Guidelines for de novo phasing using multiple small-wedge data collection.

ABSTRACT: Intense micro-focus X-ray beamlines available at synchrotron facilities have achieved high-quality data collection even from the microcrystals of membrane proteins. The automatic data collection system developed at SPring-8, named ZOO, has contributed to many structure determinations of membrane proteins using small-wedge synchrotron crystallography (SWSX) datasets. The `small-wedge' (5-20°) datasets are collected from multiple crystals and then merged to obtain the final structure factors. To our knowledge, no systematic investigation on the dose dependence of data accuracy has so far been reported for SWSX, which is between `serial crystallography' and `rotation crystallography'. Thus, herein, we investigated the optimal dose conditions for experimental phasing with SWSX. Phase determina
