 Dear all:

 I am facing a display issue in pymol. In my structure, there is a nucleic
 acid chain with some monomers which are modified nucleotides built in
 scketcher of ccp4 suite. However, When I showed the structure in pymol as
 cartoon, the nucleic acid chain was discontinuous where the monomers are
 placed. I could not get a intact nucleic acid chain except setting the
 cartoon_nucleic_acid_mode value to 1, with the backbone passing through
 ribose C3' atoms.

 I tried to add SEQRES lines into the pdb file according to the pdb
 instruction, but it doesn't work if I want the backbone to pass through
 phosphorus atoms.

 May I get some suggestions from you? Although it's not a big problem, it's
 really painful.

 Thanks a lot and best,

[ccp4bb] PyMol and Schrodinger

2014-04-23 Thread Cygler, Miroslaw
Hi,
I have inquired at Schrodinger about the licensing for PyMol. I was surprised 
by their answer. The access to PyMol is only through a yearly licence. They do 
not offer the option of purchasing the software and using the obtained version 
without time limitation. This policy is very different from many other software 
packages, which one can use without continuing licensing fees and additional 
fees are only when an upgrade is needed. At least I believe that Office, 
EndNote, Photoshop and others are distributed this way.
I also remember very vividly the Warren’s reason for developing PyMol, and that 
was the free access to the source code. He later implemented fees for 
downloading binary code specific for one’s operating system but there were no 
time restrictions on its use.
As far as I recollect, Schrodinger took over PyMol distribution and development 
promising to continue in the same spirit.  Please correct me if I am wrong.
I find the constant yearly licensing policy disturbing and will be looking for 
alternatives. I would like to hear if you have had the same experience and what 
you think about the Schrodinger policy.
Best wishes,

Mirek

This is no different than the licenses that for-profit companies are
required to purchase for most crystallography software.  In fact, it's
actually considerably more liberal than most software*, because as Jim
notes you can still obtain (and redistribute) most of the source code for
free.  From what I can tell Schrodinger has continued to make improvements
to the open-source core; some of the newer features (and the native Mac
GUI) are proprietary, but that was true ten years ago.

-Nat

(* although I believe ccp4mg is truly open-source like Coot, and unlike
CCP4 etc. which still require a license for commercial use.  Or am I
misinformed?)

From Dauter  Dauter (2001) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11250204):

The coordination geometry of halide ions is not specific. . . Halide ions
usually accept hydrogen bonds from various donor groups from the protein
and neighboring water molecules. In addition, they make van der Waals
contacts with non-polar protein atoms. . . The halide anions are monoatomic
and polarizable, and consequently able to engage in both polar and
hydrophobic interactions. . . Of the sites that are best for phasing, most
contain halide ions that are hydrogen-bonded to amide nitrogen atoms,
either from the protein mainchain or asparagine and glutamine sidechains.
In addition, good sites often make ionic pairs with arginine or lysine
residues. Sometimes, hydrogen bonds to the hydroxyl groups of threonine or
serine residues can also be observed. All halide ions are in contact with
water molecules, which can be ordered or in the bulk solvent region.

I believe chloride is a little more predictable in this respect than the
other halides (especially iodine).  Also worth quoting:

All halide ions share their sites with water molecules. Their
coordination, appearance in electron-density maps and behavior during
structure refinement is almost identical to that of fully occupied water
molecules and only rarely is it possible to differentiate bromide or
chloride ions from waters, especially if the sites are partially occupied.
These ions can, however, be easily identified by their anomalous scattering
signal.

To find Cl its worth looking at anomalous maps, especially for home source 
data, since even with partial occupancy Cl is easily located. Also, for well 
ordered Cl ions, B-factor will often refine to lower value than coordinating 
atoms when its incorrectly refined as water. Finally, in a subset of cases 
chemical environment is what you'd expect for an anion, with main chain NH 
groups, Arg/Lys side chains, and or Ser/Thr OH groups coordinating the ion.

[ccp4bb] Studentship in Crystallography and Parasitology

2014-04-23 Thread Adrian Goldman
Applications are invited for a three-year University of Leeds 110-year 
Anniversary Ph. D.  studentship to work in the Goldman and Muench groups.

The project will involve structural and functional studies of integral membrane 
pyrophosphatases, focussing on ones from pathogenic parasites such as
Leishmania and Toxoplasma.  The goal will be to solve the structure of one of 
these proteins, and use the resulting structure for drug design with 
collaborators
in Chemistry.

Candidates with a strong background in parasitology and crystallography as an 
undergraduate are encouraged to apply.

The deadline for applications is April 21st at 4pm, because the funding scheme 
closes on April 28th.  Interested applicants should fill in the web form at:
 
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://www.leeds.ac.uk/rsa/postgraduate_scholarships/UoLARS-AppForm14k=7DHVT22D9IhC0F3WohFMBA%3D%3D%0Ar=SybxPBBuwtF1%2BkyzbVqM24zfDv%2FlkGA%2BD7nn1MMA5Xo%3D%0Am=izuVxNVhpuUU8PMds6TAuIpyPZcXEYrAcbr1g1liYsQ%3D%0As=019501d4b704758630d7614492f89e9f9f65f3cd5bc83fe70ef7eda3ca9dda63

Re: [ccp4bb] Rmerge, Rmeas, I/sigma, Mn(I/sd)

2014-04-23 Thread Bernhard Rupp
 If N goes to infinity, i.e. at high or very high data multiplicity Rmerge 
 approaches Rmeas (Rrim).

Sure. And there is nothing incorrect, because the formulas are identical. 

0.8*sd(i)/I = 0.8/(I/sd(i)) 

But if you sum also over a shell of hs, that notation is incomplete losing the 
 (or Mn). 
That is the confusion at least on my side.

That's not quite correct. If N goes to infinity, i.e. at high or very high data 
multiplicity Rmerge approaches Rmeas (Rrim).

At this point it does not matter whether you write Rmerge or Rmeas equals 0.8 * 
sd(I) / I

For low multiplicity

Rrim (or Rmeas) = 0.8*sd(i)/I

is the correct expression.

 Hi,
 in the Rupp book the following relation is reported (on pag 415):
 Rmerge   0.8/I/s(I)
 referring to a relation of the linear merging R-value with the 
 signal-to-noise ratio.

 in a 2006 CCP4bb, Manfred Weiss reported:
 Rrim (or Rmeas) = 0.8*sd(i)/I

 so,

 First question: is it Rmerge or Rmeas (Rrim) that we are dealing with?

 Second question: at the denominator (of the Rupp way to write), it is the 
 aimless Mn(I/sd) (usually indicated as the real signal-to-noise ratio) or the 
 aimless I/sigma (very different from Mn(I/sd) with high redundancy)?

 Thank you very much for the clarification.

 Best,
 Roberto.

[ccp4bb] Studentship in Crystallography and Parasitology

2014-04-23 Thread Adrian Goldman
Applications are invited for a three-year University of Leeds 110-year 
Anniversary Ph. D.  studentship to work in the Goldman and Muench groups.

The project will involve structural and functional studies of integral membrane 
pyrophosphatases, focussing on ones from pathogenic parasites such as
Leishmania and Toxoplasma.  The goal will be to solve the structure of one of 
these proteins, and use the resulting structure for drug design with 
collaborators
in Chemistry.

Candidates with a strong background in parasitology and crystallography as an 
undergraduate are encouraged to apply.

The deadline for applications is April 21st at 4pm, because the funding scheme 
closes on April 28th.  Interested applicants should fill in the web form at:
 
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://www.leeds.ac.uk/rsa/postgraduate_scholarships/UoLARS-AppForm14k=7DHVT22D9IhC0F3WohFMBA%3D%3D%0Ar=kNv1axZJB3LV6HLWWpBj9Gg%2BYIu0FLSw%2BlGFJs7MNAQ%3D%0Am=AqDwo4LvguMtrub4NIDhryGOdOv4sA3cFYEqDsNmrM4%3D%0As=a5d63db0df301bc9666364d031f65baa3026855a33d1b0e1762a0a055f040efc
and send an email to a.gold...@leeds.ac.uk and s.p.mue...@leeds.ac.uk.

Informal enquiries can be addressed to both Goldman and Muench at the addresses 
above.

Stephen Muench
