Re: [COOT] Electron density map for ligand
Hi There are some problems still existing. The pdb file contain two domain A and B. As I do not know how to select protein segid A and B and also waters at the same time, I do mask as following: First, I read .pdb file and then .ccp4 file. Then I use Extension>Maps>Mask map by atom selection. I use "//A/1-124" for Atom selection input, then export this map to a1.map Then read it back and Extension>Maps>Mask map by atom selection with "//B/1-124" for Atom selection input, then export this map to a2.map and then do same thing to mask water molecules in A and B (//A/129-200) (//B/129-200) and finally got a4.map. Then I use mapman to transfer a4.map to a4.cns that can be read by text editor. However, I find there are some differences between a4.cns and that from initial .cns file. They have different grid points. What I think before is when I open a4.cns, I can find at which point the density was set to be zero like this: a4.cns 1.222E-1 0.000E0 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 .cns 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 1.222E-1 That is I can find relationships between a4.cns and that .cns. But now I can not find it as they have totally different grid points. Is there any thing wrong in my procedure? How does coot to mask electron density maps? 2009/11/30 Paul Emsley : > pebbleped...@gmail.com wrote: >> >> Hi all >> >> I want to know possible method to get electron density map for ligand >> only. >> >> The material are 2mFo-DFc map downloaded from EDS server and also >> coordinates from PDB. >> >> The electron density map contains protein, water and ligand.

[COOT] Electron density map for ligand
Hi all I want to know possible method to get electron density map for ligand only. The material are 2mFo-DFc map downloaded from EDS server and also coordinates from PDB. The electron density map contains protein, water and ligand. I want to build a electron density map only for ligand. How can I do that with help of some usual softwares like coot, ccp4 Many thanks.

Yes. It should and I will add it now. I do not think refmac writes this info into the output file but it will do in one or two days time.

Re: [COOT] Automatic column asignment for refmac
At the moment refmac does extremely simple selection. First structure factor label and the first sigma that has similar name to the first structure factor, if not then the first sigma. It works for a class of cases but it cannot be universal. While we are on this matter I think it would be good to not mix input mtz and output mtz from refinement. They may have completely different meaning. I.e. for refinement always original mtz after scala/truncate with correct space group assigned should be used. Structure factors in the output mtz may have been modified by the programs and these modifications are based on some assumptions that may or may not be correct at the time of that program processing that dataset. As information changes (e.g. better model) modification may also change. i hope I did not add more confusion.

Re: [COOT] Automatic column asignment for refmac

Re: [COOT] Automatic column asignment for refmac
Hi Kevin, As Clemens pointed out it was not a phaser but a user problem. I accidently used a buster mtz file for phaser. For autoproc - phaser everything works as expected. I have attached the mtzdump of a buster mtz-file. If you could support auto-open for that it would be great. Do you see a way to include in the refmac-from-coot logfile which mtz columns were used?

Re: [COOT] Automatic column asignment for refmac
Dear Alexander, FCTR looks like it is coming from a BUSTER refinement: http://www.globalphasing.com/buster/manual/buster/manual/chapter5.html#mlphas This column is obviously only intended for looking at maps (however: usually one looks at the 2FOFCWT/PH2FOFCWT and FOFCWT/PHFOFCWT maps). So there mus thave been some additional step like autoPROC -> Phaser -> BUSTER -> Coot or autoPROC -> BUSTER -> Phaser -> Coot involved? Those problems often occur when one keeps 'chaining' the use of MTZ files: the MTZ file for looking at maps (all kind of additional columns, scaling might have been taken place etc) should ideally be different from the one used in refinement (this should always be the same 'master' file after data processing and adding test set flag). I guess by combining map viewing in Coot with driving refinement from the gui as well this can become tricky.
