Re: [ccp4bb] Symmetry operator

2013-01-10 Thread James Stroud
The transformation matrix describing the symmetry is sensitive to the coordinate system origin. You should center the entire tetramer on the origin (0, 0, 0), where the origin coincides with the point symmetry element. If you have a tetramer with true point symmetry, then the center of the

Re: [ccp4bb] Symmetry operator

I need to amend that and make a couple of corrections, after thinking about it. First, the rotation-translations shouldn't be sensitive to the origin. Second, if it has C4 (square) symmetry, then you only need one generator (rotation-translation) to make the tetramer, and the two monomers
