2010-05-03 Thread Dale Tronrud
I've struggled with getting CCP4 to calculate Fo-Fo maps, since I usually use other software. The tricks are that the data sets have to be scaled to each other in reciprocal space, and the maps calculated with the same cell constants (which will be a lie for at least one of them). The procedur

Hi Lucas, phenix.fobs_minus_fobs_map might work for you. Example: phenix.fobs_minus_fobs_map f_obs_1_file=data1.mtz f_obs_2_file=data2.sca f_obs_1_label=FOBS1 f_obs_2_label=FOBS2 model.pdb where model.pdb is used as a source of phases for your map. To be honest, I forgot how strictly I requ

Hi Everyone, I've checked the previous posts about how to generate the difference map from two crystals with different cell constants. I tried MAPMAN to generate this map but I never got luck on this. It turned out to show "Maps have different cell constants" every time. Does anyone know wh

Here's how we do it. (May not be the most elegant, but simple enough for my undergraduates to manage.) http://capsicum.colgate.edu/chwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Model+Refinement#Restraining_metal_ligand_distances_during_refinement_in_REFMAC Cheers, Roger Rowlett On 5/3/2010 2:25 PM, hari jayara

Hi Am trying to build coordinated Zn+2 by CYS -SG atoms and have it refine properly in refmac5.5 I added ZN ions in Coot at the Fo-Fc peaks. Then I defined manually the coordination relations in a text editor using LINK records. the ions were placed in the same chain that was doing the coordinati

Another software to use is Theseus, which does very good maximum likelihood superpositions, and you can get the PCA for free, same as CA rmsd lists, the NxN matrix with differences, an "average" model with pseudo-B-factors, etc. Personally I use Rapido/ESCET and Theseus, depending on the qu
