[phenixbb] Re : Re: Does PHENIX exclude Rfree reflections in maps?

[Tom Terwilliger]

Hi Sacha,
Yes, that would help.

In parallel, to get a little more data on the practical aspects of all  
this, I think I will do a test to see how much difference taking out a  
super-test-set of reflections completely makes in overall structure  
determination from start to finish using fully automated structure  
determination with phenix.autosol and phenix.autobuild.

All the best,
Tom T
