I agree. I think it depends on the lab and vectors and personal preference. But David, have you used them sequentially? I have once tried to make a His-GST-ENLYFQ-3C construct, and I found that it was self cleaving during expression. However I have never tried to replicate the results in vitro.

Hi Patrick I also just downloaded a Neggia library yesterday with data from SLS, on the newest XDS, and it was ok. Try the library here: https://github.com/dectris/neggia/releases However to me it looks like it cannot read the header information. Is the master.h5 file in the same directory as

Ive always quenched and loaded directly. Never had a problem (for methylation reactions that are done in aldehydes) . However, you should ensure the column is already cleaned before and I would advise you to clean it after as well with NaOH, just in case you have excess glutaraldehyde and prote

: For occasions like Laus, it would be useful to further on have access to the CCP4 v7.0 Program Documentation, even if the programs are not updated as Christian explained. I was for instance looking for translating coordinates as in pdbset, but couldn't find a replacement in the ccp4i2 gui.

old fft task was discontinued. i2 works with coefficients, which generates smaller files and Coot provides all the functions to generate the map and is its own gui. Hope that explains a bit why things are how they are now. Cheers Christian On Tue, Jul 7, 2020 at 1:56 PM Lau Kelvin mailto:kelv

Dear Artem, By work poorly do you mean, not as well and are you referring to all Expi cells? We have adapted ExpiCHO cells to another medium and although we see drastic decrease from using the complete Expi system (x15 volumetric yield), it was still considerably higher than our previous cells
