[ccp4bb] resolution and hydrogen bonds

2007-03-08 Thread Jacqueline Vitali
Hello, Does anyone know of a reference discussing the effect of resolution on the number of hydrogen bonds in a structure? I think the number is less precise and accurate at lower resolution but is there an estimate of error? If we define packing density as the ratio of van der waals volume of

Thanks to Petrus Zwart, Navraj Pannu, Marc Schiltz and Kevin Cowtan I've got a clearer idea as to what's going on (at least until I manage to confuse myself again). >1. How does one determine the amplitude and phase to use from a given >likelihood surface? Some of the papers I've read refer to us

You have to sort the mosflm files together. i.e in ccp4i>datareduction>sort/modify/combine you add both mtz files (with help of [add file] button. then you scale them in two runs in scala (run 1 1 to 36 run 2 38 to 180, in case that's not obvious). ccp4 uses (unfortunately) 'merging' in several

Dear all, I am currently working on processing a data set with mosflm and scala and I'm running into a bit of difficulty. When running MOSFLM the program crashes at image 37, but if I integrate from 1-36 and 38-180 then everything is fine. I attempted to merge them with CAD 'before' scaling but n

Well - you kind of need to be selective I find. Here is a totally unautomated procedure! I run DISTANG (DIST INTER RADI CA 3) or NCONT to find all the sym ops which give contacts between molecules, then use PDBSET to generate those sym ops I like pdbset xyzin 1.pdb xyzout Si.pdb symgen 2-x,y-

Hi all, before I start with some scripting myself, does anybody have a utility, which takes a PDB and the cell and space group information and then writes out the original PDB together with all molecules contacting the first one in the crystal? Thanks, Manfred. *

OK, here's my first attempt at an automatic file converter. It's not complete, but I think it should do the majority of files. What it does: 1. Reads a non-anomalous CNS file, either with or without labels in the main data block. There must be a complete set of 'DECL' lines at the beginning of
