[ccp4bb] pseudotranslation in C2 space group

Hi, There 1.I have collected two data sets one for the native protein (60Kda) and complex of native with other protein of 8 Kda. The shape of native dataset is cubic while that of the complexed one is triangular. A number of dataset were collected for these two and i successfully indexed them to a

Re: [ccp4bb] precipitation after storage

We routinely use a P200 to pipette drops of protein directly into a small Dewar of liquid nitrogen. The protein forms small BB's with a volume of approximately 30 micro-L each. Pipette slowly, allowing the drops to freeze solid before adding the next one. The frozen BB's can be picked up with fo

I am trying to read Bruker's Smart 6000 images with mosflm and it fails. Based on some limited googlearch I feel that "NPIXELB:1" is a relevant information and when these files were processed in HKL (not by me), the relevant detector line says "format ccd bruker smart6000 binned". I see from mosfl

Re: [ccp4bb] bruker smart and mosflm

Hi Ed, Bruker used to supply a utility called FRM2FRM that would "unwarp" their images so that they were readable by Mosflm. You may want to consult them directly; Matt Benning (I believe he's still there) was most helpful when I was having problems with Bruker images a few years ago. HTH, I
