Re: [ccp4bb] how to model glycosylated residues?

Hi Jiamu, You can use Sketcher to make the library for Coot. You'd better to get the PDB file from http://www.dkfz.de/spec/glycosciences.de/tools/pdbcare/ . Good luck! liu Jiamu Du wrote: Thanks for all the replies above. I have pasted the figure of the electrondensity map in the attachment.

Re: [ccp4bb] How to refine large moleculars?

2008-01-08 Thread junfeng liu
Have you tried TLS and NCS? Maybe these can lower the R free a little. But ,the quality of your model depends on the quality of your data and completeness of your model etc. Yongchao Li wrote: I have a large molecule to refine.There are about three thousand residues in one asymmetric unit.

[ccp4bb] REFMAC 5.4.0034

2008-01-08 Thread Mark A Saper
I keep finding that the Refmac version from 5.4.0034 is more stable at least with full anisotropic refinement at 1.35 Å resolution. The R- factor stays relatively similar and there is a slow decrease of R- free with R-work. It doesn't jump around compared with an identical refinement in

[ccp4bb] Any programs other than GRASP have a surface scribing function?

2008-01-08 Thread James Thompson
Dear CCP4'ers, Any Windows/Linux/OS X programs have a surface scribing function similar to that found in GRASP, to quickly draw the border of a surface selection (or subset) and calculate or display local features of the molecular surface? I have no access to SGIs now. I have a memory

I have used CCP4MG to produce a molecular surface of the model that i have been working on. There is an example in the online documentation to produce a molecular surface for the entire molecule or for a subset of atoms, and color it by solvent accessibility or other properties. It produces

Re: [ccp4bb] DNA contamination post-Talon?

2008-01-08 Thread Antony Oliver
DNA carry-through in protein purification is quite common, especially if you are working with basic proteins. A Talon step certainly doesn't guarantee the removal of nucleic acid, and large fragments will certainly run in the void volume of your gel-filtration column. You can try washing the

Just to add to that, on OS X, if you install the apbs and pymol packages via fink, everything will be set up for you. I think this is also true of at least Ubuntu and other debian linux varieties. As far as I am aware, the plugin is not compatible with the non-X-windows PyMOL on OS X. On Tue,
