Title: Selling reduction versus Niggli reduction for crystallographic lattices

Abstract

The unit-cell reduction described by Selling and used by Delone (whose early publications were under the spelling Delaunay) is explained in a simple form. The transformations needed to implement the reduction are listed. The simplicity of this reduction contrasts with the complexity of Niggli reduction.

A space for lattice representation and clustering

Journal Article Andrews, Lawrence C. ; Bernstein, Herbert J. ; Sauter, Nicholas K. - Acta Crystallographica. Section A, Foundations and Advances (Online)

Algorithms for quantifying the differences between two lattices are used for Bravais lattice determination, database lookup for unit cells to select candidates for molecular replacement, and recently for clustering to group together images from serial crystallography. It is particularly desirable for the differences between lattices to be computed as a perturbation-stable metric, i.e. as distances that satisfy the triangle inequality, so that standard tree-based nearest-neighbor algorithms can be used, and for which small changes in the lattices involved produce small changes in the distances computed. A perturbation-stable metric space related to the reduction algorithm of Selling and to the Bravaismore »« less

Converting three-space matrices to equivalent six-space matrices for Delone scalars in S ⁶

Journal Article Andrews, Lawrence C. ; Bernstein, Herbert J. ; Sauter, Nicholas K. - Acta Crystallographica. Section A, Foundations and Advances (Online)

The transformations from the primitive cells of the centered Bravais lattices to the corresponding centered cells have conventionally been listed as three-by-three matrices that transform three-space lattice vectors. Using those three-by-three matrices when working in the six-dimensional space of lattices represented as Selling scalars as used in Delone (Delaunay) reduction, one could transform to the three-space representation, apply the three-by-three matrices and then back-transform to the six-space representation, but it is much simpler to have the equivalent six-by-six matrices and apply them directly. The general form of the transformation from the three-space matrix to the corresponding matrix operating on Sellingmore »« less

Gold Standard for macromolecular crystallography diffraction data

Journal Article Bernstein, Herbert J. ; Förster, Andreas ; Bhowmick, Asmit ; ... - IUCrJ

Macromolecular crystallography (MX) is the dominant means of determining the three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules. Over the last few decades, most MX data have been collected at synchrotron beamlines using a large number of different detectors produced by various manufacturers and taking advantage of various protocols and goniometries. These data came in their own formats: sometimes proprietary, sometimes open. The associated metadata rarely reached the degree of completeness required for data management according to Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability (FAIR) principles. Efforts to reuse old data by other investigators or even by the original investigators some time later were oftenmore »« less

Best practices for high data-rate macromolecular crystallography (HDRMX)

Journal Article Bernstein, Herbert J. ; Andrews, Lawrence C. ; Diaz, Jorge A. ; ... - Structural Dynamics

In macromolecular crystallography, higher flux, smaller beams, and faster detectors open the door to experiments with very large numbers of very small samples that can reveal polymorphs and dynamics but require re-engineering of approaches to the clustering of images both at synchrotrons and XFELs (X-ray free electron lasers). The need for the management of orders of magnitude more images and limitations of file systems favor a transition from simple one-file-per-image systems such as CBF to image container systems such as HDF5. This further increases the load on computers and networks and requires a re-examination of the presentation of metadata. Inmore »« less
