 +==== SAD-Phasing ====
 +
 +The sequence is necessary. Give the source or the signal or define if you have a heavy atom.
 +Software used: Arp/Warp, CCP4-6.3.0, CCP4-6.4.0(Coot), ShelX
 +
 +**Data analysis**: 
 +Grey area 1.3 for anomalous signal (can be used up to 1.0)
 +
 +**Find sites**:
 +Choose the resolution limit (>1.8 Å to distinguish disulfide bonds, test 0.1 Å increments)
 +Check the absolute value and the spread of solutions (a few in the up-right corner)
 +
 +**Site view**:
 +Sphere size correlates with the occupancy
 +
 +**Phase**:
 +High resolution limit; try different resolution cutoffs
 + 
 +**Check hand** (//ShelXE//):
 +You should see the difference, dark red/dark blue, difference of one graduation in scale.
 +If necessary, increase the cycle number so that a plateau is reached.
 +
 +**Phase**:
 +//Mlphase//, //DM-phase extension//
 +
 +**NCS**:
 +//DM// or //Parrot// (a bit better)
 +At least try it if you have more than 1 molecule in the Asymmetric Unit
 +
 +**Build**:
 +//ARP/WARP// for high resolution
 +//Buccaner// for lower resolution (∼ 3 Å)
 +Let ARP/WARP build/refine several times if has difficulties building. Start several times witha few cycles rather that once with many cycles.

 +==== Molecular Replacement ====
 +
 +**Analyze data**
 +
 +**Prepare Model**: Edit the PDB file (delete ligands, waters, side-chains if you want)
 +
 +**Run MR** (//MolRep//): 3 Å by default; rigid body at 3.0 Å, then refine at max resolution
