Hi Uma,
Altering sigma affects the strength of geometry restraints throughout the model
- bonds, angles, etc. Choosing a very low sigma will cause geometry to be more
tightly restrained towards "ideal" values, which is why you observe
improvements in Coot validation. Note that strengthening th
Thank you for all your suggestions.
Rigaku have discovered that shorting a couple of the output leads together
means the new type can be used as a replacement for the old type.
I'm very happy to say that it works!
This is a similar solution to that suggested by Herman Schreuder.

It all will depend on the resolution. At low resolution, relaxing the geometric
restraints will allow the refinement program to tweak the model such that the
difference between Fobs and Fcalc is minimized, but not that the model gets
closer to the "truth". I once struggled for a long time with a

Hi Uma,
The optimal weight is indeed resolution dependent, but hard to predict. In
Refmac you can follow LLfree when you optimize the restraint weight and also
keep an eye on the gap between R and R-free (it should not be too wide). Like

Could someone explain to me the scientific details of the protocols used
in X-PLOR to (1) build explicit hydrogen atoms onto X-ray structures and
(2) optimize their positions?
Many thanks in advance.

Hongjun,
I am in agreement with Bert as DDM is exceedingly difficult to crystallize,
even in organic solvents. This is one of the reasons it is so expensive.
However, you can produce a lot of "quasi"-crystals that do show low resolution

Wouldn't the lack of solubility of the alpha form of DDM suggest an easy

Nadir,
There is an explicit bulletin board for questions regarding CNS and XPLOR. I
would suggest posting your question there.

Jacob,
The solubility of the alpha anomer of DDM is actually not bad (it's only really
bad for the alkyl glucosides), just the phase behavior is different. Still
getting pure beta anomer is the tough problem, which is part of the reason it
is so expensive.

www.pdbe.org clearly shows both.

It might be a portal issue. But the pdb staff is very helpful in getting

For those who still don't use Coot is there an automatic water picking

Many years ago there was a peakmax which is now for Patterson peaks only. Then
there was routine through Arp/wArp. Now is Coot only. Is this right?
Thanks.

Dear crystallographers
A very basic question, for anisotropic diffraction, does data truncation with
ellipsoidal method change the symmetry? For example, if untruncated data is
space group P6, will truncated data index as P622 or P2?
Thank you.
Theresa
Anisotropic truncation should have no effect on the space group symmetry.

Dear ,
according to my 'man watpeak' and 'man peakmax' in ccp4-6.2.993 there
is no restrictionof these programs to Patterson peaks (which would
anyhow require a total rewrite, considering that peakmax acts on maps
rather than Pattersion maps).
