[ccp4bb] Alternative origin list in CCP4 documentation |
|
CCP4bb navigationCCP4bb <-- 2008 <-- February 2008 <-- 05 February 2008Subject: Alternative origin list in CCP4 documentation From: Stefano TRAPANI trapani {- dot -} stef {- at -} GMAIL {- dot -} COM Date: 2008-02-05 In the CCP4 documentation about alternative origins for spacegroups (http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/dist/html/alternate_origins.html) one can find the following table: _________________________________________________ P 1 m 1 SG No: 6 (Standard short HM symbol: Pm) Number of alternate origins: 2 This is a polar spacegroup: the origin is not fixed along the C axis Norigin Xo Yo Zo 1 0.0000 0.0000 ?????? 2 0.0000 0.5000 ?????? _________________________________________________ However, I would expect that the choice of the origin for this space group be arbitrary on the mirror plane, i.e.: _________________________________________________ The origin is not fixed in the AC plane Norigin Xo Yo Zo 1 ?????? 0.0000 ?????? 2 ?????? 0.5000 ?????? _________________________________________________ Similarly, I would expect that the tables for space group P1c1 (No 7), C1m1 (No 8) be different from those in the documentation (I have not checked for other space groups ...) Is it correct what I am saying or am I missing something?
