thanks joana, it is true that you can give a set of coordinates to Caver, but to my knowledge, Caver look for tunnels only. It does not seem to compute the volume of surface pockets or internal cavities. best nathalie Le 06/07/2020 à 15:46, Joana Pereira a écrit : Hi Nathalie, I think

Hi all I'm designing genes for expression in M. smegmatis (safe host for Mtb proteins), but its not possible (or advisable due to the GC content) to optimise for mycobacterial expression. Would anyone with experience be able to tell me if its fine to stick with the E. coli codon optimisation,

Dear nathalie, from the top of my head, I use FLOOD from Upsala software factory: The program fills in water molecules in the cavity; you can specify a radius and start from a point in the pdb, like a side chain atom or you can put a dummy water molecule in the middle of your cavity and start

Hi Christian, I was in particular looking for the fft program (I couldn’t find that using the method you described) just to convert an mtz into a .map. Before in version 7.0 I could just browse all programs, now it seems like I cannot do that (other than using the filter, and some seem to be mi

Hi Kelvin, well fft as single program is kind of not longer supported as is not ccp4i. In i2 internally, as well in communication with mg or coot, everything is done using map coefficients. Their are two options: First via i2: Use the unusual map coefficients Task and choose not to compare maps, bu

Dear Kelvin, the command 'ls $CBIN' lists the majority of CCP4 programs on your system. This probably even works under Windows 10, since the powershell acts like a linux/unix shell. Best regards, Tim On Tue, 7 Jul 2020 16:00:18 + Lau Kelvin wrote: > Ah I see! Great I can run it that way >

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. Gr

I dont expect anyone to install these in the interface, and indeed if COOT told you the symmetry operators in a comprehensive way the distang style searches would be almost redundant .. But sometimes it helps to have textual information.. clearer andeasier to record than graphical messages.. E O
