Re: [ccp4bb] Selecting best chain for NCS

Hi Chetan, Unless the model is horrendously far away from the final result, I would do the following instead of the chain copying: - Start from chain A with NCS ghosts in COOT and go through the model residue by residue. Refine 3-residue windows. If you see NCS deviation. Cycle through the othe

[ccp4bb] Selecting best chain for NCS

Hello All, I am trying to refine some protein structure and right now my structure's R-free is not coming down from 37% even the R-work is lowering in each round of refinements. When phasing done, it created 8 chains for dimer protein (~750 aa's per unit). So I am using NCS for refinement in each c

Hi Gerard That's a lovely picture - many thanks. I haven't seen Thierry for a long time - how is he? Did I miss him in Oviedo? On 3 Dec 2018, at 09:05, Gerard Bricogne wrote: > Dear Harry, > > Your last sentence below made me think that you might well be > interested in this detector, the

Re: [ccp4bb] photograph of Enraf-Nonius FAST detector

Hi Ben Thanks for this - if what you're seeing is what I get when I use that URL it's not quite as useful as I would have hoped! I did ask the Science Museum if they had any photos of kit that is not in their current photographic collection and they offered to take the photos for , so I dec
