[ccp4bb] Slow performance of Refmac in CCP4 7.0

2017-04-24 Thread Miłosz Ruszkowski
Dear All, Do you have any suggestions on how to fix the very slow performance of Refmac included in the CCP4 7.0 (with all updates). On the same machine, the job takes less than half of the time (often a third) if it is run from under CCP4 6.5 (Refmac ver. 5.8.0103). We tested desktops/laptops on

I suspect most (if not all) refinement software now have a nice way to deal with NCS in refinement locally. Technically, this means you can use NCS restraints at any resolution and software should be able to be careful and not wipe out local differences between NCS copies. In phenix.refine this is

Not quite sure what you mean but I suppose you refined with NCS restraints and the red bar means that your chains in those regions are not identical. I would turn NCS restraints off during refinement, with your resolution there is no real good reason to include them. You probably have to do some

Hi Schreuder, Thank you for your suggestion. As per the electron density, the conformation is very obvious. So I think whatever NCS outliers are there in structure, are real ones. Thanking you all, On 24-Apr-2017 1:29 PM, wrote: > Dear Vipul, > > > > At this resolution and with these Rfactors

I am not from any structure biology related group. So I have followed literatures​ for the structure solution and analysis. At this level all stereochemical and geometry looks good. The only parameter I could see with some red bar was NCS difference. *Through literature, I couldn't understand if so

Dear Vipul, At this resolution and with these Rfactors you are not supposed to „correct“ the NCS outliers. Look into the electron density maps if they are well defined and if the different conformations can be explained by e.g. crystal contacts. However, if they are in a less well-defined regio

Minimizing a red bar may be tricky.. Have you tried to make it less red (blue or may be green)? Otherwise Rw/Rf~20/25 is just fine at 2.2A resolution. What exactly your worry is about? Pavel On Mon, Apr 24, 2017 at 12:48 AM, Vipul Panchal wrote: > Hi all, > > I am solving structure of one of the

Hi all, I am solving structure of one of the acyltransferse protein. We have collected data at 2.16A resolution. Currently the Rfree is 0.2508 and Rwork is 0.2042. *My query is regarding NCS difference.* Under validation tool of coot while looking for NCS differene, i can find some residues with
