== Space group determination with pointless == | |||
The latest and currently easiest way of going from a XDS formatted reflection file to a multi-record MTZ file (FIXME: I think this file is not suitable for further steps of structure determination) is via the [ftp://ftp.ccp4.ac.uk/ccp4/6.0.2/prerelease/pointless.html pointless] program (see [http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0907444905036693 Scaling and Assessment of Data Quality, Philip Evans, Acta Cryst D 62, 72-82]): | |||

From the latter pointless output, the correct space group should be deduced and CORRECT run with appropriate SPACE_GROUP_NUMBER, UNIT_CELL_PARAMETERS and REIDX. | |||

Space group determination can be done within [[XDS]] by following these steps: | Space group determination can be done within [[XDS]] by following these steps: | ||
