To all, For those of us who are do-it-yourselfers and like to work at home (and who may have tons of tape), here is something of interest: http://arstechnica.com/journals/science.ars/2008/10/22/home-made-x- rays-and-other-fun-with-tape I suppose we could dope the tape with different

Even better, with 2 ns pulses, we should be able to do time-resolved crystallography after looting the office supply cabinet. Unfortunately, our division cut their scotch tape budget. On Oct 23, 2008, at 6:38 AM, R.M. Garavito wrote: To all, For those of us who are do-it-yourselfers and

[ccp4bb] Hel with library definition for Asn-NAG link

2008-10-23 Thread mark Mayer
We are refining a 2.7 A structure with multiple ASN-NAG links. The torsion angle between the Asn amide and the sugar is quite variable, while from the chemistry of this link we would expect a value close to 180°, as reported in the PDB survey by Imberty Perez (Protein Engineering
