[ccp4bb] Ample, shelxe-beta and F to I conversion confusion

2013-01-28 Thread Huw Jenkins
Hi, I've been running Ample and I'm a bit confused about the input for the shelxe-beta auto-tracing. The input mtz for Ample has F, SIGF and FreeR and it appears that Ample converts the structure factor amplitudes to intensities using mtz2various with the FSQUARED keyword as the log file

Dear Huw, It looks as though you have correctly diagnosed a problem with AMPLE. For expansion from borderline partial structures, I recommend the latest SHELXE (on my beta-test server since Jan. 20th) and experimenting with the -O and -F switches, e.g. -F0.9 -O100 -a30 However SHELXE is

Hi Huw, Well spotted! We originally gave structure factors to SHELXE in our testing as for most of our test cases we only had F/SIGF available. We were advised to change to intensities but somehow in the released version the -f flag remained. I'll make the change and put it in a CCP4 update.

Correct, shelxe does not use the free -R flags, and works just as well with the original unmerged unctruncated intensities. George Hi Ronan, On 28 Jan 2013, at 12:18, ronan.kee...@stfc.ac.uk wrote: Well spotted! We originally gave structure factors to SHELXE in our testing as for most of

Hi Nat, DSSP recently went open source with a very liberal license. So you can consider using the real DSSP now. This may also be the moment to integrate DSSP in CCP4. Cheers, Robbie Sent from my Windows Phone From: Nat Echols Sent: 2013-01-28 17:32 To:
