Thanks Ian - you have spotted the problem! I believe the Clipper routines must write out as a number the info flagged in the syminfo.lib as number 5 for example ( Spacegroup I 1 2 1) and not the info flagged as: symbol ccp4 4005 There are multiple space groups listed with the same number

Re: [ccp4bb] How to sketch a cis double bond (carbon-carbon)

2009-06-15 Thread Liz Potterton
Hi Oliv, I'm sorry, I think you will need to edit the output file from Sketcher _mon_lib.cif - the torsions section ( _chem_comp_tor) will have something like test CONST_1 C1 C2 C3 C4 180.0 0.0 0 the 180 needs changing to 0.0. I think that is all you need to do - no doubt

Re: [ccp4bb] citrate blocks the active site

2009-06-15 Thread Herman . Schreuder
Dear Skkannu, since citrate is (a) necessary for crystal growth and stability and (b) blocks the active site I am afraid you will have to find a completely different crystal form. This means start screening all over again for crystallization conditions of your enzyme in the presence of a

[ccp4bb] refmac 5.5.0092 not writing pdb/mtz files

2009-06-15 Thread Ben Eisenbraun
Howdy, One of our users was trying to re-run some Refmac jobs originally run with version 5.5.0088 under version 5.5.0092, and he noticed that although the logfile shows Refmac completing successfully, the new version is not actually writing the pdb/mtz output files. He is using linux with CCP4

2009-06-15 Thread Oliv Eidam
Hi Liz, Thanks a lot for pointing out the solution: indeed, this seems to be the only angle that needs changing in the _mon_lib.cif file. I tried that earlier and hoped that Coot magically could flip the bond by 180 degrees. This does not work and has to be done by hand, it seems. After that

[ccp4bb] quaternary structure comparison

2009-06-15 Thread Eike - Christian Schulz
Dear All, I solved a structure that has a very common tertiary structure motif but it appears as if the arrangement of the monomers is somewhat Œnon-standart¹. Of course I performed a DALI search, which resulted in a great number of hits due to the similarity of the tertiary structure (Z¹s: 250

[ccp4bb] combining phase information from a Se-Met and Hg SAD data sets

2009-06-15 Thread Arnon Lavie
Hi, we collected SAD data sets to 3.0 A on our protein, once as a Se-Met protein and once soaked with a mercury compound. Data statistics indicate an anomalous signal in both data sets. However, the maps are not great. Is it possible to combine the phase information from the two data sets?
