Re: [ccp4bb] Anomalous atom or ligand?

Respected Mam,

I used Cadmium at home source 1.54179Ang. For detecting the
anomalous peaks CAD and FFT was used. It has Se also. So while
refining the occupancies of Cd, Se, S and P are also refined.

Thanking you
Respectfully
Kavya

Not sure I follow you completely.. You dont say what anom scatterer you
expect, or what the wavelength is.

1) How did you find the anomalous peaks? If from an anomalous  difference
Fourier there will inevitably  be noise.
In practice when there are S to check this can be very helpful in deciding
on noise levels. You can be pretty sure
that SG and SD are indeed S, and if the wave length is appropriate, that
they should show some anom. signal.

One often finds the well defined S show up well. then there is a grey area
wher they are down amongst noise but still appear. It often highlights how
many MET are in alternate conformations..

If possible I like to use these as bench marks for P. But in my experience
the P are often even weaker - maybe the ligand is not fully occupied, or
the P temp. factors are higher?

[ccp4bb] Anomalous atom or ligand?

2013-04-24 Thread Kavyashree Manjunath
Dear users,

After detecting the anomalous peaks in a data, Is it
necessary that there will be an anomalous atom in most
of the peaks?

In a particular case, a low ranking peak was assigned
an anomalous atom because it was present in the native
structure, while a peak with a rank higher than this
one did not correspond to anomalous position in native
structure.

For eg. Peak 15 in ligand bound structure corresponds to
the anomalous position in native structure, so anomalous
atom was assigned.
But Peak 3,4 in ligand bound structure does not correspond
to anomalous position in native structure but it is present
near the ligand which is beta and gamma Phosphates of ATP.
The question is whether It is ATP or AMP and 2 anomalous
atoms?

Thanking you
Regards
Kavya
