| Abstract | A method is described for estimating the phases of high resolution single-crystal diffraction data from proteins, by using as a starting point a set of low resolution phases (about 3 A) derived by multiple isomorphous replacement (or other) methods. The method consists in refining by least-squares the positions and thermal parameters of a set of dummy atoms placed in the initial low resolution electron density map, so as to minimize the discrepancy between the calculated scattering intensities and the scattering intensities observed in the high resolution data set. Phases calculated from these refined atomic positions are used to extend the resolution and to improve the quality of the electron density map. The success of the method depends on a new least-squares algorithm that has a radius of convergence of about 0.75 A. This large radius of convergence, together with the severe restrictions placed on the initial positions of the dummy atoms by the requirement that they lie within limited regions of the isomorphous electron density map, and the constraint imposed by the polymeric nature of a polypeptide chain account for the success of the method. The method has been successfully used to phase the structure factors of 2-zinc insulin at a resolution of 2 A and 1.5 A, starting from a set of isomorphous phases at 3-A resolution. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
