2018-01-26 Thread Alessandro Costa
dear all, a new postdoctoral position is available at the Francis Crick Institute in London. Our group (Est. 2012) works on the mechanism of eukaryotic chromosome replication. We are looking for an enthusiastic researcher interested in how molecular machines function. The perfect candidat

Is that positive density lying at the symmetry axis ? please check, if yes then probably you have to model the appropriate compound with appropriate occupancy. Best Prem On Fri, Jan 26, 2018 at 11:10 PM, Vivoli, Mirella wrote: > Hi Tristan! > Definitely PEG, in the so called horseshoe shape.

I've been quite impressed by ClusPro (https://cluspro.bu.edu) in the past. Rather than pure rigid-body docking it makes some (pretty good) effort to adjust interacting sidechains into reasonable arrangements. The advanced options also allow you to specify attractions and repulsions between spec

Dear Keitaro, I have come to the exact same conclusions, and the next version of XDS will revert to the old refinement behavior. As a preview, I've uploaded a fixed Linux binary (not the whole package, just xds_par) to ftp://turn5.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/pub/xds/xds_par.refi_cell_position_t
