Two Arg side chains stack next to each other in ferritin and in GST (see, for example, Arg-59 and its symmetry mate in 3F33). I expect there are other examples, but these two come readily to mind.

Re: [ccp4bb] difference between polar angle and eulerian angle
According to the html-side the 'visualisation' includes two back-rotations in addition to what you copied here, so there is at least one difference to the visualisation of the Eulerian angles. Right- it says: "This can also be visualised as rotation ϕ about Z, rotation ω about the new Y, rotation κ about the new Z, rotation (-ω) about the new Y, rotation (-ϕ) about the new Z." The first two and the last two rotations can be seen as a "wrapper" which first transforms the coordinates so the rotation axis lies along z, then after the actual kappa rotation is carried out (by rotation about z), transforms the rotated molecule back to the otherwise original position. Or which transforms the coordinate system to put Z along the rotation axis, then after the rotation by kappa about z transforms back to the original coordinate system. Specifically, rotation ϕ about Z brings the axis into the x-z plane so that rotation ω about the Y brings the axis onto the z axis, so that rotation κ about Z is doing the desired rotation about a line that passes through the atoms in the same way the desired lmn axis did in the original orientation; Then the 4'th and 5'th operations are the inverse of the 2nd and first, bringing the rotated molecule back to its otherwise original position I think all the emphasis on "new" y and "new" z is confusing. If we are rotating the molecule (coordinates), then the axes don't change. They pass through the molecule in a different way because the molecule is rotated, but the axes are the same. After the first two rotations the Z axis passes along the desired rotation axis, but the Z axis has not moved, the coordinates (molecules) have. Of course there is the alternate interpretation that we are doing a change of coordinates and expressing the unmoved molecular coordinates relative to new principle axes. but if we are rotating the coordinates about the axes then the axes should remain the same, shouldn't they? Or maybe there is yet another way of looking at it. Tim Gruene wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Dear Qixu Cai, maybe the confusion is due to that your quote seems incomplete.

[ccp4bb] AW: [ccp4bb] Merging Data from Multiple Crystals
Hi Jarrod, I think these 5 helices are either slightly misplaced, or somewhat disordered. How does the main-chain density look like? Do you see a discrete main-chain, or is the main-chain blurred and does the helix look like a blurred cylinder? If the main-chain is clear, I would take off all side chains, run some refinement and look if you could recognize some side chains. They may have shifted a few residues from what you think they are based on the homology model. Another option is to take out the 5 helices and rerun MR with them, using the 7 good helices as a partial model. You could also take one helix out at a time and try to build them again from scratch. Finally, if these helices are somewhat disordered, nothing can be done except from trying to grow different crystals, e.g. by adding a (different) ligand. With 7 out of 12 helices well-defined, your structure will nevertheless be interesting.

The protein has 12 helices and I have a good molecular replacement model that seems to work for about half of the structure. I used chainsaw to convert the amino acid residues to that of my protein sequence, and the density fits the structure well on one side of the protein, but on the other side (about 5 helices), there doesn't seem to be any density for the side chains.

Re: [ccp4bb] maltose binding protein
Rana, It is hard to answer you question without more details (MW and pI of your target protein). MBP binds very well to amylose resins and is usually quite easily bound to anion exchange resins. Did you just run a "standard" ion exchange protocol or try different pH regimes? However, you did mention you have used a detergent. Why do you do that? MBP binding to amylose resins can be markedly disturbed in the presence of several different detergents, which is a particularly bad thing for a membrane protein fusion. That is why all our MBP fusion constructs have an additional His-tag. If you really don't need the detergent, leave it out, then try the amylose resin again. One other point is how old is your amylose resin and, if you express in E. coli, do you regularly add a little glucose to the media? Amylose resin is degraded by E. coli amylases, which I believe is suppressed when glucose is in the medium. However, inferring from your email, I would suppose that you initially purified the MBP fusion using the amylose resin. Good luck, Michael R.

[ccp4bb] symmetry related water
Dear All, I have newly obtained pdb model for my protein where the waters are not numbered according to the chain they belong to. I generated symmetry related molecules for some chains but the waters are together. I would appreciate suggesstions if there is a way out to get symmetry related water specific for a chain type without manually editing the pdb by visual inspection? Thank you in advance. Urvashi
Re: [ccp4bb] maltose binding protein
Dear Mark Thank you for yor reply, and yes I have tried adding it to the maltose resin after cleavage but the MBP runs through with my protein, I have also tried 1M NaCl but with no luck and I also apply detergent after cleavage to the dialysis buffer because I usually dialyze after cleavage , is there anything that could maybe precipitate the MBP Best Regards Rana From: Mark J van Raaij To: rana ibd Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2014 11:35 AM Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] maltose binding protein did you try the maltose-resin? in principle it should bind MPB but not your protein. You can try to add salt or detergents to disturb interaction between MBP and your protein (also in gel filtration). No guarantee of success, unfortunately not all protein behave "nicely".

[ccp4bb] maltose binding protein
Dear CCP4 Does anyone know how to remove the maltose binding protein after cleavage from the target protein; I have tried gel filtration and ion exchange but with no luck, my protein is interacting with the MBP even after complete cleavage. I would be grateful for any help or suggestions Best Regards Rana
Re: [ccp4bb] difference between polar angle and eulerian angle
The polar angles ϕ, ω define the direction of an axis about which a rotation by angle κ occurs, i.e. a single rotation around a defined axis. This is different from Eulerian angles which define 3 successive rotations around principal axes On 27 Mar 2014, at 06:11, Qixu Cai wrote: > Dear all, > > From the definition of CCP4 > (http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/html/rotationmatrices.html), the polar angle (ϕ, ω, κ) > can be visualised as rotation ϕ about Z, rotation ω about the new Y, rotation > κ about the new Z.

Re: [ccp4bb] Trouble with conversion from HKL to CCP4 file format
Hi, I added some explanation for the XSCALE output to the XDSwiki at http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/xdswiki/index.php/Xdsconv#explanation_of_typical_output . hope this helps, Kay
