And as a footnote*
-
* I notice that, following discussion on this bulletin board, the space group 
of the 2wlv coordinate file has been updated.

 But at this point did it not occur to the PDB to change the space group in the 
structure factor file as well? So the coordinates indicate P21 21 2 but the 
structure factor file still says P21 21 21... Hmm consistency is highly 
over-rated...

Also the author's SF data listing starts with c axis reflections including 0, 
0, l odd as well as even, which is sort of a hint here

Just as a postscript.

It has been pointed out to me that the space group was correct in the uploaded 
PDB and in the mtz reflection file. And there was no editing of this data 
pre-deposition. 

I am sort of surprised how quickly people are to beat up on the authors in such 
cases since we do not have access to the full data and facts.

Having the uploaded data available would allow better checking. I'm mainly

Hi Robbie,

what I don't get is why one needs to type in this information if it is
already present in both, model and data files? Any human typing is typo
prone. Ideally depositor would need to provide only information that is not
genuinely available in data and model files that are being deposited.


Checking back to see the space group misparsed and re-running the water

If original data and/or model files were not hand edited then there would

 Waters are moved during annotation using the perceived space group's
 symmetry operation. So if the authors give the wrong space group, then the
 annotation pipeline understandably messes things up. If the originally
 uploaded PDB file was kept by PDBe, then the problem can be recovered
 quite
 easily by the annotators. Perhaps the topic starter, Michel Fodje, can
send
 a bug report to PDBe. In my experience, the annotators are very helpful
 resolving these matters.

 Hoping that the depositors solve the problem by themselves, is probably in
 vain: There are many crystallographers who do not read the CCP4BB (which
is
 a shame, really); they didn't notice the enormous amount of water related
 bumps in their final model (which is in the validation report you get
after
 deposition and in REMARK 500 of the PDB file you have to approve); they
 also
 didn't notice the huge number of symmetry-related bumps; the R-factors in
 the PDB file are different from (and better than) the ones in Table 1.
Also
 notice that the paper was submitted on April 21st 2009 and the model was
 deposited on June 29th 2009. Paper accepted on July 8th 2009. But I'm sure
 the referees had a chance to properly assess the quality of the structure
 model ;-)

 P.S. It's pretty awesome that the problem was solved in less than 20
minutes
 by the CCP4BB (that is, by Phoebe Rice)

Not only 118, look at 119 . It seems also that residues 82-88 incorrectly

Re: [ccp4bb] Puzzling Structure

2013-04-12 Thread Pavel Afonine
This explains why I cannot reproduce published R-factors (with files from
PDB I get ~40%). If I force my favorite refinement program to use P21212
then I get R close to reported in PDB file header.
This makes it worth reminding that it's rarely a good idea to edit PDB file
out of refinement.
