Hi Folks,
The paper Phil recommended looks very nice. Below is a summary when
last time I asked people about this.

Subject: [ccp4bb] Summary: measure detergent concentration
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:49:32 -0400
From: wei...@crystal.harvard
I like the phenol-sulfuric acid colorimetric assay (Anal Biochem. 2005
Jan 1;336(1):117-24). Easy, very linear, no special
ingredients/equipment required. In agreement with their paper, I also
found that DDM passes through the 100 kD concentrator membranes.

Hi Reiner
I haven't seen this problem before; if you send me all the relevant files
I will try to check it out. It may relate to the fact that the GRASP files
were made with Chimera.

How certain are you of the space group?
I ask because in all versions of PHASER that I have used to date, it chooses
the space group (when SGALTERNATIVE is set) after placing the first molecule

first molecule is the c

There is a nice new paper online, dealing with this subject:

The radiation damage with Ta6Br12 collected on the absorption edge is very
severe. There may be a case for avoiding the edge wavelength for this reason

Hi all
I'm reading a recent review by Elspeth Garman regarding radiation
damage (Acta Cryst D) and in this she mentions two ideas regarding
metal centers:

Hello Petr,
if you put this line into .profile, it affects all your programs, which might be
unwanted (otherwise one would not have changed the locale in the first place).
It would be better/ cleaner to put this line (actually without the 'export',

Could anybody tell me how to detect the concentration of detergent?

Dear Y B Lin,
Measuring detergent has been discussed before on this list - one way is to do

Hi YB,
For membrane protein crystallization it is common practice (although not always
necessary) to dialyze the protein after the final concentration step (against
GF buffer). The problem with DDM is that dialysis is slow due to the low cmc,
and in general it is advisable to finish the prep an

Dear all,
I want to crystallize a symport transporter, which contains 12 transmembrane
alpha-helices. We used Ni-resin column firstly, and then size exclusion. After
size exclusion, only one peak, it is very nice. the final condition is 10 mM
mes, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM sucrose, 1 mM DTT, and 0.02%
Hello everybody,
I recently tried to feed the shape complementarity program (sc) with GRASP
surface files for visualisation. Sc is supposed to output modified surface
files, again, in GRASP format. However, the program terminated without
producing a file, or, sometimes, writing truncated ones.

Is the Mac set up with an unusual language, locale or set of formats?

Hi Boaz
thanks for the advice - Yes your suggestions are very useful thank you!
I actually have not tried Phaser with the P4 data so I will give that a shot.
Curiously Pointless selects P21 from P4 and P421/3 from P21...
I tried MolRep in P1 but Phaser failed to find any solution though
