[ccp4bb] sigma value in structure file

Dear all During PDB deposition the annotator me to verify and review the sigma value in the structure file which in my case was -0.03. I have some basic queries and request you all to please answer them. My first question is, what actually is a sigma value of a structure file. 2nd) where the

The only thing that seems to make sense is bonds rmsd - but you should ask the annotator for specifics directly. If it is bonds rmsd, this has been discussed many times - just google rmsd bonds ccp4bb and look for most recent entries. On Mon, 2013-06-17 at 12:11 +0530, Faisal Tarique wrote:

2013-06-17 Thread Herman . Schreuder
Dear Faisal, I might be missing something, but why not ask the annotator instead of the bulletin board? He should know which value is meant. For me, a sigma belongs to a set of observations or parameters and without any further information one can only guess (as Ed just did) which set. My

At the risk of (more) people pointing at me and laughing... I used to use SHELXPRO to get my .ins files sorted for SHELX, but that seems to have gone. How is it done now? I want to do a full-matrix refinement to get ESUs on some (specific) atoms and as far as I can remember SHELXL is the best

Dear group I have a crystal data diffracted around 2.9 A*, during the data reduction HKL2000 not convincingly showed the space group (indexed in lower symmetry p1), while the mosflm given C-centered Orthorhombic, and again with little play around HKL2000 given CO, now the model for molecular

Hi Pramod, 1. You should try to identify the correct space group first. Did you integrate in p1 and run pointless? 2. A template with 31% identity is not a great model. The number of molecules in ASU will affect your chances of success. Hopefully it's not large. wrfac of 0.6 and Rfree of 0.5

[ccp4bb] ctruncate bug?

2013-06-17 Thread Ed Pozharski
I noticed something strange when processing a dataset with imosflm. The final output ctruncate_etc.mtz, contains IMEAN and F columns, which should be the conversion according to FrenchWilson. Problem is that IMEAN has no missing values (100% complete) while F has about 1500 missing (~97%

Hi Ed, I'm not directly familiar with the ctruncate implementation of French and Wilson, but from the implementation that I put into Phenix (based on the original FW paper) I can tell you that any reflection where (I/sigI) - (sigI/mean_intensity) is less than a defined cutoff (in our case -4.0),

Jeff, thanks - I can see the same equation and cutoff applied in ctruncate source.Here is the relevant part of the code // Bayesian statistics tells us to modify I/sigma by subtracting off sigma/S // where S is the mean intensity in the resolution shell h =
