The Fourier Duck

If we only have the high resolution terms of the diffraction pattern, we see only the edges of the duck:


Crystallographic Interpretation:

It may be difficult to distinguish the solvent and protein regions. This will handicap both building and density modification. You may need to contour at a lower level inside the protein. There are prominent artifact peaks in the solvent.

Do not omit your low resolution data. Collect it and use it.
