Re: [ccp4bb] Why nobody comments about the Nobel committee decision?

Dear Axel, Quite so, absolutely. Theoretical physics and theoretical chemistry sweeped the awards at the Nobels this week. As I remarked on that other medium yesterday (twitter):- I confess to preferring a joint theory and experiment approach, but the Nobel Committee didn't ie I think 'that

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Position Available - ISMB, London

A postdoctoral position is available in the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology to undertake structural analysis of complexes of the molecular chaperone Hsp90. The position is funded by the BBSRC for two years and 5 months within the group of Cara Vaughan. The researcher will be

Re: [ccp4bb] Smallest crystal used for a whole dataset (at a synchrotron!)

Hi Oliver, Have a look at the viral polyhedra work: Coulibaly, F., et al., The molecular organization of cypovirus polyhedra. Nature, 2007. 446(7131): p. 97-101. Coulibaly, F., et al., The atomic structure of baculovirus polyhedra reveals the independent emergence

[ccp4bb] Low resolution and polyalanine mutation

I apologize for being a bit naive, but it turns out that I'm working an low resolution mode (3.6 A). A great part of the chains have previously been built with polyalanine, since there's obviously no density for the side chains. When using phenix, I obtain a model just as good with all residues

[ccp4bb] R and R free from CIF file deposited in PDB

Hello Experts, I was wondering if the R, Rfree, RMSD for bonds and angles calculated by polygon plug in in PHENIX GUI using the cif file pdb file deposited in protein structure database would be the same as reported in database/publication ? I apologize in advance if this is a PHENIX specific

Re: [ccp4bb] R and R free from CIF file deposited in PDB

Hi Mahesh, They will be close but not the same. RMSDs should be very close normally, but different treatment of hetero compounds (ligands and such), outliers and LINKs added during annotation may cause small deviations. The deviations in R-factors can be much larger for all sorts of reasons. The

[ccp4bb] off topic - Pharos vs. Typhoon imagers

Hi all, My apologies for the drastically off topic question. Does anyone have experiences, good or bad, that they feel would influence our decision to buy either a Pharos or Typhoon imager? I'm looking for a 3-laser imaging system. Although it will primarily be used for phosphoimaging of

Re: [ccp4bb] R and R free from CIF file deposited in PDB

Thanks Robbie I found what I was looking for in PDB_REDO. Thanks Mahesh On Fri, Oct 11, 2013 at 4:49 PM, Robbie Joosten robbie_joos...@hotmail.comwrote: Hi Mahesh, They will be close but not the same. RMSDs should be very close normally, but different treatment of hetero compounds
