Re: [ccp4bb] how to model an average of two different amino acids at the same position in a crystal structure

2010-04-25 Thread Pavel Afonine
Hi, I you need to use altLocs to model alternative locations. A good example is this PDB file (of course there are many more in PDB): http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/files/1EJG.pdb see residues #22, 25 etc. Once you have prepared a similar PDB file, phenix.refine will take of the rest automatically.

[ccp4bb] how to model an average of two different amino acids at the same position in a crystal structure

2010-04-25 Thread Seema Mittal
Hi All, I have a structure where electron density shows that the complex crystallized is not in a unique conformation in the crystal lattice. It seems the electron density is an average of two possible orientations of the same complex. Since, the protein is bound to its substrate as a dim

cctbx is cool in principle, but I would be very happy to know how to use it with a pre-existing python like most other packages are capable of. I'm starting to lose patience reverse-engineering the install scripts to figure out how to do it. I can't seem to find instructions on the web page

Hi, I sense a misunderstanding: Cell parameters are not relevant when scaling together datasets: what matters are intensities and (depending on algorithm) directional cosines and the like. Cell parameters are relevant, along with the other experimental parameters, for knowing where to pick

Re: [ccp4bb] SUMMARY: scala and xds data

2010-04-25 Thread Peter Grey
Dear Fred and Phil, However there is no refinement of these parameters in XSCALE so if you need to scale together several crystals (e.g. very small crystals that show severe radiation damage after a few degrees) you end up with a sub-optimal combined dataset after XSCALE. I thought SCALA can take

Hi, ARP/wARP as of version 7.1 generates instructions for Refmac to carry out twin refinement during protein model building. Refmac version 5.5.16 or higher is required. ARP/wARP is not yet making active use of NCS for tracing protein chains. This development is almost accomplished and will

Hi Phil, Indeed it does, both during integration (INTEGRATE, only if you "ask for it" with the proper keyword) and in the post-refinement step (CORRECT). Normally this should be quite sufficient. I haven't seen a single case where this was not sufficient. Fred. > Message du 25/04/10 09:55 > De
