Abstract

The application Scotty, implemented within the Phasertng codebase, was used to perform a PDB-wide analysis of lattice coincidences. Using a broad definition of lattice coincidence, the number of distinct lattice clusters is approximately half the total number of crystallographic PDB entries. In over one thousand lattice clusters entries are reported in different space groups, consistent with pseud…
