Tetartohedral crystal twinning is discussed as a particular case of (pseudo)merohedral twinning when the number of twinned domains is four. Tetartohedrally twinned crystals often possess pseudosymmetry, with the rotational part of the pseudosymmetry operators coinciding with the twinning operators. Tetartohedrally twinned structures from the literature are reviewed and the recent structure determination of tetartohedrally twinned triclinic crystals of human complement factor I is discussed.
当孪晶畴数为四个时,四分面晶体孪晶被作为(假)准面孪晶的一个特殊情况进行讨论。四分面孪晶晶体通常具有赝对称性,赝对称算符的旋转部分与孪晶算符一致。本文回顾了文献中四分面孪晶结构,并讨论了人补体因子I四分面孪晶三斜晶体的最新结构测定。
