Does anybody know how to use the server http://checkcif.iucr.org/? I
have downloaded structure factor and structure model cif files of a
structure from PDB. However it looks this server only accept one
single file, it does not work if these two files are uploaded
separately. My question is: do I need to combine these two cif files
into one? How to do that?
One can't help but imagine that that is something of a mismatch
(checkcif, AFAIK, is only to validate (small molecule) structures from
cif files (not the same things as macromolecular (mm)cif/PDBx files)).
So it's somewhat unclear what you want to do. I'm going to imagine that
you want to look at a model and map for a particular accession code from
the PDB.
Perhaps the easiest ways to do that is using the Electron Density Server:

(Presumably you are not using Coot pre-release, if you were you could
you Extensions -> Get From PDBe)
