[ccp4bb] Phaser output in QtRView under Windows XP

2013-12-04 Thread Derek Logan
Hi, I need (reluctantly!) to install CCP4 on 20 fairly ancient Windows XP machines for a course. I have installed CCP4 on a central server with network-mounted drive and applied all the updates. CCP4 is then runnable on the individual computers. However when I run a Phaser job the output in

Hi Ian, This probably doesn't affect the MTZ file that comes out of it but it will affect the statistics of the twinning tests. I'd be interested to see if this solves the cases where ctruncate goes into an infinite loop during the twinning tests. Cheers, Robbie Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2013

Hi Robbie, I contacted Charles Ballard a few weeks ago on the very same issue and he has efficiently rolled out a fix for it in the latest CCP4 update :-) Update ID: 6.4.0-001 Date: 25.10.13 Cheers, Jon On 4 December 2013 09:23, Robbie Joosten robbie_joos...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi Ian, This

Hi again, Following up on my mail earlier this morning, I installed CCP4 in a virtual Windows XP machine on my Mac. When I run Phaser in Windows the QtRView output is lacking the graphical section, as described for the course computers, but I can open the log file generated in the Mac OS X

[ccp4bb] Can Mathew's coefficient tell about a complex

2013-12-04 Thread abbas maqbool
Dear All, I crystallized a complex of two proteins and got x-ray data. However I dont know if I have got complex or just one of the protein has crystallized. Can I check it by mathew's coefficient? If yes how? One of my protein is 30 kDa nad other one is 12 kDa. Actually I calculated Mathew's

Looks like 1 or 2 protein units per ASU. Two seems most likely, but I have had a bunch of crystals with 67% solvent, too, so 1 is not out of the question if less probable. So try both with your favorite MR method and see what happens. Crystal packing in the MR solution will tell all.

First of all, there are two Ts and no apostrophe in Matthews. The method is based on the following paper, which is worth reading. It is one of the first examples, possibly the first, of structural bioinformatics. J Mol Biol. 1968 Apr 28;33(2):491-7. Solvent content of protein crystals.
