[ccp4bb] Haem-cysteine interactions

2010-01-14 Thread Thomas Womack
One of the features that Global Phasing's routine runs of deposited PDB structures often pick up is very close contacts between the SG of cysteine residues and the CAB and CAC atoms of the propenyl groups on HEM ligands, not described by LINK cards in the header of the deposited structure.

Yes, thanks for asking. Having 6 active sites in my AU, showed that 4 of them had a single beta-mercaptoethanol molecule, and the other two had the density I posted here. It turned out to be a single BME in 2 different conformations. thanks for the help and suggestions!

[ccp4bb] DSSP server

Hello all, I am sorry for this off-topic question. I see it has been discussed many times, but somehow I got stuck in the very beginning. I want to assign ss to my pdb file in DSSP, but I could not find a server to run it. Does anybody know a webserver where I could run this kind of tasks?

Hello Jane, if I remember correctly, rasmol uses the dssp algorithm for the secondary structure assignment. You can also use pymol or molscript (molauto) for the same task. In any case you should always check the boundaries of the secondary structure elements manually because no program is

Jane, you could use ksDSSP, which is an OpenSource implementation of DSSP. Requires some compiling though and I am not sure if OSX is supported. You also need to compile the PDB record I/O libraries. http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/Overview/software.html Cheers, Carsten -Original

Hi, you can use the nice tool dssp2pdb by James Stroud (http://structure.usc.edu/dssp2pdb) to assign the ss of the DSSP output to your pdb file. See instructions there. HTH Guenter I am sorry for this off-topic question. I see it has been discussed many times, but somehow I got stuck in
