Dear Alex

BLEND will be released soon through the CCP4 Updates. In the meantime, the
easiest way to try it out is to install one of the nightly builds from
here: http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/dev/nightly/. The usual warnings apply. What
you obtain that way may not be (fully) tested, and may differ slightly from
what is finally released. Your comments are welcome.

I hope this helps. Cheers,

-- David

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.

Best,
Herman

Betreff: [ccp4bb] Merging Data from Multiple Crystals

Hi,

I am trying to solve the structure of a membrane protein. 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. Has anyone had experience with 
this? The completeness is high ~99% for 3.2 angstroms. The data was collected 
from fairly small crystals ~ 20um.

Thanks.

Hi,

You may also try BLEND to choose the optimal data sets before scaling 
and merging

Dear Jarrod,

try pointless and aimless to merge the data, this should get rid of
this error message. Otherwise you would have to renumber the batches,
which might be tedious and also unnecessary since pointless has been
around.

Best,
Tim

Hi,

I am trying to solve the structure of a membrane protein. 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. Has anyone had experience with 
this? The completeness is high ~99% for 3.2 angstroms. The data was collected 
from fairly small crystals ~ 20um.

Thanks.
