It’s p3221. Re-process your data forcing this space group, rebuild, and refine 
twin domains. Just do it—you won’t regret it!

You say you only have 2 molecules in the asymmetric unit of P32,therefor there 
must only be one in SGs P32 21 P32 12

So I dont understand why you have PHASER results like this:

SOLU SET  RFZ=4.4 TFZ=7.7 PAK=0 LLG=55 TFZ==9.6 LLG=350 TFZ==20.5 PAK=0 LLG=350 
TFZ==20.5..



Why so many TFZ here - is that achieved after refinement or something?

It’s hard to interpret MR results otherwise.

Also, since the higher-symmetry SG works in MR, you should try to refine the 
model in that SG, with only two twin domains, refining twin fraction. I can 
guarantee that a good reviewer will have you do this (if not, then not a “good

Pointless gives a very useful table of the CC agreement for each possible 
symmetry operator individually.
In this case with only two molecules in the asymmetric unit you you could only 
have a higher symmetry SG as
P32 21 P32 12 or P64

These would require as symmetry operators -
P32 21 - a three fold and a two fold k h -l
P32 12 - a three fold and a two fold -k -h -l

P64 - a six fold

If the scores for one set are better than the others you probably have that SG

However high degrees of twinning can disguise the symmetry scores of course..

Re: [ccp4bb] Refmac5 twin refinement pushing Rfree surprisingly down

2017-04-14 Thread Eleanor Dodson
That twin factor list  means the apparent crystal symmetry must be P6/mmm.

You say you only have 2 molecules in the asymmetric unit of P32,therefor
there must only be one in SGs P32 21 P32 12

So I dont understand why you have PHASER results like this:

SOLU SET  RFZ=4.4 TFZ=7.7 PAK=0 LLG=55 TFZ==9.6 LLG=350 TFZ==20.5
PAK=0 LLG=350 TFZ==20.5..


Why so many TFZ here - is that achieved after refinement or something?


Eleanor


And what does the twinning analysis suggest?

Re: [ccp4bb] Refmac5 twin refinement pushing Rfree surprisingly down

2017-04-14 Thread Keller, Jacob
As I mentioned off-list, it would be helpful to know how many types of search 
models you are searching with—how many different molecules are in the complex? 
It’s hard to interpret MR results otherwise.

Also, since the higher-symmetry SG works in MR, you should try to refine the 
model in that SG, with only two twin domains, refining twin fraction. I can 
guarantee that a good reviewer will have you do this (if not, then not a “good 
reviewer.”)

In this case with only two molecules in the asymmetric unit you you could only 
have a higher symmetry SG as
P32 21 P32 12 or P64

These would require as symmetry operators -
P32 21 - a three fold and a two fold k h -l
P32 12 - a three fold and a two fold -k -h -l

P64 - a six fold

If the scores for one set are better than the others you probably have that SG

However high degrees of twinning can disguise the symmetry scores of course..

First - four way twinning is possible but pretty rare for macromolecules

Pointless gives a very useful table of the CC agreement for each possible
symmetry operator individually.
In this case with only two molecules in the asymmetric unit you you could
only have a higher symmetry SG as
P32 21 P32 12 or P64

These would require as symmetry operators -
P32 21 - a three fold and a two fold k h -l
P32 12 - a three fold and a two fold -k -h -l

P64 - a six fold

If the scores for one set are better than the others you probably have that
SG

However high degrees of twinning can disguise the symmetry scores of
course..

Try MR with one copy in all space groups of PG 321/312 using Phaser. Going from 
PG 3 to PG 32 should halve the number of copies per ASU. You may have to 
re-process your data in the higher point group to do this.

Or you might actually have a tetartohedral twin, but just try with the 
higher-symmetry point group first, see what happens.

Twin refinement cannot be compared directly to untwinned - the R factors are 
between different parameters - without twinning it is assumed you have an 
amplitude obtained more or less from sqrt(I   But for a twinned data set that I 
is actually [ I1 + twin_factor I2 ] so the amplitude is not really correct and 
twinned refinement will give a much better estimate.

However you need to be careful that you have assigned the same FreeR flag to 
reflection pair related by the twin law. The modern program in the CCP4 data 
reduction pipeline looks after this pretty automatically - all possible 
symmetry equivalents are assigned the same FreeR but older software did not do 
this..

You can check it by looking at some twin equivalents - in SG P32 these could be 
h k l and -h, -k, l or h k l and k h -l  or h k l and -k, -h, -l .

Ideally they all should have the same Free R flag..

You are not giving the number after  refinement without the twin refinement. 
Nevertheless, R-free drops like this are not unheard of. You should check your

also give you a refined estimate of the twin fraction.

Hi Keller,

Thanks for the suggestions! I only have two copies in ASU at SG P32. Zanuda
also suggests P32 is the best SG.

Re: [ccp4bb] Refmac5 twin refinement pushing Rfree surprisingly down

2017-04-13 Thread Keller, Jacob
Yes, this was my case exactly—it looks like there are two pairs of coupled twin 
domains: a,c and b,d. Assuming you have multiple copies of your model in the 
same ASU, try doing MR in higher symmetry space groups of point group 312 or 
321, like P3212 etc. There is this handy page with all the space groups and 
their possible twin operators: http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/html/twinning.html.

The twin fractions indicate a high twin fraction—~46% if actually hemihedral!

Also take a look at the paper I referenced for more info. I can send you a .pdf 
if you need me to.

Please let me know how it works out—I am interested in these types of things!

Twin refinement cannot be compared directly to untwinned - the R factors are 
between different parameters - without twinning it is assumed you have an 
amplitude obtained more or less from sqrt(I   But for a twinned data set that I 
is actually [ I1 + twin_factor I2 ] so the amplitude is not really correct and 
twinned refinement will give a much better estimate.

However you need to be careful that you have assigned the same FreeR flag to 
reflection pair related by the twin law. The modern program in the CCP4 data 
reduction pipeline looks after this pretty automatically - all possible 
symmetry equivalents are assigned the same FreeR but older software did not do 
this..

You can check it by looking at some twin equivalents - in SG P32 these could be 
h k l and -h, -k, l or h k l and k h -l  or h k l and -k, -h, -l .

Ideally they all should have the same Free R flag..

twin refine map.

I do not know if reviewers are going to challenge this part.

Any input is appreciated.
