Phenixbb, I've been out of the crystallography game for a few years and was hoping for some suggestions. I'm trying to phase a structure (~1200aa protein:DNA complex) with native data out to 2.0A and SAD/MAD data out to 3.0-2.6. I'm trying to use Br/I soaking while I wait for Sel-Met crystals to grow. I'm collecting 1800 frames at a synchrotron and scaling together multiple MAD wavelength sets (30 degree inverse wedges) collected from the same crystal with phenix.scale_and_merge to achieve >85% anomalous data (determined by xtriage). Anomalous signal of the merged data is around 10 at the 3.5 angstrom shell. I'm keeping an eye on the merging statistics, but I'm not sure what the critical stats to monitor are. AutoSol has given me a a few possible solutions, finding between 3 and 8 sites for MAD and SAD sets(I'm letting AutoSol decide how many to find) with Resolve Rfactors around 0.34, but low map skew (<1 and sometimes negative). I've tried using the initial sites to search for additional Br sites, but with no luck, and the density isn't good enough to build anything into. I'm doing hyss searches with various resolution cutoffs and continue to get the same/similar uninterpretable density with very few heavy atom sites found. My questions: What are the critical stats to look at when merging data for anomalous signal? Are there parameters to explore in AutoSol to identify more heavy atom sites? Should I accept that I need to wait for new crystals to grow or keep charging ahead with this data, encouraged by some promising numbers by AutoSol? Thank you in advance for the suggestions. -Ian
