[ccp4bb] pdb format problem of an intermolecular disulfide bond from different symmetric units
Hello, everyone,o:p/o:pnbsp;Recently, we found an intermolecular disulfide bond from different symmetric units. I want to define it to refine, such as by refmac5. nbsp;I know the regular format of a disulfide bond in the same symmetric unit and show it as below.o:p/o:pnbsp;SSBONDnbsp;nbsp; 1 CYS Anbsp; 115nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; CYS Anbsp; 191o:p/o:pnbsp;My question is:nbsp;How to define a disulfide bond from different symmetric units?o:p/o:pnbsp;Best,o:p/o:pzhongzhou chen
Re: [ccp4bb] Interesting DNA contamination
Dear Stefan, just saw this after reading post: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v522/n7557/full/nature14559.html Best, Guenter Pramod, You already got good suggestions on how to handle DNA contamination in protein preparations. Let me point out briefly that you haven't demonstrated yet that your contamination is DNA. I had the same observation when purifying UvsX. A very persistent and strong contamination in all my preps at ~500kb. To test weather it was DNA or RNA I boiled the protein 30 minutes and incubated it with DNAase and RNAse and result was the same. I concluded it was neither RNA nor DNA and continued as if nothing had happened. This publication is reporting the same observation: Formosa and Alberts (1986) Purification and characterization of the T4 bacteriophage uvsX protein. J Biol Chem. 1986 May 5;261(13):6107-18. If you ever find out what it is that runs like 500kb DNA on Agarose, please let me know. S.

Can anyone suggest a method/program for analysing conserved waters between two related protein structures? Rex Palmer http://www.bbk.ac.uk/biology/our-staff/emeritus-staff http://www.springer.com/978-1-4614-3954-7
Re: [ccp4bb] pdb format problem of an intermolecular disulfide bond from different symmetric units
you add something like 2555 to define the required symmetry operator on the ssbond line. - the exact format is described in the pdb convention. But I think refmac does it i think if you as it to make disulphides.

Re: [ccp4bb] imosflm errors
Thanks Jurgen, But there is no space in the last directory, I do not know where it is coming from. Its really making me crazy, because I have 0.95 Angs data of a long peptide, I wanted to solve it over the weekend!! I have no clue why this is happening Thanks for your suggestion!

Re: [ccp4bb] imosflm errors
Thanks for your suggestion, Jurgen I tried xia2 and tried it several times, turning the machine off, rebooting, using different data sets, exiting ccp4i but every time it gives this error msg.(attached) On Sun, Jun 28, 2015 at 2:16 PM, Jurgen Bosch jbos...@jhu.edu wrote: Try xia2 from ccp4i and see if it also chokes.
