[ccp4bb] Molecular replacement problem
I've been pulling out my hair with this for a few months now. I have data sets to 2.6 A for a new enzyme in the aminotransferase superfamily. Unfortunately, the closest structure is only 25% identity. MR with PHASER using the monomer was a complete failure. Since the minimum structure of enzymes in the family is a dimer (the active site is formed at the monomer-monomer interface), I used dimers for MR with PHASER. Most of the results were marginal, but one looks good. However, it will not refine. Everything I have done with this solution has failed, simulated annealing, morphing, etc., it will not refine; AUTOBUILD and BUCCANEER with it do not give any useable models, since they have poor statistics and low completeness. The output from PHASER is below. ** SINGLE solution ** Solution written to PDB file: DGL_phaser.1.pdb ** Solution written to MTZ file: DGL_phaser.1.mtz Solution annotation (history): SOLU SET RFZ=18.9 TFZ=23.0 PAK=0 LLG=193 TFZ==8.3 LLG=994 TFZ==20.1 PAK=0 LLG=994 TFZ==20.1 SOLU SPAC P 2 2 21 SOLU 6DIM ENSE ense_1 EULER 360.00.00.0 FRAC -0.00 -0.00 -0.00 BFAC -0.12 MULT 2 #TFZ==20.1 SOLU ENSEMBLE ense_1 VRMS DELTA -3.5403 #RMSD 2.08 #VRMS 0.89 With LLG = 994 and TFZ = 20.1, isn't this a real solution?

[ccp4bb] CCP4 7.1 problems
I installed CCP4 7.1 yesterday, and I have problems. On an Ubuntu 18.04 LTS system, I get the following: rob@rob-SA76R4:~$ ccp4i2 Running CCP4i2 browser from: /home/rob/CCP4/ccp4-7.1/share/ccp4i2 Python 2.7.16 (default, Apr 22 2020, 09:15:14) [GCC 4.9.1 20140922 (Red Hat 4.9.1-10)] Qt version 4.8.7 Illegal instruction Then, back to the prompt.

[ccp4bb] difficult molecular replacement solution
I have been working on a protein structure which has been hard to solve by molecular replacement. Unit cell: (60.6, 172.34, 196.42, 90, 90, 90) Space group: P 21 21 21 The problem is that the homologues have only ~20% identity, and there are multiple chains in the asymmetric unit. The question is how many. It could be 4, 5, or 6 chains. N solvent P 4 0.602 3.090.225 5 0.502 2.470.388 6 0.403 2.060.229 I have run PHASER with 4, 5 and 6 chains. I allowed it to search all possible space groups, and P212121 was the best solution. These are the results. N LLG TFZ 4 104.97.5 5 137.57.7 6 166.28.3 Am I correct to conclude that there are 6 chains in the asymmetric unit? Rob Robert S.

[ccp4bb] Rfree too high
I have several data sets of Salmonella tryptophan synthase with different ligands bound in the beta-site. The data look good, with high resolution, and reasonable Rmeas. The ligand density is very clear. However, refinement seems to be stuck at Rfree = 22%. For this resolution (~1.4 A) it should be much better. What could be the problem?
