[ccp4bb] How to show density map in pymol?

2007-10-31 Thread yang li
Hi All,
  If I want to show the density map in pymol--like coot open mtz file--,
what format should I use?
It seems pymol doesnot recognise the mtz format .

Thanks!

Dear Yanming,

To show pretty density of a model you have to import a ccp4 density map
and display it around your ligand. The simplest solution is using ccp4 and
tick the box Generate weighted difference maps files in CCP4 format when
running Refmac5 (one  or two cycles  are enough).  Specify  names for FWT
and DelFwt maps and rename the maps afterwards to *.ccp4. This renamed map
(e.g. fwt.ccp4) can be opened in pymol. [...]
