Abstract:
The automation of macromolecular structure determination by X-ray crystallography has long been a goal for many researchers. Recently, there have been improvements in the underlying algorithms, some of which have been implemented in software packages that deal with multiple stages of the structure determination process. These first steps towards complete automation have made X-ray crystallography more efficient.
