[ccp4bb] Berkeley Server Downtime

2015-06-08 Thread Paul Adams
Dear Colleagues,

  the CCI group in Berkeley is moving to a new building this week. As a result 
several structural biology web services will be offline for a short while. 
These include:

- The Phenix web site (http://phenix-online.org/)
- The DIALS West web site (http://dials.lbl.gov/)
- The CCI web site (http://cci.lbl.gov/)
- The Structural Biology Technology Portal (http://technology.sbkb.org/)

  The servers will be shutdown at 9am Pacific time on Wednesday 10th. Services 
should resume by the morning of Friday 12th at the latest. During the downtime 
bug reports and emails requesting help should be queued and received by us once 
the servers are back online. We greatly appreciate your understanding, and hope 
that this doesn’t present too much of an inconvenience.

  Cheers,
Paul

[ccp4bb] PDBe workshop on programmatic access to macromolecular structure information, 24-25 September 2015

2015-06-08 Thread Sameer Velankar

Programmatic Access to Macromolecular Structure Information


PDBe Workshop for Programmers, 24-25 September 2015

Deadline for application: Friday 26 June 2015

 What?

The Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe;www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/ 
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/) is organising a hands-on, interactive 
workshop for developers interested in using primary and value-added 
information about the 3D structures in PDB and EMDB. Programmatic access 
to macromolecular structure data as well as information about 
assemblies, structure quality, literature and citations, and up-to-date 
cross-references to other biomedical resources (UniProt, Pfam, CATH, 
SCOP, etc.) are a critical requirement for integrative bioinformatics 
analyses and workflows.


PDBe has developed a set of REST APIs 
(http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/api/doc) that provide easy access to 
high-quality information regarding biomacromolecular structures archived 
in PDB and EMDB. They provide a simple, reliable, light-weight mechanism 
to query macromolecular structure data, select entries or molecules of 
interest, and access targeted information about them, including 
information about the molecules, experimental details, assemblies, 
motifs, function, taxonomy, structure quality, etc. The API is used by 
PDBe services and is also integrated in Jmol/JSmol. We will also present 
Solr/Lucene based query API for macromolecular structure information 
including PDB, EMDB and value added information on assemblies, structure 
quality and up-to-date cross-reference information to other biomedical 
databases based on SIFTS (http://pdbe.org/sifts) .



 Is it for me?

Do you (plan to) develop software or online resources that use or need 
access to information about structures in PDB or EMDB? Would you rather 
not maintain your private infrastructure for retrieving, parsing, 
storing and updating such information?


If so, then this workshop is for you. We will explain what information 
is available through the API and how you can access it from your own 
software or resource. There will be plenty of time for hands-on work 
where experienced PDBe developers will help you to use the API for your 
specific needs.



 When and where?

The workshop will take place on 24  25 September 2015 (starting at 
12.00 on 24 September, and finishing at 16.00 on 25 September) at 
EMBL-EBI (www.ebi.ac.uk http://www.ebi.ac.uk) in Hinxton, near Cambridge.



 How much does it cost?

There is no fee for the workshop. However, we expect you to arrange and 
pay for your own travel to and from EMBL-EBI.


Accommodation will be provided if required at the Wellcome Trust 
Conference Centrewww.wtconference.org.uk 
http://www.wtconference.org.ukwhich is on the same campus as EMBL-EBI.


Refreshments, lunch on both days and a workshop dinner on 24 September 
will all be provided.



 How can I apply?

To apply for the workshop, email Jose Dana at d...@ebi.ac.ukno later 
than Friday 26 Junewith the following details:


· a brief description of the software you have developed or are 
developing - i.e. what it does, in which field, how many users, relevant 
publications, etc.


· programming language(s) you are specifically interested in 
(Python examples and tutorials will be provided)


· how you would benefit from this workshop

· any specific topics or questions you would like to see 
addressed in the workshop


If the workshop is oversubscribed, we will select participants based on 
the information provided.


You will be informed by the end of June if you have been selected for 
the workshop or not.



 Prerequisites?

Basic programming experience in use of REST API’s. Bring your own laptop 
with git and iPython notebook pre-installed if you want to follow the 
Python tutorial and examples. If you need to make plots, make sure that 
matplotlib is also installed.



= Questions?

Jose Dana (d...@ebi.ac.uk) at PDBe will be happy to answer any queries 
you have about the workshop.




Re: [ccp4bb] Refmac fatal error with newly added ligand

2015-06-08 Thread Robbie Joosten
Hi Sze Yi,

There is already a compound named LIG in the Refmac dictionary. So either
you have to choose a new name or you overrule the dictionary by supplying a
restraint file in your Refmac run.

Cheers,
Robbie

 Hello,
 
 I generated my new ligand using smiles string in Phenix with elbow to
 generate my ligand cif and pdb file. I then open these in Coot along with
my
 protein model and mtz and fitted this new ligand into my density.
 However Refmac failed with the following details in my log file:

Dear All,

In the spirit of complementary methods (e.g. see Acta Cryst.D Vol 71), I would 
like to bring to your attention an upcoming bootcamp on“Isothermal Titration 
Calorimetry Analysis”, to be held 10-11 September, 2015at the NIH in Bethesda, 
MD, USA.   Topics will include basic principlesand advanced topics like 
multi-site binding models, experimental design,multi-method global analysis, 
and use of cutting-edge analytical softwareincluding NITPIC, ITCsy, and GUSSI.  
The bootcamp is organized by theFoundation for Advanced Education in the 
Sciences.  You can sign up andget more information at
