[ccp4bb] Off-topic: crystallization after refolding

2010-07-12 Thread meindert lamers
Dear all, I can get large amounts of a protein that is purified from inclusion bodies. The protein is solubilized using 6M urea and refolded by dialysis. However, treatment with urea is known to modify proteins (N-term/Lys/Arg), which could ultimately effect crystallization. Is this somethi

Re: [ccp4bb] HKL2000 and incompleteness

2009-04-12 Thread meindert lamers
Hi Engin, I have seen the same with HKL2000, especially with weak diffracting crystals. Don't know if this is correct, but another way to overcome this is to lower the value of "error density" during integration. I've seen the value for error density vary between different sites (beamlin

[ccp4bb] Convention on residue numbering of fusion proteins?

2012-10-23 Thread Meindert Lamers
Dear all, Is there any convention on the numbering of residues in a fusion protein? I have a structure of two domains fused together but would like to keep the biological numbering intact. 1st domain: residue 200-300 (protein A). 2nd domain: residue 170-350 (protein B). The fusion is between A
