The examples here are intended to explain the use of items for describing
phasing data sets in molecule replacement methodologies, using data items
in the PHASING_MR and related categories.
Example 1:
The crystal structure of a double-stranded DNA octamer complexed with
a bacterial antibiotic was solved by molecular replacement based on
the structure of the same duplex octamer with a different antibiotic
and data collected to 3 Å at beamline X13 at EMBL/DESY, Hamburg.
Brief details of the data collection for this phasing set are provided
in the (single) entry in the PHASING_SET category, which is referenced by the
_phasing_set.id item.
The structure was refined based on a data set collected to much higher
resolution at the same beamline at a later date. The search model was
referenced, but the four-letter code identifying the deposition in the
database was not provided.

Example 2:
The crystal structure of a different double-stranded DNA octamer
complexed with the same bacterial antibiotic as Example 1 was also
solved by molecular replacement based on the same structure with a
different antibiotic that was used above. Data collected to
2.1 Å at beamline X13 at EMBL/DESY, Hamburg were used to
solve and refine the structure.
Because the same data set was used for phasing and refinement,
the PHASING_SET category is not used to record brief details of
data collection: full details are available in the DIFFRN group
of categories that characterize the refinement data set. In this
case the value of
_phasing_set.id
is '.' to indicate that no other data set need be considered.
