[ccp4bb] Autodock Vina output files

2013-02-25 Thread Harman, Christine
Hi All, I am sure that some of you have used AutoDock Vina so I thought I would give it a go and ask two questions. I performed a round of docking and obtained an output file containing 9 different models. The affinity (kcal/mol) ranged from -4.5 to -3.0. My first question is what is

[ccp4bb] Optimizing xtals conditions

2012-08-14 Thread Harman, Christine
Hi all, I need some advice on reproducing crystals that emerged in about 2 months from a screen. The background is I set up a 96-well hangdrop screen and checked the tray after 1 week and then every 2-3day for about 3 weeks. I did notice that this particular drop seemed very dynamic overtime.

[ccp4bb] Suggestion for storage buffer for protein

2012-05-04 Thread Harman, Christine
Hi All, I was wondering if any of you could recommend a buffer to store my Fab fragment for crystallization trials. My Fab is currently stored in 0.1M Sodium Acetate pH5, 150mM NaCl and I have had some success with crystallization hits (three conditions that have actually single crystals);

Hi all, Sorry for the off-topic question, but I wanted to find out anyone's experience with using magnetic anti-flag beads (Sigma). I have been having a problem with the anti-flag antibody leaching from the beads during low pH elution ( which shouldn't be happening I am thinking) and was

[ccp4bb] UV imaging of crystals

2011-09-15 Thread Harman, Christine
Hi All, I was curious if any of you have tried or even know if it is possible to adapt a stereoscope (in my case an Olympus SZX10 model) so as to view protein crystals with UV illumination. Basically, I want a cheap manual version of what a Rock UV Imager does. I know this is probably a crazy

[ccp4bb] Flag tag vs. his-tag

2011-04-19 Thread Harman, Christine
Hi all, I am trying to decide between using a N-term his-tag or an N-term flag tag to be expressed on a protein that I will eventually want to try and crystallize. I usually don't cleave my tags unless absolutely necessary and I want to avoid double tagging. I am leaning towards the flag
