Re: [ccp4bb] xds undefined data_range error

Hello, I had a similar problem, maybe the same error message. I think, the line NAME_TEMPLATE_OF_DATA_FRAMES=?? should be as short as possible (48 characters or something). There was a limitation of number of characters (maybe fixed in newest versions of XDS). I would creat

Hello Amit, 1. You may have to dramatically increase your protein concentration to get into the crystallization range. What is the maximum solubility of your protein? What protein concentration are you currently working with? 2. Try the UCLA surface entropy reduction server (nihserver.m

Hello, What is the actual data range at the particular line? Maybe you could append your XDS.INP to send it to the board for inspection? Did you really name the file XDS.inp? As far as I understand, xds will be looking for all upper case characters, so XDS.inp might not be read at all. Ar

Hello all, Apologies for the non-CCP4 question. I am trying to process some data collected at X6A in March. I edited the XDS.inp file for ADSC detector. When I try to run xds, however, it gives an error immediately: !!! ERROR !!! UNDEFINED DATA_RANGE= I checked the data range and the image path

Hi, Amit If you mostly got clear drops, you might first increase your protein's concentration before you try anything else. Of course, I assume you have a lot of protein, since you are think about doing lysine methylation. Best, Nian On Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at 6:24 AM, amit sharma<3112a...@gmail.com

[ccp4bb] refmac autoweight

2009-06-10 Thread Bernhard Rupp
Dear All, I am experimenting with manual vs auto-weights in refmac, meditating about the (cor)relation between -(free)LL, wa, and the B-factor restraint weights. Questions arising: 1) is there an authoritative description somewhere on the site what refmac precisely does in auto-weight mode?

2009-06-10 Thread Pamela Focia
Hello HengChiat, Could be that the brief exposure to air resulted in more nucleation sites. You could still measure data on your crystal of interest despite the presence of the tiny crystals, as they are not likely to diffract well enough to interfere with the primary diffraction pattern.

Dear All, I have a trimeric molecule (~39 kDa, pI=9.1) carrying 15 lysines in each monomer. I have tried several crystallization screens, however, I mostly get clear drops. The only conditions that I tend to get precipitates in, are the ones carrying citrate. I am beginning to methylate the lys
