Re: [ccp4bb] Big density blobs near Arg and His residues or Thr residues

I would try chloride and potassium in those sites and see whether that refines well. Cheers, Robbie On 17 Apr 2019 07:49, WENHE ZHONG wrote: Dear all, We found a huge density blob close to residues Arg and His (see attached) and another big density blob near three Thr residues (see attached)

Ah, even though it seems a long time ago, approximately one out of every two referee comments that I receive complain about our modern methods for processing, scaling and reporting our data collection/processing/refinement statistics. I’m afraid it’s an ongoing effort at education. Diana *

Dear all, The last resolution shell is 3.1-3.2 Å. I corrected high resolution Rmerge and Rmeas which seemed truncated, and added cc1/2. Rsym is Rpim which was a typo. Resolution range (Å) 49.2-3.1 49.3-3.1 Rfactor (%)

At least last fall, the state of the art for getting your T7-transcribed RNA to start with a triphosphate in phenix was to add this file (edited for your chains, of course) through the gui (if you use the gui). Thanks to Deepak Koirala and Nigel Moriarty for help in working this out. * Phoeb

Why are the the values for R(free) in parentheses higher than R(factor) in parentheses? I would not expect that to happen, if the same resolution limits for the last shell are used for both values. And I echo the previous commentator, please provide the resolution limits for the values in parent

Dear all, on top of other peoples remarks and out of interest: (1) What is the supposed difference between Rmerge and Rsym in your table and what software/tool computed those? Are you sure Rsym is not supposed to be Rpim? There is a slight historical difference between the Rmerge

Dear Jan, You statistics look quite solid. R-factors are not good criteria to judge the resolution cut-off. The weighting schemes in refinement programs have much improved since the late 1990s. A good starting point to learn more is Rupp's "Against Method: Table 1 -Cui Bono?", https://doi.org/
