Re: [ccp4bb] ligand fitting, refinement?

Hi Rui, for some reasons, I also always encounter problems when building new ligand by CCP4 Sketcher. You can try PRODRUG ( http://davapc1.bioch.dundee.ac.uk/prodrg/index.html) to build your new ligand and get the cif from the server, it always works for me. HTH, Matt 2009/11/27 rui > Hi, > > I

David had developed an empirical theory to model the air, solvent, Compton & acoustic contributions and correct the integrated data for these, without background correction of course since the optic DS background was ultimately to be our data! ... Hi Ian, did David publish this theory somewhere

Hi, I found this old post in ccp4 and it's very useful. I used the same procedure Scott described to add a ligand into pdb file. What I did, is in coot, search for the ligand in the library and find the ligand and then merge. However, when I tried to refine in refmac, it has some problems, it comp

Ian Surely the Bragg peaks, acoustic and optic components of the diffuse scatter all occupy a finite volume in reciprocal space. In x-ray scattering/diffraction the area they occupy on a detector therefore expands as the detector is moved further away. However, one will not always see this. If the

Hi Colin Yes I know, I worked with David Moss at Birkbeck for many years to develop software to process the DS data. I think the point of using finely collimated SRS X-rays (from the Daresbury SRS of course!) was to scale down the spot size of both the Bragg & acoustic peaks by the same factor, s
