[ccp4bb] Fixing input anisotropic scale parameters in Refmac5

2021-04-22 Thread Mark Wilson
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to run test refinements in Refmac5 where I can provide anisotropic 
scale parameters, fix them, and then proceed with restrained refinement of 
other model parameters.  I could not find how to do this in the 
documentation-is this possible?

Best regards,
Mark

[ccp4bb] PostDoc Postion for Time-Resolved Serial Synchrotron Crystallography at ESRF ID29

2021-04-22 Thread Daniele de Sanctis
Hi  all,

we are currently looking for a motivated PostDoc researcher to join the
ID29 upgrade team at the ESRF and contribute to develop
novel sample delivery systems and tools for time resolved serial
crystallography experiments.

The new ID29 is currently being upgraded in a new serial time-resolved
crystallography beamline that can fully profit from the ESRF Extremely
Brilliant Source. The beamline will deliver >10^15 ph/s in a submicron beam
size with a wide band pass monochromator and allow for exposure time of a
few microseconds. It is equipped with the latest generation MD3upSSX and a
Jungfrau detector (more information are presented here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop=B1fB9xvouLE).

Applications should be submitted to the ESRF portal
https://esrf.gestmax.eu/1500/1/postdoc-id29/en_US?backlink=search

Re: [ccp4bb] Coot crashes on CentOS 7.9

2021-04-22 Thread Kay Diederichs

Dear Karthik,

your processor came out in 2008, and it seems that Paul Emsley used compiler 
options that require newer capabilities than this processor has, likely in an 
attempt to speed up coot. Wikipedia says that AVX came out in 2011 and AVX2 in 
2013, so your processor supports neither extension.

Do you still get

*** Cannot find the double-buffered visual.
*** Trying single-buffered visual.

?

The way to debug this is to run
glxinfo
in a terminal and to compare the output (it is 1078 lines for my machine ...) with that from a machine where the NVidia graphics works well. The 
start of the output is most important and should agree; this is the output for my machine:


name of display: :0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
server glx version string: 1.4
server glx extensions:
...

Later it talks about the specific card and driver version; this will of course 
differ from yours:
...
Memory info (GL_NVX_gpu_memory_info):
Dedicated video memory: 8192 MB
Total available memory: 8192 MB
Currently available dedicated video memory: 7763 MB
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: Quadro P4000/PCIe/SSE2
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 460.56
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile
OpenGL core profile extensions:
GL_AMD_multi_draw_indirect, GL_AMD_seamless_cubemap_per_texture,
...

The ElRepo NVidia driver has worked well for us, but the driver directly from 
NVidia should also be fine - but needs manual work after updating the kernel 
IIRC.

Best wishes,
Kay

[ccp4bb] PhD position in structural biology of RNA viruses

2021-04-22 Thread moshe dessau
Dear CCP4 community,
We are looking for enthusiastic team members that want to pursue their PhD in 
the field of structural biology of RNA viruses. Our main interest is the 
mechanism of various processes in RNA viruses infection cycle. Understanding 
virus infection on the molecular and atomic level is fundamental for 
strategizing new counter measures against these viruses. In the lab we are 
using X-ray crystallography, cryoEM, biophysics, biochemistry, cell biology and 
molecular biology methods to understand viruses entry to their host cell, 
membrane fusion, assembly, evasion and more.
If you are passionate about high resolution mechanistic understanding, you 
belong with us!
Our state-of-the-art lab and facilities (Part of the new Azrieli’s Faculty of 
Medicine, Bar Ilan University) are located in the beautiful northern district 
of Israel (the Galilee).
To apply for a position please send an E-mail to:

2021-04-22 Thread Claudia Alén Amaro
Dear All

Instruct-ERIC is a European Research Infrastructure, providing researchers with 
access to high-end structural biology technologies and expertise, as well as 
enabling access to this equipment and expertise through an infrastructure 
distributed throughout Europe, with 15 members across the continent.



Structural Biology is currently in the middle of a revolution enabled by 
significant technology advances in recent years (direct electron detectors in 
EM, advances in synchrotron sources and detectors, XFELs, ultra-high field NMR, 
super-resolution cryo-light microscopy etc). For this reason, Instruct-ERIC is 
reviewing the structural biology capabilities within Europe to individuate 
possible updates in order to fully respond to the needs of the structural 
biology community.



It is thus important for us to have your feedback to support this activity: 
please fill in this short survey, and 
circulate it to your structural biology colleagues.

[ccp4bb] Coot crashes on CentOS 7.9

2021-04-22 Thread Karthikeyan Subramanian

Dear CCP4 members,

I am trying to install the 
coot-Linux-x86_64-scientific-linux-7.6-gtk2-python on CentOS 7.9 with 
Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 graphics card.


Coot crashes soon after launching the window.  The log file is shown 
below. Not sure what is missing. The only error I can see is


*./coot: line 264:  5365 Illegal instruction (core dumped) $coot_bin 
"$@"".

*

The older version of coot (0.8.9.2) is working fine on the same machine.

Thanks for the help.

With regards

Karthik

IMTECH, Chandigarh
