Hi Ed, Bruker used to supply a utility called FRM2FRM that would "unwarp" their images so that they were readable by Mosflm. You may want to consult them directly; Matt Benning (I believe he's still there) was most helpful when I was having problems with Bruker images a few years ago. HTH, I

I'm trying to colour a molecular surface by sequence conservation...(sorry, I think I incorrectly posted this to COOTBB the other day) I've figured out how to do it in GRASP - modify the B-factor column in the PDB file to represent the percentage conservation and then colour the surface by B-facto

u not just mutate the offending residue in your PDB file to get protskin to run (eg in coot or pdb-mode). Then afterwards you can manually alter the B-factor for that residue to what it should actually be and then run grasp etc. Cheers, Charlie Iain Kerr wrote: I tried that. My protein has a m
