Re: [ccp4bb] how to dump diffraction image header info?

2014-12-02 Thread Takaaki Fukami
Dear all, Thank you all giving a valuable information. I wanted to get the header info in my script, and from images not only in the .cbf format, though I didn’t write so. Thanks Harry for giving me a list of formats which have a text header. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a way to print out

[ccp4bb] PhD in structural biology of membrane protein complexes, IST Austria

2014-12-02 Thread Leonid Sazanov
Applications are invited for the PhD course in IST Austria, with specialisation in structural biology of large membrane protein complexes, in particular complex I. Complex I is central to bioenergetics – it is the first and largest enzyme of the respiratory chain in mitochondria and bacteria.

Re: [ccp4bb] Intensities and amplitudes

2014-12-02 Thread Randy Read
Dear Mohamed, At the moment, a lot of programs require amplitudes, but I believe that they should all eventually be updated to use intensities. In fact, we’re in the end stages of a large project to switch Phaser from using amplitudes to using intensities. There are a number of reasons why,

Re: [ccp4bb] Intensities and amplitudes

2014-12-02 Thread Pavel Afonine
Hi Randy, I can see all good reasons for using intensities! What about maps and R-factors? I guess you still need F to compute them (I realize you can compute R(I) but this is not what people are used to do in general), and if that's the case then I-F is still inevitable (at least for some

Re: [ccp4bb] Intensities and amplitudes

2014-12-02 Thread Randy Read
Hi Pavel, We were chatting with Phil Evans the other day about things like this, and generally we were in agreement that any programs that need amplitudes (and you’re right of course, you have to have some sort of amplitude to calculate a map!) should be able to compute them on the fly. That
