Distribution of low-energy (6 keV) experiments performed on the X06DA (PXIII) beamline in the last four years. 75 structures were successfully solved by native SAD, of which 45 were novel structures (`de novo'). 27 were previously solved by other means such as molecular replacement or Se-SAD (`method development'). In three cases, crystals of a different protein from that originally intended were obtained owing to E. coli contamination during purification (`contaminant'). There were two cases where substructure solution was successful but not phasing (`substructure only'), and 20 failed cases (`no substructure'). Seven experiments were performed to obtain the position of the light scatterers in the structure and to help model building (`sequence marker'). |
