And just to add a little further to Mark's point, is there anyone here who
has at some stage received reviewer comments and NOT immediately spent the
next little while trying to deduce who each of the reviewers were?

Many (more) reviewers - [panic on Roberto's face]
Isn't real peer-review just a question of standing the test of time?

Even if you remove the authors it is often easy to ascertain who they are by
reading the paper and reference list.

Hi Marco,

Precisely because in this ocean of untrusted publications we tend to

more or less all right: among those who have investigated the issue some

Hi scientists,
this interesting topic brought back to my mind a similar discussion I had with
a colleague of mine and now I want to share it with you guys.
As Vale already pointed out, the peer-review process seems to be far from an
ideal system: there are many papers in which one of the author i

Good point. Now since you mentioned contributions of the recent Nobel laureates to crystallography Mike Levitt also had a significant contribution through the by now forgotten Jack-Levitt refinement which to the best of my knowledge was the first time

Perhaps because the (macromolecular) crystallography community is becoming a
bit blase about Nobel prizes being awarded to one or several of its
distinguished colleagues almost every year?

Sorry for a provocative question, but I am surprised why nobody

Hi all,
Thank you guys so much for the useful suggestions. I could fit the ligand
to electron density by doing the following:
1. Run Phenix. eLBOW by loading the smile string and generate the pdb file
and cif file.
2. Import CIF dictionary and open pdb for the ligand generated in
Phenix.eLBOW and p

Hi Navdeep,
I feel disappointed. (not your fault)
I was hoping to see what kind of science was behind the computer program
that generated the unique papers. That doesn't seem to be contained in the
linked article.
The article does, however, seem to be lacking in peer review itself? Or can

John Bohannon wrote about his experience writing "a computer program to
generate hundreds of unique papers." Thought some of you might find it of

Resonance was to be understood exactly as meaning all the bonds are
averaged between both types (single and double bonds).
Furthermore, fluctuations in the immediate environment will affect
electron distribution with time, as proteins exist in a dynamic state.

Gloria,
Here is how we are now doing it, courtesy of Yu-Jing's and Merlin's fine
development work. We have also tried it to quantitatively remove tags by TEV
cleavage, but we haven't solved that problem yet.
