Re: [ccp4bb] exclude NCS regions in phenix.refine

Hi Bert, - define NCS selections in your input parameters file ncs.txt (just copy-paste-edit whatever is defined automatically, for example); - do not forget to use main.ncs=true; - turn off automatic NCS detection: ncs.find_automatically=false. Example: phenix.refine model.pdb data.mtz

Eric Staurosporine is a standard ligand in the Monomer library in PHENIX and will work directly with phenix.refine. I should mention that if you have the atom names different from the monomer library phenix.ready_set model_including_stau.pdb will run eLBOW on the ligands in the model

Hi Eric: You could try generating a SMILES string for your compound using this: http://www.molinspiration.com/cgi-bin/properties (or search to see if one is available) and feed that into elbow, eg: elbow.builder -- smiles = CC12C

[ccp4bb] shape complementarity calculations

Colleagues, Would some one kindly suggest software that calculates shape complementarity of two interacting proteins based on co-crystal structure? I've seen number of reports with sc parameter included but none of those mention how it was done. Among non-runnable programs in CCP4 there is the sc

But beware of chiral centres. You need the isomeric SMILES - otherwise you may take your chances on what is generated. If in doubt see wikipedia for ref to staurosporine structure determination. HTH J --- Judith Murray-Rust Structural Biology Lab Cancer Research UK

Actually sc is part of the ccp4 package. (more $CDOC/sc.doc) The reference describing the procedure is: 1. Michael C. Lawrence and Peter M. Colman J. Mol. Biol., 234, p946 - p950 (1993) As you say, it calculates shape complimentarity of the surfaces as they are docked in the
