Abstract
The program SIR2000 [Burla et al. (2000). Acta Cryst. A56, 451-457] was des igned for the ab initio solution of macromolecular crystal structures, prov ided that the data resolution is no lower than 1.2 Angstrom. As the phasing procedure of SIR2000 is rather time consuming, modifications have been int roduced to improve its efficiency and to make it additionally suitable for small molecules (new version SIR2000-N). The role of the tangent refinement in modern phasing procedures is enlightened.
