Re: [ccp4bb] Which Coot for Scientific Linux 6.3

2012-09-21 Thread Kay Diederichs
Hi Fred,

on today's PC hardware, a 64bit Linux should be used.

We have been using 
coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-3965-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-5-python-gtk2  on our 
64bit SL 6.3 systems without problems. 
I just now installed 
coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-4360-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-6-python-gtk2 on these 
systems and it seems to run well.

Is there an error message if you try that?

HTH,

Kay

Hi all,

Well I did it the hard way, i.e. try all versions until I came across
one version of Coot that runs.

In my hands I did not get a single version to run on SL6.3, 64-bit
version (Dirk Kostrewa had another experience with SL6.3 64 though).

So I installed SL6.3, 32-bit version, and the version of Coot for Fedora
core 12 runs and provides me with a proper graphics windows.

I thought I'd keep the bb informed.

 Dear colleagues,
 
 Is there any program can rotate a density map (generated by FFT, could be

 Extension-Maps- Transform map by LSQ model fit, it looks doesnot work.
 While the program Edit/Rotate map  Mask in CCP4 gave an error message:

Dear Rex,

CNS uses input files, which are listed e.g. at
http://cns.csb.yale.edu/v1.2/

When I used CNS I always had to use 'generate.inp' so i would start
search for this. However, they can be freely renamed, I am afraid.

Good luck,

Add another extension to your search: *.mtf

If your structure was refined with CNS, chances are you'll find its
Molecular Topology File somewhere.

Re: [ccp4bb] Off Topic: help locating CNS data

2012-09-21 Thread Edwin Pozharski
If you are looking for reflection files, the tricky part is that in CNS 
format they did not include the unit cell parameters.  Just to locate 
them, it may be helpful to know that they contain a header that looks 
like this


NREFlection= 49238
ANOMalous=FALSe { equiv. to HERMitian=TRUE}
DECLare NAME=FOBS   DOMAin=RECIprocal   TYPE=REAL END
DECLare NAME=SIGMA  DOMAin=RECIprocal   TYPE=REAL END
DECLare NAME=TEST   DOMAin=RECIprocal   TYPE=INTE END

so if you are in *nix environment something like this

egrep -rl '^[ ]DECLare NAME.*DOMAin=RECIprocal' .

I am sure perl masters will laugh at my awkward attempts at using 
regular expressions.


Cheers,

Ed.

[ccp4bb] CCP4 update

2012-09-21 Thread David Waterman
Dear CCP4 Users,

A CCP4 update has just been released, consisting of the following changes.

For Linux and Mac:

   - *areaimol*: fixed segmentation fault due to a bug in dynamic memory
   allocation
   - *cprodrg*: HETATM notations synchronised with refmac
   - *ccp4i*: fixes in refmac harvesting

In addition to the above, on Windows:

   - *ccp4i*: added kill job functionality

The easiest way to obtain the update is to install the CCP4 update
clienthttp://www.ccp4.ac.uk/download/update_manual.html, if
you have not done so already. Note that autoupdates will work correctly
only with CCP4 release 6.3.0, therefore upgrade if necessary. Report bugs
to c...@stfc.ac.uk.

Many thanks for using CCP4,

[ccp4bb] dmmulti cross-crystal averaging question

2012-09-21 Thread Garboczi, David (NIH/NIAID) [E]
We are working with two crystals.  Both crystals have a domain that 
is not in the other.  Both crystals have one domain that is the same 
in each.  We'd like the average the one domain between the crystals, 
but leave the other domains unaveraged.


How do we describe that to dmmulti?

Re: [ccp4bb] dmmulti cross-crystal averaging question

2012-09-21 Thread Francis E Reyes
The domain common to both crystals constitutes the averaging mask. (you can 
make it around the pdb using ncsmask). 

As for describing it to dmmulti, you need the rotation matrix which maps it 
from crystal 1 to crystal 2. 

The rotation matrix for crystal one is always the identity matrix. You will put 
the matrix mapping the domain from 1 to 2 as the rotation matrix for the second 
crystal. 

You may want to obtain a rotation matrix optimized against your current density 
first before supplying it to dmmulti (the rave utilities will do this for you).

When you get to dmmulti, output the solvent masks and make sure they're 
accurate  (or alternatively you can supply a solvent mask for each crystal 
separately).
