Dear All, We are pleased to announce the release of the Phaser 2.1.1 module as an update to the CCP4 6.0.2 public release. This replaces Phaser 1.3.3 which was part of the original 6.0.2 release.
Phaser 2.1.1 includes SAD Phasing and Combined MR and SAD Phasing. For full details, see the included documentation or the Phaser home page http://www-structmed.cimr.cam.ac.uk/phaser/ Phaser is kindly provided by Randy Read's group at the University of Cambridge. The updated Phaser module is available through the automated Downloads page: http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/download/downloadman.php and from the Daresbury ftp server. The module can be taken as a module of a fresh CCP4 6.0.2 installation, or it can be added to an existing 6.0.2 installation. In particular, the automated script install.sh will check for an existing CCP4 installation, and give you the option of installing Phaser there. On windows platform you are provided with a Cumulative-update-3.exe file that should apply the update and known fixes; this can be installed on a fresh ccp4 installation as well as on a ccp4 installation on which you performed earlier updates. In ccp4i, there is an updated phaser_MR task, as well as a new phaser_EP task. If you updating an existing CCP4 installation, then the ccp4i interface should be updated automatically. The separate release of the Phaser module is part of a general move towards a more modular system for the CCP4 suite. The Linux installer now also contains Phaser (as a part of the main CCP4 in the choice). Enjoy!
