[ccp4bb] MR question

2011-06-22 Thread Careina Edgooms
Dear ccp4 members I have something that surprises me with molecular replacement. I have obtained a solution for a single point mutation using Phaser, the solution seems ok. I do one round of refinement with refmac and I check the structure using molprobity before I even start really to refine

Hi Careina, I can think of two possibilities: - your restraints are not strong enough. - if your mutant dataset is of significantly lower resolution than the native, almost any refinement will make the model worse. If this is your case, just change the mutated residue and very, very obvious

If possible refine restraining to the native structure (I only did this a long time ago with TNT with a script Jan Pieter Abrahams wrote, I don't know if refmac has this possibility). Prosmart generates restraints for use in refmac: http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/mxstat/Rob/index.html It worked

Hi, The R-factor you mention, is it an R-factor before any refinement of the model ? Like an R-factor at the very beginning of the entire modeling procedure, right after molecular replacement ? If this is so: you should always compare such initial R-factors to the R-factors for the atoms

Rex, I think the problem is that the latest version of the dictionary which contains LBT (and many other new ligands) only works with Refmac 5.6 (but check with Garib on that!), but that version hasn't yet been compiled for Windows. Unfortunately Windows versions tend to lag a bit behind Linux

In addition to Fred's suggestion, are you certain about your space group ? I assume you tried phaser with different space groups turned on ? Another thing to look at maybe the model you are using for MR has some extensions that lead to clashes in your crystal packing and therefore the second

In my experience ADIT (or ADIT2) is aware of symmetry mates, and gives a different message for waters related to them- something about these waters will be moved for you if you don't do it yourself. I would go ahead and deposit, and when you are given the final file to OK for release, if it

Dear Petr, I guess ADIT only looks for interaction between water molecules and the protein and does not take into account the interactions between water molecules. So if a water molecule interacts with another water molecule but not with the protein, ADIT will give you these error report even

The two most likely possibilities are: 1. Beam position changed somewhat after the repair and the site file was not updated with the new position. This could result in misindexing of the diffraction pattern with poor positional agreement (Chi2) as a consequence. The diagnosis of misindexing is
