Dear Charlie

There's good documentation here:

Hope it helps

Jose

Hi Charlie,

I just visited the RCSB PDB website and looked up a random structure. You can 
still download the biological unit in pdb format from the download files 
pulldown

I knew this would happen one day. I loathed the cif versions of the 
coordinates, but fortunately, I’ve never had to use a .cif file. 

Now, the pdb no longer offers anything but…

I cannot find in the .cif file where the instructions are to generate the 
biological molecule from the asymmetric unit. How does one do this please?

Thanks,

Charlie

[ccp4bb] biological molecule?

[Carter, Charlie]

I knew this would happen one day. I loathed the cif versions of the 
coordinates, but fortunately, I’ve never had to use a .cif file. 

Now, the pdb no longer offers anything but…

I cannot find in the .cif file where the instructions are to generate the 
biological molecule from the asymmetric unit. How does one do this please?

Thanks,

Charlie

[ccp4bb] 9th workshop on Neutron Scattering Applications in Structural Biology

[Meilleur, Flora]

Second announcement

9th Workshop on Neutron Scattering Applications in Structural Biology
Oak Ridge, TN. June 11 - June 15, 2018
Travel and accommodation expenses are supported for selected participants. No 
registration fee.

Detailed information can be found on the workshop web page: 
https://conference.sns.gov/biologyneutrons18/
Application deadline: April 30, 2018

The workshop on Neutron Scattering Applications in Structural Biology aims at 
enabling structural biologists to fully exploit the latest instrumentation and 
software development at the SNS and HFIR facilities at Oak Ridge National 
Laboratory. Attendees will participate in lectures and tutorials focusing 
exclusively on neutron techniques applied in structural biology. The workshop 
is designed for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and faculty new to or 
with limited experience of neutron scattering.

[ccp4bb] [Meeting Announcement] European Crystallographic Computing Forum 2018 in Mieres, Spain

[Andrea Thorn]

Dear all,

Registration for the European Crystallographic Computing Forum is open:

https://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/harry/ecacomsig/mieres.html

A poster for print can be downloaded here:
https://we.tl/CyPFzYvorG Spread the word!

The Forum will be held in Mieres, Spain, 18th - 22nd August 2018 
(preceding the ECM). We invite both beginners (from graduate level) and 
experienced software developers from all crystallographic disciplines. 
Participants can bring their own software development project to work on 
it in teams, interspersed with tutorials and lectures. There will be 
opportunity to exchange and connect with other crystallographic software 
developers.


The registration fee (360 €) includes: accommodation (4 nights), full 
board and refreshments and transfer to the ECM. We offer childcare and 
family rooms. Bursaries are available.


We hope to see you there!
