[ccp4bb] Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology - Gordon Research Conference - in-person! - July 24-29, 2022

2022-05-02 Thread James Holton
Many of you may recall approximately 1000 years ago we were looking 
forward to getting together for another great Diffraction Methods GRC. 
Now, after a 4-year break, the meeting is on!

https://www.grc.org/diffraction-methods-in-structural-biology-conference/2022/

It will be in-person at Bates College in Lewiston, ME, USA, on July 
24-29 of 2022. Strange how it is strange to be considering meeting in 
person, but recent GRCs have proven they can be conducted safely. We've 
learned a lot about viruses in recent years, both in our lives and in 
our labs. Artificial Intelligence has come a long way, and the role of 
biological structure, and indeed science in general, is impacting the 
everyday lives of human beings more than ever before.


It is time we got together to talk about all this. Yes, we've gotten a 
lot of work done remotely, but some things just have to wait until you 
are face-to-face. Preferably over a Maine lobster dinner. GRCs are not 
about listening to talks, they are about the discussion that comes 
after. Newcomers and Veterans sharing and debating ideas until far too 
late at night. It is my sincere hope that fighting this virus, and 
looking toward a brighter future, will inspire even more visionary and 
collaborative ideas for the role structure will play in that future. I 
can't imagine a better theme of discussion for this next meeting.

MAD Scientist and Chair of the 2020/2022 Diffraction Methods GRC

Re: [ccp4bb] help request (synchrotron schedules)

2022-05-02 Thread Marcin Wojdyr
If you'd be interested in historical synchrotron schedules, they can
be approximately guessed from pdb data, from data collection dates.
Unfortunately, in many entries the dates are random, so there is
significant noise there. Here is how it looks:

[ccp4bb] help request (synchrotron schedules)

2022-05-02 Thread Artem Evdokimov
Dear CCP4-ers :)

I used to have a handy chart where major synchrotron schedules were all
drawn out as lines (across an entire year) with shutdowns and other
blackout dates marked such that it was pretty easy to find what
synchrotron is open for business at what week/month. This schedule took me
a while to assemble since not every synchrotron handily posts their
shutdown schedule and one has to call friends and ask around.

Needless to say, being a putz that I am, I eventually lost this lovely
document. So, I wonder - does anyone here have something similar that they
won't mind sharing? If enough people share (even individual schedules) I am
happy to post the resulting schedule back here for everyone to enjoy...

Many thanks!

Artem

Re: [ccp4bb] Regrading Naccess

2022-05-02 Thread Jon Cooper
Hello, I would try deleting the header records i.e. REMARKs, etc, leaving only 
ATOMS and possibly HETATMs. Also, your filename (_2H ?) suggests the PDB file 
has riding hydrogen atoms in it which might throw naccess off course. Best 
wishes, Jon.C.
