Hello all - I have been looking at some electron density from the EDS and wondering why it didn't appear to match up with the coordinates. Then I found that it appears PyMOL (v 1.3), when requesting a "2fofc" map, actually reads in the fofc, and vice versa. Here's a script to illustrate the point (using the coordinate example from the Fetch page on the wiki, along with the manually downloaded maps from EDS (saved as *_eds.omap in the same directory).
########## start script ########## ### Using Fetch from within PyMOL ### fetch 1cll, async=0 as sticks set stick_radius, 0.12 # Fetched "2fofc" fetch 1cll, type=2fofc, async=0 isomesh 2fofc_mesh, 1cll_2fofc, 1.5 color blue, 2fofc_mesh # Fetched "fofc" fetch 1cll, type=fofc, async=0 isomesh fofc_mesh, 1cll_fofc, 1.5 color magenta, fofc_mesh zoom i. 34-35 clip atoms, 1, i. 34-35 png fetch_maps.png reinitialize ### Using Manually Downloaded Maps ### fetch 1cll, async=0 as sticks set stick_radius, 0.12 # Downloaded "2mFo-DFc" from EDS directly load 1cll_eds.omap, 1cll_2fofc isomesh 2fofc_mesh, 1cll_2fofc, 1.5 color blue, 2fofc_mesh # Downloaded "mFo-DFc" from EDS directly load 1cll_diff_eds.omap, 1cll_fofc isomesh fofc_mesh, 1cll_fofc, 1.5 color magenta, fofc_mesh zoom i. 34-35 clip atoms, 1, i. 34-35 png eds_maps.png ########## end script ########## The resulting images can be seen at <http://bit.ly/gPTtbw>. It appears that PyMOL is switching the 1cll.omap and 1cll_diff.omap somewhere along the way. Perhaps this has been fixed in v1.4? I couldn't find any mention of this problem in the wiki/archives.
