i have a basic question regarding SPR experiment and that is: What is the
recommended glycerol concentration in the protein sample for doing SPR
experiment and getting the best possible result.? i have kept 10% Glycerol
in my protein preparation..is it O.K ?

 It is most likely to be something in your crystallisation condition, your
 cryoprotectant, or the buffer you stored your protein in.
 Could be a detergent carried through several steps of purification
 Could for example be some part of a PEG molecule that gets ordered round a
 more hydrophobic bit of your protein surface.
 You need to think about everything your protein has come into contact
 with, possibly even inside the cell.  It is not uncommon to carry cofactors
 right through a purification, less likely in something more surface bound
 like this.

 Matt,

 with this technique, how do you prevent crystal from drying up (other
 than doing it fast)?  I know Thorne's group does this trick under oil.
 If you take no extra precautions, do you have an estimate of how often
 diffraction is destroyed by this?

 On the other hand, it's quite possible that what destroys resolution
 when crystals dry up is increase in concentration of non-volatile mother
 liquor components, which shouldn't be happening here to the same degree.

 Hi Faisal,
 if your solvent channels are smaller than 40A in the largest dimension
 (most are) you can use a mesh loop to pick up the crystal and then wick
 away all of the mother liquor. You can then flash cool your crystal
 without having to transfer the crystal to another solution. Good luck,

 Dear Faisal,

 I might be missing something, but why not ask the annotator instead of the
 bulletin board? He should know which value is meant. For me, a sigma
 belongs to a set of observations or parameters and without any further
 information one can only guess (as Ed just did) which set. My guess would
 be, that instead of structure file, structure factor file was meant and
 that somehow a negative sigma slipped in for one of the structure factors,
 but again that is just guessing.

 My two cents,
 Herman

 That is just my point - a structure submitted and then validated for paper
 reviewers by the PDB can be changed almost completely after the paper is
 accepted.
 The data can be changed too and only stipulation seems to be that it cannot
 be new data i.e. it has to have a date of collection _before_ submission.

 Changes are of course not bad in principle - they may be motivated by peer
 review.

 But they need to be tracked. ln a way that is understandable for users of
 the data. Perhaps they are available in the new mmCif-based deposition and
 annotation system. I have not used it yet.

 The PDB provides a comparison between obsoleted and superseding entries
 (coordinates at least). So a similar approach could be used.

 all the best

 Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] resubmission of pdb


 Hi Martyn,

 I have recently had the same problem. But generally, the PDB will usually
 allow a further 6 months hold for review or modifications to an already
 submitted paper.
 That is good to hear. I guess the 1 year limit is mostly to avoid structures
 to stay in limbo too long.

 But what I wanted to say was that the correct term is 'withdrawal' if the
 entry
 is removed pre-release - 'retraction' carries a pejorative connotation.
 Even
 after release, pulling an entry would be called obsoleting (status OBS)
 without superseding. So some structures have been 'obsoleted' owing to
 retraction of a published paper. (Superseding is when a better structure
 replaces the original - this process is tracked by the PDB.)
 Indeed, bad choice of words on my side. Just to complete the list, the
 possible statuses are here: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe-srv/status/search/doc

 Most pre-release 'withdrawn' entries are of course subsequently released
 after re-submission. But the PDB does not seem to track these connections
 -
 although they maintain a list of withdrawn entries - which means ids
 cannot
 really be recycled.
 That's too bad, there are not that many possible PDBids.

 Interestingly, before release entries can be 'replaced' which means a new
 structure can take the place (and 4 letter code) of the old one - this
 would
 have to have the same meta-data - so source and expression - but could
 have different resolution, space group, coordinates, and small molecules.
 Changes in these could for example be motivated by referees' comments on
 the submitted paper or maybe the authors got lucky with a better crystal.
 But
 this pre-release replacement could also be potentially used to 'sex up' a
 structure - for example by adding a 'novel' small molecule 'overlooked' in
 the
 original deposition. Such changes are tracked privately by the PDB but are
 not
 publically available... even after release.
 I didn't know this was an option. It seems sensible for peer review, but
 does present a potential loop-hole. I saw a fairly recent PDB entry that was
 deposited as a C-alpha trace (in 2013), but presented as a full model in
 Table 2 of the linked publication. The model was deposited a month before
 the paper was accepted, so referees could have noticed this (in theory). But
 now I wonder I the model was not 'downgraded' before the release. Perhaps
 I'm just paranoid.

 Cheers,
 Robbie

 Even more interestingly, the ligand definitions such as bond orders can be
 modified _after_ release (as in the recent R12 case I noticed*)... I think
 this is
 owing to the lack of clear rules on small molecule changes - which means
 the
 PDB should be considered of limited value as a definitive record of small
 molecule chemistry.

 Cheers - M

 Perhaps because of the one year limit of keeping PDB entries in the 'HPUB'

 So when a PDB entry is retracted before release, is the PDBid recycled

  Hi Faisal -

 These numbers can be found near the bottom of the Scalepack log file.  In
 HKL2000, this has a default name of scale.log but you can rename it to
 anything you want in the Scaling window of HKL2000.

 You will find a table that looks like this:

   All dataLinear
Batch # obs # obs  1   I/sigma N. Chi**2R-fac
1   873   873 5.7 2.0520.184

3  1499  1499 6.0 1.5820.147
 . . . . .
  All films 1072444   1072075 6.0 1.4280.157


 The number 1072444 represents the total number of observations in this
 data set.  Directly below this table is one titled Summary of observation
 redundancies by shells.  The bottom line of that table looks like this:

  All hkl253   369   438   502   626  1647  2351  8257 24834 22607
 61631

 The number 61631 is the number of unique observations.  Divide 1072444 by
 61631 and you get 17.4, the overall redundancy for this dataset.  (I was
 trying to use high redundancy to squeeze a bit more resolution out of a
 weakly diffracting crystal.)  In recent versions of HKL, the redundancy
 values are printed in a table as well.

 Hope that helps,

 Matt

Calcium..An anomalous data analyzed through Xtriage (phenix) gives a signal
of 0.097 with Magnesium while the same gives a signal of 0.1062 with
Caclium ( both data sets showing Anomalous flag as true )..can anybody shed

and i had kept Mg atom at the active site (  protein was incubated with 5mM
MgCl2)..just because it is not matching a typical octahedral geometry and
exact metal ion-oxygen distance as represented by Cambridge structural
database (CSD) my reviewer has asked me to check anomalous signal for both
Mg and Ca and ( he is expecting that scattering metal ion it to be Ca )
give appropriate reason for putting Mg there..please give suggestions..

[ccp4bb] anomalous signal

2014-04-25 Thread Faisal Tarique
Dear all

sorry about my previous mail where i forgot to mention that the data was
collected on home source at Cuk alpha and at 1.54A.

written below is the log file of an anomalous data processed through
SHELXC..my question is ..what is the strength of anomalous signal ?? as it
is said For zero signal d'/sig and d/sig should be about 0.80. Then
in the present case is there really a signal or can be assumed no
signal..we are expecting one Ca atom bound to the protein at its active
site..the redundancy of the data is 11.6..with this signal strength can we
assume Ca to be present there or whatever little anomalous if present is
due to something elseor there is no signal at all ??...

Resl.   Inf - 8.0 - 6.0 - 5.0 - 4.0 - 3.8 - 3.6 - 3.4 - 3.2 - 3.0 - 2.8 -

[ccp4bb] anomalous signal

2014-04-30 Thread Faisal Tarique
Dear all

I am working on a metalloprotein which probably contains Ca at its active
site..The sulfur containing amino acid constitutes almost 5.4% of the total
amino acid residues of this protein..I have collected the data at home
source (CuKalpha=1.54A)..Since f'' of Sulfur is 0.56 and that of Ca is 1.28
we can always expect some  anomalous signal out of the data..My question is
..how we will know if the anomalous signal is coming out of Sulfur or from
Calcium ?? is there any method through which we can get to know the
identity of the scattering molecule through the data..Can FFT anomalous map
from CCP4 is of any help in this direction, if yes then please tell me how
to interpret the output from this..

[ccp4bb] ideal rms bond and rms angle

2014-06-04 Thread Faisal Tarique
Dear all

I request you to please tell me the ideal rms bond and rms angle for a
perfectly refined structure..As we can see in order to have optimum R
and Rfree we often adjust the weighing factor in Refmac so as the R
and Rfree changes it brings changes in rms bond and rms angle as
well..Does the quality of a structure depends upon the value of these
rms deviation ? And what is the ideal value for these ?

 You don't need a CIF file for elements or their ions, only for

Re: [ccp4bb] determination of oligomerization state of protein

2012-08-14 Thread Faisal Tarique
Hi

you can also try dynamic light scattering of different fraction of the
peak.it will help you  to know the exact molecular size of individual
peak..glutaraldehyde crosslinking is also a good option..increasing the
concentration of protein may shift the equilibrium in the direction of
higher molecular weight polymeric state of that protein as it has worked in
one of my case..try some additive like arginine  glutamate while
concentrating your protein and before SEC..it works sometime..

 Dear ,

 I am not up to date, but is there an expression system that allows you
 to incorporate D-amino acids into proteins? In terms of phasing only
 the Se-atom is a point or sphere, so the signal won't be altered
 provided the position of that atom is the same in either case.

Hello everyone

sorry for the intervention with some basic questions regarding twinning

In continuation with the discussion with Liang i would like to ask a
question which i faced..i have also solved a structure and the statistics
depending on twin laws as described through xtriage, phenix is as follows:

operator k,h,-l
type pseudomerohedral
brotton alpha 0.019
h alpha 0.023
m alpha 0.22

it seems the probable twin fraction in my case is 0.2, now the question is
does it mean that in another twin domain ie. twin operator h,k,l the twin
fraction will be 0.8 ?

  Hello,

 I would suggest to use several tools (in addition to Phenix's) - CCP4's
 detwin, the plots generated by truncate before detwinning, the Yeates
 twinning server and there might be others - to get a good idea of what the
 twinning fraction is.

 Here we've had success using CCP4's detwin to detwin diffraction data.
 The resulting mtz file is not equivalent to an mtz file containing data
 recorded from an untwinned crystal - this detwinning operation is not a
 perfectly accurate operation... In our case we used the estimate of the
 twinning fraction obtained from Phenix (which was lower).

 HTH,

 Hi Tom,

 Adding glycerol to (crystallization) buffers is a very common practice when
 working with membrane proteins. Many membrane proteins have been
 crystallized (perhaps even the majority) with glycerol, even up to 30% v/v.
 So, at least for membrane proteins, there is no problem.

 general observations on this. I was of the opinion that this was usually a
 bad thing to do with protein stock that you intend to cyrstallize because
 glycerol will coat the protein in a non-homogeneous manner and make your

 good luck crystallizing proteins that have to be stored in some glycerol? Or
 is there a better additive? Also, when having to use glycerol, do you put it

hello everybody

how does arginine and glutamate affect crystallization..what will be
the better stabilizing agent during protein purification which wont
affect crystallization or have minimal affect on
crystallization..example..glycerol, sorbitol, glycine, poline,
arginine, glutamate..what should be opted first.

 Hi Tom--

 We have had good luck crystallizing proteins with 5-10% glycerol.  In the
 majority of these cases, the glycerol was included in the buffer for the
 final purification step.  We have also seen several cases where
 1,2-propanediol worked much better than glycerol.

 Hope this helps!

[ccp4bb] Difference between different b factors values

2014-08-14 Thread Faisal Tarique
Dear all

I request you to please tell me the difference between wilson B-factor and
average B, all atoms ?? I have two structures one native at 2A resolution,
having mean b factor of 24 and the other a complex structure of the same
protein with a ligand (at 2.6A resolution) has mean b factor of 23..Why
there is a difference in the b factor for these two coordinates with the
later having (low resolution) lower value than the previous (high
resolution)..?? is this a normal phenomenon or the stability is due to
bound ligand molecule, which is stabilizing the whole structure ?? Please
pour some light in this direction..

  Same here.  Ultimately, the KD test must be used in the end to finalize
 the resolution (keeping in mind recently discussed issues of effective
 resolution given data completeness).  I just want to add that at least some
 versions of aimless report overestimated resolution based on CC1/2 cutoff
 when outliers are present (e.g. due to ice rings or salt diffraction). It
 seems that aimless just picks the highest resolution bin where cc1/2 0.5
 even if some lower resolution bins are below 0.5 as well. I have written a
 script for more robust automated evaluation of these curves.  In a
 nutshell, it fits CC1/2 (d) curve to 1/(1+exp (-x)) and returns the
 resolution at midpoint.  I'm pretty sure that theoretical CC1/2 (d)
 dependence is different from this, but it seems good enough for a rough
 estimate.

CC-half standard is valuable in evaluating the cut-off of highest

 as high, if CC-half is still significant, it may be worth incorporate the
 extra high-res shell data and extend the resolution. Again, if only the
 reliability and unbias are carefully confirmed, and the apparent
 significant CC-half is not due to an artifact of some other factors like
 ice ring etc.

much higher rate than CMP Cytosine-5'-monophosphate (40 fold difference).
Since the structure of TMP and CMP are very similar what could be the
possible explanation for this difference or how one should approach to
explain this difference..Can modelling, docking and energy minimization

[ccp4bb] ILLUSTRATE in PYMOL

2023-08-15 Thread khaja faisal tarique
Hi everyone

Is there any way to make surface representation of a protein structure
similar to the 'Illustrate: Non-photorealistic Biomolecular Illustration' (
https://ccsb.scripps.edu/illustrate/) using scripts in Pymol ? It will be
really helpful if someone can share this with me.

Thanks

Faisal
