Hi, External structure atomic bond distance restraints for use in refmac are generated using ProSMART. The webpage is here: http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/mxstat/Rob/index.html Email me if you want a pre-release version. Regards, Rob On 9 Jul 2011, at 18:00, Robbie Joosten wrote: > Hi Qixu, >

Re: [ccp4bb] B factor Coloring in Pymol

Hi, I'm aware of two ways to do this: by writing the colour as a word, e.g: color white, (mypdbfile//A/*/*) which will colour a whole chain. Or by using rgb colours, e.g: set_color newcolor0 = [1,1,1]; color newcolor0, (mypdbfile//A/2/*) which will colour individual residues (residue 2 in this

Hi Petr, Have you tried looking at the clashscore, and other statistics provided by MolProbity? I think this is exactly what you're looking for. It's a pretty good resource for ironing out errors during final refinement stages: http://molprobity.biochem.duke.edu/ Regards, Rob On 27 Aug

Dear Xavier, I recommend having a look at a few of the articles that were published in the special issue of Acta Cryst D from June this year - Proceedings of the third CCP-EM Spring Symposium. https://journals.iucr.org/d/issues/2018/06/00/ Best regards, Rob -- Original Message --

I believe Julia is absolutely right. The other consideration that I haven’t seen mentioned yet in this thread is the effect on refinement. If you truncate a side chain or set it to zero occupancy then the bulk solvent mask would contain that region that is actually occupied by the flexible side

2023-03-16 Thread Rob Nicholls
Dear Marian, How do you know that it’s still a double bond? Is it due to the way that it’s displayed in Coot, or based on the interatomic distances after refinement? Could you have a look in the AceDRG link dictionary (.cif) and confirm the order of the bond? Search for a “_chem_mod_bond” loop

Dear Rens, CCP4i2 now contains a CIF dictionary accumulator, which should help with handling such problems (note it's also available as standalone to be used via command line if that's useful). This is used automatically when providing multiple ligand CIF dictionaries to the Refinement interfac

Hi Luca, You should find that the hydrogens in the mmCIF file output by Refmac are flagged as riding hydrogens, not as an explicit part of the model. This behaviour is as intended, and should not pose a problem for deposition. They are not in the output PDB file because there is no way to flag
