Indexing

[Qilu Ye]

Hi, everyone:
  I have a problem for indexing my new crystal. (1) I did autoindex and
got autoindex list as follow:


 Lattice          Metric tensor    Best cell (symmetrized)
               distortion index    Best cell (without symmetry
restrains)

  Autoindex Xbeam, Ybeam  150.83  149.49           Volume of the
primitive cell  679649.

(2) I tried Denzo for all autoindexing  symmetry less then 1%. Almost
all of these R factor are
more than 20%, except  using  primitive triclinic R factor is 3.5%.
(3)The crystal morphology looks hexagonal shape and size is 0.5x0.5x0.4
mm.

(4)The protein molecular weight is 35 KD.

If someone has some ideas and some suggestions I could try, it would be
very appreciated.




Thanks a lot.
