[ccp4bb] bug in Arp/wArp solvent?

2014-01-31 Thread ulrich.goh...@mdc-berlin.de
Dear Arp/wArp developers,

 there seems to be a bug in the latest version of Arp/wArp Solvent (7.4 patch 
1) shipped with ccp4 v 6.4.0: despite ticking the box For REFMAC 5 refinement 
do USE the Free R flag, the log file shows the message FreeR will not be 
used (and it clearly doesn't).

Or am I missing something here?

Cheers,

 Uli

Dear Uli,

thanks for letting us know - this is a bug that just happens in the CCP4i 
interface.
If you use the command line, everything works fine. Here is an example how to 
use arp-solvent on the command line:

# auto_solvent.sh datafile xxx.mtz protein xxx_start.pdb freelabin FREE

We also just fixed the bug in the CCP4i interface, this will either come to you 
via the CCP4i updater or a near-future ARP/wARP patch ;)


Cheers,
Tim

[ccp4bb] Ten days left, many seats available: Apply for RapiData 2014, a course on Data Collection and Structure Solving at the NSLS.

2014-01-31 Thread Robert Sweet

We are offering RapiData 2014, the sixteenth offering of our popular course:

   Rapid Data Collection and Structure Solving at the NSLS: A Practical
  Course in Macromolecular X-Ray Diffraction Measurement

The course will be held 27 April - 2 May 2014: http://www.bnl.gov/RapiData/. 
Students could be at any level from advanced undergraduate to full professor. 
The course should accommodate 48 students total.  We encourage all students to 
bring their own specimens for data collection, and to bring old data for the 
data-reduction and structure-solving tutorials.


Please read the Course Announcement at http://www.bnl.gov/RapiData/. You'll see 
that many experts in the field will be available for lectures and tutorials. In 
addition to MX there will be opportunity for learning about correlated MX and 
spectroscopy, and SAXS.  You'll find the application materials on the Course 
Application tab at this site.


For the twelfth time we will hold a short lecture course on the fundamentals of 
crystallography for roughly five hours on Sunday 27 April. The body of the 
RapiData course really requires that students have a healthy knowledge of 
crystallography.  For potential students who have some experience but are shaky 
about fundamentals, this course will help. There will be an additional fee for 
the fundamentals course, to pay for Saturday night accomodations and food on 
Sunday morning and noon.


Latin American Scientists: Several scholarships are available, from the 
International Union of Crystallography, to pay partial travel and subsistence 
costs for Latin-American students and junior faculty (no more than 30 yrs). 
Please apply for the course, and then contact R. Sweet (sw...@bnl.gov) if you 
are interested in applying for a scholarship.


In accordance with the standards of the International Union of
Crystallography, we observe the basic policy of non-discrimination,
affirming the right and freedom of scientists to associate in
international scientific activity without regard to such factors as
citizenship, religion, creed, political stance, ethnic origin, race,
colour, language, age, or gender, in accordance with the Statutes of the
International Council for Science.  At this course no barriers will exist
beyond the application procedure that would prevent the participation of
bona fide scientists.

Please apply yourself, or send your students to our course,

Bob Sweet, Sonya Kiss, and Alex Soares

[ccp4bb] MS analysis of frozen crystals after X-ray exposure

2014-01-31 Thread roman rohac

Hi ccp4bb,
I would like to perform an MS analysis of the protein crystals after 
X-ray exposure. I'm interested in the characterization of the 
modifications on the cofactor (expected mass cca 400Da). I will need to 
wash the crystals before MS because they contain glycerol, long chain 
PEG and detergent. I'm trying to find a way how to wash these molecules 
out without losing the cofactor or breaking the crystal. As I don't have 
many crystals, I was wondering if some of you have tried such analysis 
and/or washing..

any advice would be greatly appreciated

[ccp4bb] resubmission of pdb

2014-01-31 Thread Faisal Tarique
Dear all

Dear Dr. PDB,

Some time back i had submitted a coordinate in PDB but because of
unacceptance of the manuscript we had to retract the submission. During
this procedure i got few zipped file from the annotator such as 1.
rcsb0.cif-public.gz,  2. rcsb0.pdb.gz and  3.
rcsb0-sf.cif.gz..Now i want to submit the same ..My question is what is
the best way to do it again..??
Should we start  from the beginning through ADIT Deposition tool and
resubmit it with a new PDB id or there is some way to submit again those
zip files which the annotator sent us after retraction..May you please
suggest what could be the easiest way to submit our structure to PDB
without much efforts.

Re: [ccp4bb] resubmission of pdb

2014-01-31 Thread Dale Tronrud
   I would write back to the annotator who send the processed files
to you and ask if you can restart the deposition.  The worst they
can say is no and you're back to ADIT.  On the other hand they
will probably be as happy as you to save the work that has already
been done.

[ccp4bb] MSA with starting amino acid numbers

2014-01-31 Thread Dilip Badjugar
Dear users,


I know one server for having the secondary structure over MSA i.e. Espript.
But I want to incorporate the staring amino acid for protein. I could not
find this option in the tutorial. Is it the post editing is the only way to
add the amino acid numbers or there are other server which allow me to do
so?


Thanking you in advance.

DCB
