Dear all, thanks to everybody who offered their experience and hints. The most convenient way of preparing a packing diagramme, at least for me, was via PyMol as suggested by Michael Klein (see below). One can do something similar with the CCP4 graphics package, but for some reason the pro

Dear ccp4bb-people, I would like to depict my protein with curved cylindrical helices using PyMOL. (I know and use bobscript "rod fitted" for this purpose and like it.) Anyway, I wonder if anybody has a script or knows how to tell PyMOL to follow the curvature of helices in the cylindrical

Actually, PyMOL cannot bend cylindrical helices. The workaround is to break them manually: load $PYMOL_PATH/test/dat/1tii.pdb as cartoon set cartoon_cylindrical_helices # Insert a break into the longest helix (only slightly bent) cartoon skip, C/216/CA Cheers, Warren PS. This is the CCP4

In the latest versions of refmac, it has a default selection of TLS groups so that you don't need to create a TLSIN file. I believe this default selection includes waters in the first hydration shell. You should be able to override this with an explicit selection in TLSIN. Cheers Martyn On Thu, 2

I suspect that your question is CNS-related. Easy is relative, but what you need to do is to uncomment the appropriate DIHEDRAL statements (assuming that used xplo2d, they will be there but mostly commented out). Just figure out what values you need for particular angles. If it is wise to fix li
