NBRF/PIR Format: A sequence in PIR format consists of: 1. One line starting with 1. a ** (greater-than) sign, followed by 2. a two-letter code describing the sequence type (P1, F1, DL, DC, RL, RC, or XX), followed by 3. a semicolon, followed by 4. the sequence

Thanks Suku - forgot about the P1, F1 stuff. Still don't understand why you just can't use the simpler FASTA format with all these programs, or even just a plain text file! Tony. Sent from my iPhone On 12 Aug 2011, at 10:18, sukanta mondal

Dear Phil, I remember one case where reading a sequence file in PIR format failed, although I did my best to have the right format. It turned out, that the error message about the wrong PIR format was misleading - the real cause was a non-standard amino acid letter, in this case a X. Maybe,

beta sheets in really well-phased low-resolution maps should look sort of like walls, but in an imperfect map they might by rather spotty. I'd be very leary of making any conclusions from molecular replacement at such low resolution. For a good control, try solving your data set with a

Hi, what is the completeness of the datasets across the whole resolution range (not overall - single number). At these resolutions missing a few reflections may be enough to hide quite a bit of structure. Pavel. On Fri, Aug 12, 2011 at 10:32 AM, Huiming Li huimin...@hotmail.com wrote: Dear
