[COOT] Problem with Extension- Phosphorylate this Residue

2010-06-03 Thread Emiliano Sanchez
Hello all, this is my first post and I apologize if there is redundancy, but 
from previous searches of the archives on this board, I did not find an issue 
similar to mine.
I am attempting to phosphorylate a threonine residue, however, I get this 
error: 

monomer-molecule-from-3-let-code TPO )
/usr/local/src/Coot/bin/libcheck
/usr/local/src/Coot/bin/libcheck

ERROR: cant open (lib) list/mon_lib_list
exit status: 0
INFO:: libcheck status: 0
libcheck failed to write the output cif file.
(get-monomer TPO)

The full log is in the attached part.  I therefore tried to circumvent this by 
loading in a clean TPO.cif and TPO.pdb and manually deleting the threonine and 
renaming / renumbering / merging into the original PDB.  When I do a subsequent 
refinement, I want to edit the sidechain angles, the selection window for 
choosing which bond angles to modify, there are no applicable selections.  

I appreciate any feedback the community has to offer and thank you for your time

Re: [COOT] To mutate non-standard nucleic acids

2010-06-03 Thread Paul Emsley
Briefly, this is not the way that Coot wants you to do it.

Coot wants you to Replace Residue (under modelling).  Make sure that your 
restraints for the modified residue have the group DNA (or RNA), not monomer.

Subject: To mutate non-standard nucleic acids

We are working on modified nucleic acids. Using a pdb file of a modified 
nucleic acid, I want to cut and change the positions of the residues in  the 
nucleic acid chain.
I tried it with calculate-- model/fit/refine--rotate/translate zone, although 
we cut and place it at the correct distance no bond is forming. Is there any 
way i can do this?
