Re: [ccp4bb] Error in assignment of symmetry operators

Hi Radu, This may be caused by the coordinates being too many unit cells away from the origin. In COOT you can easily ‘symmetry move coordinates here’ to a place closer to the origin. Hope this helps, Robbie Sent from my Windows 10 phone Van:

[ccp4bb] Error in assignment of symmetry operators

Dear All, Apologies for posting a Buster-related question to this list, the buster-discuss one seems less active :-) I am trying to run a refinement job, and hit the following problem: ERROR : [run_buster-0046] unable to create initial SCREEN output with gelly - see

[ccp4bb] Coordinated upgrades of the STARANISO server and of autoPROC

Dear all, We are pleased to announce coordinated upgrades to STARANISO for analysis of anisotropy in diffraction data [1] and to autoPROC for data processing and analysis [2]. The consistency between the two programs has been increased, so has the uniformity of output. The final

Re: [ccp4bb] Protein or DNA crystals

This is not at all conclusive, but one depressing thing is that DNA-only crystals are often hexagonal (like yours are). Can you reproduce them without the protein? ++ Phoebe A. Rice Dept. of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology The University of Chicago

Re: [ccp4bb] Protein or DNA crystals

It’s been my experience that protein crystals with that high a percentage of tryptophan residues (>2%) should give a very clearly positive result from a UV microscope such as a Jansi UVEX. Diana ** Diana R. Tomchick Professor Departments of

Re: [ccp4bb] Error in assignment of symmetry operators

Hi Robbie, Pietro, Thank you for the quick replies! I tried this before, but must have messed up things afterwards somehow... Anyway, tried again and now Buster works beautifully. Indeed the molecule was a couple of unit cells away from the origin, as the error message suggests... My fault. Best

Re: [ccp4bb] Error in assignment of symmetry operators

Dear Radu, Nice to know that your problem is sorted and that you are pleased with the results you are getting from BUSTER. Clemens had drafted an answer along exactly the same lines and circulated it around the team for comments, but we were momentarily distracted by something else and

[ccp4bb] Kendrew Symposium, 16-17 Nov 2017, EMBL Heidelberg, Germany

Dear Colleagues, I would like to draw your attention to the 2-day Kendrew Symposium: "Revolutions in Structural Biology: Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Sir John Kendrew" which will take place on 16-17 November 2017 at EMBL Heidelberg. The aim of this event is to celebrate Sir John

Re: [ccp4bb] Error in assignment of symmetry operators

Dear Gerard, Thank you for the answer, absolutely not a problem! I am very grateful for all the great software from Global Phasing and I know that support is great. Enjoying the STARANISO server for example atm. Best wishes, Radu > Dear Radu, > Nice to know that your problem is sorted

Re: [ccp4bb] N-linked glycosylation check

Dear Chris, this is not an answer to your question but may be helpful anyway. I checked your glycan with pdb-care at http://www.glycosciences.de/tools/pdbcare/ and found what I already assumed from looking at the image you had sent: Some of your residues feature a wrong anomer. BMA303B is an
