Re: [ccp4bb] Unusual dataset with high Rmerge and extremely low b-factors?

2019-11-03 Thread Jon Cooper
Given that the I/sigma(I) is quite low the high R-merge values are probably to be expected. If the data were stronger, an R-merge that high would indicate that the space group was wrong or the data misindexed. If the multiplicity was higher you could process the data in lower symmetry space group (

Re: [ccp4bb] saving coordinates with respect to map in ChimeraX

2021-06-28 Thread Jon Cooper
It's not important, but I am curious what 'Save relative to model/map' actually means in that widget. Is it just a case of copying the relevant CRYST1 card? I think Faisal is asking how to save new/modified coordinates but probably I misunderstood... Cheers, Jon.C. Sent from ProtonMail mobile

Hello, do you start with a loop and coot/refmac give you back a loop or do you start with a strand and get a loop back? Which fits the density best and how good is the initial fit? Are there any extra restraints which always make it loop back on itself when it shouldn't ;-? Cheers, Jon.C. Sent
