Re: [ccp4bb] intrasubunit rotation axis

2016-11-17 Thread Nicolas FOOS
Hi, not certain to understand the question. In chimera, you can create axis (for example in alpha helix) or directly draw one and do the angle measurement between differents axis. I imagine that you can create the "same axis" in both of your monomer and measure the angle between these axis.

Dear Wei, if you process your data with XDS, the best is probably to do the scaling in XDS (CORRECT) and be done with it. If you want to use Aimless for merging, you can turn off scaling with the ONLYMERGE keyword or use SCALES CONSTANT. All best. Andreas On Thu, Nov 17, 2016 at 9:40 PM,

Hi, Is there a way to let xds_par use less than all processors/threads on the machine? Sometimes I would like to process something else while XDS is running. Another question is related to the scaling procedure. My understanding is that the XDS already does the scaling during correction. So if I

Microbatch under oil in Terasaki plates or perhaps microdialysis might be an option. Then you don’t have a liquid/air interface. It is harder to do very small volumes then, especially with microdialysis. Or free interface diffusion in thin tubes (or with specialised equipment). Mark J van Raaij
