Re: [ccp4bb] mutate Methionine to Norleucine in Coot.

Hi Garib, I deleted the Met residue and imported the nle.cif file into the dictionary and checked the "create a molecule" box.I then used "real space refinement" to align it correctly with the electron density. I then save the merged molecule as a new pdb file but when I reopened the new file, I

Re: [ccp4bb] mutate Methionine to Norleucine in Coot.

NLE is in the monomer library. However, it is marked as non-polymer. The reason why it is non-polymer is that one of the hydrogen atoms on N is called HN2 (in peptides they are H, H2 and H3). One easy way would be replace HN2 with H and save in a cif file. Then read it in coot using “import cif dic

[ccp4bb] mutate Methionine to Norleucine in Coot.

Hello Guys, I have a question regarding how to change the standard amino acid in my structure to Norleucine. It turned out that the one Methionine should be Norleucine. I tried to use the coot's mutation method but didn't find NLE(Norleucine) there. Any suggestions? Thank you, Best, Jiang Lin Ch

Re: [ccp4bb] NCS restraints in Refmac5

Dear Massimo, This was a bug in Refmac and has been fixed in Refmac5.8.0385 which will be hopefully released with the next CCP4 update. However, local NCS restraints do not impose restraints on B-factors, so you do not have to worry about that. Best regards, Keitaro On Thu, 13 Oct 2022 at 14:05
