Revision as of 08:27, 18 March 2011
The structure is deposited in the PDB, solved with SAD and refined at a resolution of 2.2 A in spacegroup P4(3)2(1)2 (#96). The data for this project were provided by Jürgen Bosch (SGPP) and are linked to the ACA 2011 workshop website. There are two high-resolution (2 Å) datasets E1 (wavelength 0.9794Å) and E2 (@ 0.9174Å) collected (with 0.25° increments) at an ALS beamline on June 27, 2004, and a weaker dataset collected earlier at a SSRL beamline. We will only use the former two datasets here.
Dataset E1
Use generate_XDS.INP and run xds once. Based on R-factors in the resulting CORRECT.LP, and an inspection of BKGPIX.cbf, I modified XDS.INP to have
INCLUDE_RESOLUTION_RANGE=40 2.1 ! too weak beyond 2.1 Å VALUE_RANGE_FOR_TRUSTED_DETECTOR_PIXELS=8000. 30000. ! raised from 7000 30000 to mask beamstop
and ran xds again.
What's the problem?
This is the excerpt from CORRECT.LP :

Some comments:
- the "STANDARD DEVIATION OF SPOT POSITION (PIXELS)" is significantly higher (1.01) than those reported for the 5°-batches in INTEGRATE.LP (about 0.6) . This suggests that the geometry refinement has to deal with inconsistent data.
- CORRECT obviously indicates an orthorhombic spacegroup.
- the number of MISFITS is higher than 1%. From the first long table (fine-grained in resolution) table in CORRECT.LP we learn that the misfits are due to faint high-resolution ice rings - so this is a problem intrinsic to the data, and not to their mode of processing.
To my surprise, pointless does not agree with CORRECT's standpoint:

which is much worse than the spacegroup 19 statistics (compare the ISa values - they differ by a factor of 2 !) so there may be something wrong with some assumptions we were making ...
Identifying a possible cause
The easiest thing one can do is to inspect INTEGRATE.LP - this lists scale factor, beam divergence and mosaicity for every reflection. There's a jiffy called "scalefactors" which grep's the relevant lines from INTEGRATE.LP ("scalefactors > scales.log"). This shows the scale factor (column 3):
demonstrating that "something happens" between frame 372 and 373 (of course one has to look at the table to find the exact numbers).
It should be noted that any abrupt change in conditions during the experiment is going to spoil the resulting data in one way or another. This is most true for a SAD experiment which is supposed to give accurate values for the tiny differences in intensities between Friedel-related reflections.
A solution
At this point it is good to look at the data for experiment E2. Here, we find exactly the same problems of bad ISa and high "STANDARD DEVIATION OF SPOT POSITION (PIXELS)" when reducing frames 1-591 in one run of xds.
With this knowledge, we are lead, for E1, to reduce frames 1-372 and 373-592 separately, in spacegroup 96. For E2, we use frames 1-369 and 371-591, respectively. Frame E2-370 has a very high scale factor so we leave it out altogether.
This is also a good time to closely inspect the headers of the frames:
% grep --binary-files=text DATE j1603b3PK_1_E1_37?.img
gives

and

gives

thus proving that both datasets were interrupted for 20 minutes around frame 370.
The really weird thing here is that both datasets appear to be collected at the same time, but at different wavelengths (E1 at 0.9794 Å, E2 at 0.9184 Å), and yet the individual parts merge as follows: using the following XSCALE.INP:
UNIT_CELL_CONSTANTS=103.316 103.316 131.456 90.000 90.000 90.000 SPACE_GROUP_NUMBER=96 OUTPUT_FILE=temp.ahkl INPUT_FILE=../e1_1-372/XDS_ASCII.HKL INPUT_FILE=../e1_373-592/XDS_ASCII.HKL INPUT_FILE=../e2_1-369/XDS_ASCII.HKL INPUT_FILE=../e2_371-591/XDS_ASCII.HKL
and running xscale, we obtain in XSCALE.LP:
CORRELATIONS BETWEEN INPUT DATA SETS AFTER CORRECTIONS DATA SETS NUMBER OF COMMON CORRELATION RATIO OF COMMON B-FACTOR #i #j REFLECTIONS BETWEEN i,j INTENSITIES (i/j) BETWEEN i,j 1 2 15943 0.978 1.0002 0.0106 1 3 22366 1.000 1.0012 -0.0008 2 3 15801 0.977 0.9983 0.0557 1 4 15648 0.979 0.9988 0.0541 2 4 14862 0.999 1.0024 -0.0007 3 4 15524 0.978 0.9999 -0.0015
which means that e1_1-372 correlates well (1.000) with e2_1-369, and e1_373-59 well (0.999) with e2_371-591, but the crosswise correlations are consistently low (0.978, 0.977, 0.979, 0.978). The adjustment to the error model proves this:

telling us that "if we merge these datasets together, their error estimates have to be increased a lot". However, if we switch to

proving that the second parts of datasets E1 and E2 should be treated separately from the first parts.
Upon inspection of the cell parameters, we find that the cell axes of the second "halfs" are shorter by a factor of 0.9908 when compared with the first parts. This suggests that they were collected at a longer wavelength! But then the wavelength values in the headers are most likely completely wrong: we can speculate that the two first parts were collected at the SeMet peak wavelength, and the two second parts at the inflection wavelength.
The almost-simultaneous DATEs in the headers may be explained by an inverse-beam measuring strategy which alternatingly collects 4 frames in one orientation as E1, then rotates the spindle by 180° and collects 4 frames into E2. For some reason, the beamline software did not write the correct wavelength into the headers.
So this little detective work appears to tell us what happened in the morning of Sunday June 27, 2004 at ALS beamline 821.
Further analysis of datasets E1 and E2
Here, we try to learn more about the constituents of "firstparts".
Running "xdsstat > XDSSTAT.LP" in the e1_1-372 and e2_1-369 directories, we obtain statistics output not available from CORRECT. We open XDSSTAT.LP with the CCP4 program "loggraph", and take a look at misfits.pck, rf.pck, and the other files produced by xdsstat, using VIEW or XDS-Viewer:
Reflections and misfits, by frame - looks normal
Intensity and sigma by frame - looks normal
"partiality" and profile agreement, by frame - looks good but it's clear that the profiles at high frame number agree worse with the average profiles, possibly due to radiation damage
R_meas, by frame, clearly showing good R_meas in the middle of the dataset
R_d - an R-factor which directly depends on radiation damage. This is calculated as a function of frame number difference and the linear rise indicates significant radiation damage that should be correctable in XSCALE, using the CRYSTAL_NAME keyword.
misfits mapped on the detector, showing ice rings.
R_meas mapped on the detector, showing elevated R_meas at the location of the ice rings.
Solving the structure
Although we could now think of using these two files ("firstparts" and "secondparts" merged) and assume that they are peak and inflection wavelengths, it appears more reasonable to try and solve the structure with SAD - which means using "firstparts" only.
First try
Let's look at the XSCALE statistics for "firstparts":
NOTE: Friedel pairs are treated as different reflections.

The anomalous correlation is good at low resolution, though not outstanding. At high resolution it rises again but this is presumably due to the ice rings.
I like to use hkl2map which runs SHELXC, SHELXD and SHELXE from its GUI. Before doing so, we have to run XDSCONV with the following XDSCONV.INP:
INPUT_FILE=firstparts.hkl OUTPUT_FILE=temp.hkl SHELX
First, the shelxc output which shows that these data are quite good:
And then we show the result of 100 trials at substructure solution of shelxd, trying to find 3 Se atoms at 30 - 3.3Å resolution (I also tried 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.4 3.5 Å but 3.3 Å was best).
This looks reasonable although the absolute value of CCall is so low that there is little hope that the structure can be solved with this amount of information. And indeed, SHELXE did not show a difference between the two hands (in fact we even know that the "original hand" is the correct one since the inverted had would correspond to spacegroup #92 !).
Second try: correcting radiation damage by 0-dose extrapolation
Since we noted significant radiation damage we could try to correct that. All we have to do is ask XSCALE to do zero-dose extrapolation:
UNIT_CELL_CONSTANTS=103.316 103.316 131.456 90.000 90.000 90.000 SPACE_GROUP_NUMBER=96 OUTPUT_FILE=temp.ahkl INPUT_FILE=../e1_1-372/XDS_ASCII.HKL CRYSTAL_NAME=a INPUT_FILE=../e2_1-369/XDS_ASCII.HKL CRYSTAL_NAME=a
As a result we obtain:
******************************************************************************
RESULTS FROM ZERO-DOSE EXTRAPOLATION OF REFLECTION INTENSITIES
for reference on this subject see:
K. Diederichs, S. McSweeney & R.B.G. Ravelli, Acta Cryst. D59, 903-909(2003).
"Zero-dose extrapolation as part of macromolecular synchrotron data reduction"
******************************************************************************
Radiation damage can lead to localized modifications of the structure.
To correct for this effect, XSCALE modifies the intensity measurements
I(h,i) by individual correction factors,
exp{-b(h)*dose(h,i)}
where h,i denotes the i-th observation with unique reflection indices
h, and dose(h,i) the X-ray dose accumulated by the crystal when the
reflection was recorded. Assuming a constant dose for each image
(dose_rate), the accumulated dose when recording image_number(i), on
which I(h,i) was observed, is then
dose(h,i) = starting_dose + dose_rate * (image_number(i)-first_image)
The decay factor b(h) is determined from the assumption that symmetry
related reflections in a data set taken from the same crystal should
have the same intensity after correction. Moreover, b(h) is assumed to
be the same for Friedel-pairs and independent of the X-ray wavelength.
To avoid overfitting the data, XSCALE starts with the hypothesis that
b(h)=0 and rejects this assumption if its probability is below 10.0%.

We not that the "CORRELATION OF COMMON DECAY-FACTORS BETWEEN INPUT DATA SETS" are really high which confirms the hypothesis that this is a valid procedure to perform.
Comparison of the last table with that of the previous paragraph, i.e. without zero-dose extrapolation, shows that the I/sigma, the anomalous correlation coefficients and the SigAno are significantly higher. Does this translate into better structure solution? It does:
Automatically building the main chain of 452 out of 519 residues
Based on the sites obtained by SHELXD, we run
shelxe.beta -a -q -h -b -s0.585 -m40 raddam raddam_fa
This already builds a significant number of residues, but also gives an improved list of heavy atom sites - there are actually 6 sites instead of the 5 that SHELXD wrote out (yes, we had asked SHELXD for 3 sites since there are 3 Met residues, but SHELXD as always was smarter than we are). We "mv raddam.hat raddam_fa.res" for another run of SHELXE:
shelxe.beta -a -q -h6 -b -s0.585 -m40 -n3 raddam raddam_fa
and get

At this point the structure is obviously solved, and we could use buccanneer or Arp/wArp to add side chains and the rest of the model. 3-fold NCS surely helps!
Could we do better?
Yes, of course (as always). I can think of four things to try:
- an optimization round of running xds for the two datasets
- using a negative offset for STARTING_DOSE in XSCALE.INP, as documented in the XSCALE wiki article.
- use MERGE=TRUE in XDSCONV.INP. I tried it and this gives 20 solutions with CCall+CCweak > 25 out of 1000 trials, whereas MERGE=FALSE (the default) gives only 4 solutions!
- adding the "secondparts" data assuming this is a longer wavelength
But this time we learn that one has to take special care of the data in particular when they were measured by someone else who does not tell us everything we need to know. Second, zero-dose extrapolation made the day.
Availability of data
The XDS/XSCALE - produced data are available at 1y13-raddam-F.mtz (amplitudes) and 1y13-raddam-I.mtz(intensities). In addition I provide [1] and [2] to enable investigating based on the original XDS data.
