Figure 2.3.3.6

A plot of mean isomorphous differences as a function of resolution. (a) The theoretical size of mean differences following roughly a Gaussian distribution. (b) The observed size of differences for a good isomorphous derivative where the smaller higher-order differences have been largely masked by the error of measurement. (c) Observed differences where `lack of isomorphism' dominates beyond approximately 5 Å resolution.
