[ccp4bb] Enhancing Crystal Quality

2012-08-01 Thread Yi-Liang Liu
Hi CCP4BBers, I have a protein crystallized with 0.2mM Mg acetate and PEG 8000 or 0.1mM cacodylate, pH 6.5, 0.2 Mg acetate, PEG 3350. Both of the conditions gave triangle pyramid like crystals. I brought the crystals to synchrotron using 30% PEG 400 as cryoprotactant, the resolution was only be

[ccp4bb] Protein-Protein Complex Screening

2011-11-17 Thread Yi-Liang Liu
Hi CCP4ers, I know it is not quiet related to CCP4. I am now working on a protein-protein complex system. I am wondering which kits I should try in a higher priority? I appreciate everyone's suggestions, and maybe there are some papers I can read first. Lucas

[ccp4bb] Fo-Fo Difference Map

2010-05-03 Thread Yi-Liang Liu
Hi Everyone, I've checked the previous posts about how to generate the difference map from two crystals with different cell constants. I tried MAPMAN to generate this map but I never got luck on this. It turned out to show "Maps have different cell constants" every time. Does anyone know wh

[ccp4bb] Substitute for Lithium Sulfate

2010-04-23 Thread Yi-Liang Liu
Hi Everyone, I have a question about the crystallization condition. Currently the condition I use contains 0.2M lithium sulfate. However, the ligand there seems to compete the site where sulfate binds in the active site. Are there any good substitute to replace the Lithium sulfate in my c
