Dear Javier, without the analysis of the anomalous signal you have a 50:50 chance to get the correct configuration, and those times were too early for that. The comment may have been added later and/or from using a different type of experiment. Best, Tim On 05/13/2014 02:21 AM, Javier Gonzalez

[ccp4bb] Helix alignment and movement

Dear Eugene and other CCP4ers The recent discussion about superposition has prompted me to ask about a different kind of superposition problem. We are working on a small dimeric protein that is entirely made up of helices. Instead of large, concerted domain movements, which I am quite

Dear Mike, I think that the old CCP4 superpose program used to be able to do this ? (This was a FORTRAN program, based on code from Wayne Hendrickson's PROLSQ program). With this program you specify one set of residues to do the alignment with and another set to do the

Sanjit, We routinely use Protein G coupled resins for purification of monoclonals produced in the facility. On a structural level, antibodies typically recognize 5 or more residues in a protein unless the immunogen, such as a single amino acid in your case, is a hapten conjugated to a carrier

[ccp4bb] puzzle of reference zone in HKL2000

Hi everybody! I met with a problem when I was reading the HKL2000 online manual. It's the reference zone setup in the Step 11: What is the reference zone? How is this useful? (page 38, figure 38). Does anybody know the definition of reference zone, and why the reference zone setup window seems

[ccp4bb] High B-factors

Hi all, We have solved the structure of a protein at 2.3 A with the final R-work and R-free at 0.24 and 0.28, respectively. However, the B-factors are high, with an average of 72. There are 3 molecules in the asymmetric unit and the 3rd molecule is very disordered and I believe is the main

Dear Felix, I recently had the same problem. I didn't think TER records were a big deal. I never had a program that did weird thing because of missing TER records. But well, orders are orders, so we need TER records for deposition. It would be nice if all refinement programs would write those.
