[ccp4bb] Detwin program

2015-01-28 Thread Sasha Pausch
Dear CCP4bb, I am facing a problem in generating .mtz output file from DETWIN program in CCP4 (version 6.5). Program is finishing successfully with log file but not mtz file. Please suggest me a way out! Thanks in advance, -- Regards, Sasha Pausch

[ccp4bb] ligand bonds (AlF3) breaking up after refinement in refmac

2015-01-28 Thread ansuman biswas
Dear All, I checked the Mg2+ B factor, and it was around 22. So, were the values for F atoms. For AlF3, it was more than 50 for Al and more than 40 for F atoms. I will take care about the occupancy. I hope that will fix the small negative density. When I inserted MgF in COOT using the code M

Re: [ccp4bb] PHASER MR solution

2015-01-28 Thread Randy Read
Hi all, Actually, what I think has happened here is that Phaser has limited the resolution to what it estimated was needed to get a clear enough solution, and then the final refinement was carried out with all the data. The signal-to-noise is lower with limited data, but it’s a price that seem

Hi Jeorge - Something seems to have changed for the worse in this MR run. In your earlier posting, where you failed to find a solution in P222, your log file had solutions with RFZ=23.4, generally a clear indication of a correct rotation function solution. (You didn't include this log file

2015-01-28 Thread Roger Rowlett
The Z-values may be marginal, but of course you should inspect the solution in Coot to see if the electron density makes sense, and the packing of the protein molecules in the unit cell (look at symmetry mates) is sensible. If this passes the sniff test, then you should clean up your model (mak

Re: [ccp4bb] Sharp: Solomon density modification step

2015-01-28 Thread Francis Reyes
Also, check the quality of the map going into density modification (by either solomon or DM) and whether the output solvent mask is consistent with your structure. Depending on the quality of the experimental phases, you can generally see the outline of the molecule and see NCS in your experimen

Hi everyone, Many Thanks for your suggestions !! I checked for the everything related to the components i am using : No contamination, not very old, no PEGs etc. And then i followed the way Markov and Prem suggested !! For a trial set up i just et up 10 different concentration variations of my pre
