[ccp4bb] Twin refinement in Refmac

2014-05-22 Thread ulrich.goh...@mdc-berlin.de
Dear colleagues, I am in the process of refining a P2(1) structure that is marked by Scala as twinned (L-test etc.) with a twinning fraction of ca. 0.2. I am still working on the twinning problem, so no more details about this. But what puzzles me right now is that, if I feed the data with a

Dear Uli, It seems that you are dealing with psued-twinning when cell do not overlap after rotation with twin operator. In these case what is in one resolution on one of the orientation becomes another resolution in another orientation of crystals In short:. You have an operator R that

Dear Garib, thanks for the clarification. I'll go back to the raw data and check for split spots at high resolution (and give Mosflm a try; initially, the data were integrated with XDS). Cheers, Uli --- dr ulrich

Is this twinning or several crystals indexed according to different conventions? You usually see evidence of twinning for each crystal if it is really there.. Trigonal data can be indexed as h,k,l k,h,-k -h,-k,l or -k,-h,-l of course so you have a 75% chance of getting the 2nd crystal on a

Hi all, I will like to know, as a follow up of what Prof. Randy Read said, what should be done to do the refinement against the measured data and not the detwinned F( which refmac outputs in the mtz after twin refinement), during subsequent refinements. And also, I would like to know how to

Garib may have more to say, but the first point would be to always include the original data file as your input MTZ file for any cycle of refinement, whether you're using Refmac in CCP4 or phenix.refine. (In phenix.refine, if you assign the R-free data the first time you do refinement, it will

1) You should use measured data (after scala/aimless/truncate). In general there may not be one to one relationship between observed data and asymmetric unit (e.g. non-merohedral twinning) and it would not be possible to bring input data to output file. Use original data 2) Internally refmac

Dear CCp4ers, A good morning to everyone. Today, I have a structure that I initially refined in space group P6522, 1mol/asu. Scaling stats (scalepack): 2.30-2.26A: Rsym=99.9%; I/sigma 3 2.61-2.55A: Rsym=39.6%, I/sigma 10 50.00-6.13: Rsym=6.4% Some mild anisotropy in the resolution limits is

Hi Wolfram, a few points: - R-factors in twin refinement vs non-twin refinement are not directly comparable: G.N. Murshudov, Appl. Comput. Math., V.10, N.2, 2011, pp.250-261 http://www.science.az/acm/V10,%20N2,%202011,%20pdf/250-261.pdf - did you make sure free-R flags assigned having

I'm worried when you say that you use the initial job's output MTZ. Refmac replaces F with a detwinned F in the output file so you wouldn't be refining against your measured data in the subsequent round. Best wishes Randy Read Randy J. Read On 2 Mar 2012, at 02:00, wtempel
