Re: [ccp4bb] Occupancy refinement of overlapping electron density of a residue and ligand

Hi Nestor, I think the reason for Arg side chain to curl up is because I refined ligand and Arg side chain with occupancy refinement, and the Arg moved away from the density, most likely due to 'repulsion' from ligand. The other question is: Is it possible that the H-bonds stay very

[ccp4bb] lysine methylation in E. coli?

2019-11-05 Thread Jennifer Fleming
Dear CCP4 community, I am hoping that someone here might know the answer to this as I cannot find anything concrete in my literature search. I have recently received a mass spec result indicating that a recombinant protein expressed in /E. coli/ is heavily lysine methylated. I would like

It happens. Ef-Tu is methylated on a single lysine Also LafV is a putative methylase in E. Coli but its effects were not studied in detail. Salmonella methylates flagellin which is how lysine methylation was discovered - and E.coli is a kissing cousin so... Artem On Tue, Nov 5, 2019, 12:31

Re: [ccp4bb] why does Coot ignore CONECT?

Hi Pavel I work with peptide-scaffold chimeras on a daily basis. Initially, I tried to include the scaffolds as HETATM and use JLigand to create the links between the scaffolds and the natural amino acids. This procedure however is rather fussy and by now I build the chimera in silico, using

2019-11-05 Thread Robert Nicholls
Dear HK, If you believe that R120 only adopts one conformation then you should not refine the occupancies of the side chain atoms. It makes no physical sense to have occupancies less than one for these atoms, but occupancy equal to one for the rest of the protein (unless you believe the side

Dear HK, No that's not quite correct - 'occupancy group alts complete' means that both R120 and the ligand are constrained so that their occupancies sum to unity. In contrast, 'occupancy group alts incomplete' means that the occupancies of R120 and the ligand will not be constrained to sum to

Dear all, I have problem with occupancy refinement by Refmac5 for an overlapping electron density of part of residue (an arginine) and part of ligand (tetracyclic compound) (attached figures in Dropbox with a link as shown below).
