Re: [ccp4bb] Why the phases from sftools are flipped?

2014-10-14 Thread Bruno KLAHOLZ
Dear Steven, maybe you have to permutate the order in the way the map is read in, here is what I have used some time ago for an EM map. HTH, best regards, Bruno /usr/local/rave/rave_linux/lx_mapman < set spacegroup > P1 > set cell > 200 200 200 90.00090.00090.000 > mapin input.map

[ccp4bb] Why the phases from sftools are flipped?

2014-10-14 Thread Steven Chou
Dear All, I used 'sftools (in CCP4)' to convert a map (in CCP4 format) to structure factors (.mtz). However the phases were flipped. I back converted it into a map file and compared it with the original one. The back converted one was just the mirror of the original one. To get the right phase, I

Dear All, I'm trying to generate a mask from a pdb coordinate file using the 'Ncsmask' utility of CCP4 (Map & Mask Utilities => Create/Edit Masks). The parameters I used are: = Radius for building mask from atoms 10.0 angstrom. Space group P1 Set map extent x

Re: [ccp4bb] Refinement of Iron-sulphur clusters

Dear Oliver, Since you mentioned my name let me try to confuse the issue. The iron atoms in Fe4S4 clusters can adopt different oxidation states, e.g. in HiPIPs and Ferrodoxins, and one might expect this to influence the geometry of the clusters. So maybe you would need several different sets of re

Re: [ccp4bb] coot: protein sequence number too large to be displayed

There is not a straightforward fix. There is a limit of 2^15 on pixel indexing on (some?) X11 servers, I believe. If you compile your own coot, you can try changing scroll_width_max in src/nsv.cc to 64700. Paul. On 10/10/14 14:52, Yong Tang wrote: Thanks Tim for the input - so far you are th

Tim, I would not consider this as incorrect! What sftools calculates is R_scale, a symmetric version of an R-value. Makes sense when comparing two data sets, or two model amplitudes. Clearly, it gives values which differ from model R values. But at least it defines what it prints out. I put th
