Regards John From: CCP4 bulletin board <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> On Behalf Of Paul Emsley Sent: 21 June 2018 17:30 To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] Regarding symmetry notion in coot On 20/06/18 20:49, Anurag Misra wrote: What is the meaning of the last field — the one in curly brackets -- that describes the symmetry transformation of a given molecule in coot? See Section 4.11 of Coot User Manual: "Symmetry" For example, for a given X Y Z, coot displays the symmetry transformation of an equivalent position as " -X, Y+1/2, Z + (0 -1 1) & { 1 0 1 }”. Can the symmetry molecule be written like bellow by summing respective values? In the general case, no. Move your molecule closer to the origin - so that the pre-translation is (0,0,0) - then coot will report "conventional" symmetry.
