[ccp4bb] LN2 cryocooling system - manufacturers

2023-04-03 Thread Kristof Van Hecke
Dear all, By looking for manufacturers of LN2 cryocooling systems for in-house single-crystal X-ray diffractometers, I seems that Oxford Cryosystems is the only company nowadays providing such systems in Europe. In the past, we used to have such systems of Bruker and Oxford Instruments, but

2023-04-03 Thread Xiao, Chuan
You raised a very good question: why we are asking this question now? Maybe the answer is somewhere on the fact that Alphafold is a “revolution” in the prediction field (borrow the term from resolution revolution in cryo-EM). Anyway, when reading all these discussions, it made me think how I

Hi Robbie, Well, there is 1SRX (https://pdbe.org/1srx)) from 1976, CA-only, coordinate precision 0.05Å. The explanation is in the paper: "The maps were interpreted in terms of the known amino-acid sequence (2) and a skeletal model of one molecule was built with the Kendrew-type models using

Hi everyone, My crystal structure contains a ligand and I generated the cif file of the ligand using phenix.elbow from the smiles file of the ligand. The ligand was drawn and the smiles file was generated from https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov//edit3/index.html. My problem is that the double bond

Thanks to everyone for being such good sports! It is good to know that there is still room for good-natured funny in what can be stressful times. Truth be told, I actually did do some experiments rounding off PDB coordinates to the nearest A.  You can try it with this one-line shell
