Re: [ccp4bb] SP Sep HP tight binding of proteins

Hi Meg, I think with your pi you may also test a Q-Sepharose at neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Maybe your protein is more comfortable with this condition compared to a pH of 4.5. As mentioned befor your protein is most likely precipitated on the column. Best regards Christian Am

Dear all experts, Just a simple question, how can I obtain a monomer library CIF (_lib.cif) of a new small molecule that could be recognized by Refmac5? If i have a CCDC cif file. many thanks stephen -- Dr. Stephen Sin-Yin Chui (徐先賢) Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, The

Dear Stephen, First you change cife file to pdb file of your structure using CCDC mercury program. It's freely available in the CCDC site. Then use CCP4 Sketcher program to create the monomer library file with the pdb file of your structure. Wishes, Sampath N 2011/1/5 Dr. STEPHEN SIN-YIN,

Dear Stephen, a cif from CCDC is something totally different from a refmac CIF. You need to convert to PDB (you can also use MOE software if available). When you have built in your small molecule PDB into your whole model you just run refmac. Refmac will fail but write out a suggestion for a
