[ccp4bb] Vacancy for a Scientific Programmer Bioimaging & EMPIAR at PDBe

Hi all, We are looking to recruit an experienced and motivated "Scientific Programmer Bioimaging & EMPIAR" to join the Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe) team at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) located on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus near Cambridge in the UK. PDBe has recentl

[ccp4bb] Graphics cards for Coot, Pymol, Chimera on MacBook Pro Laptop

Hello, I would like to buy a MacBook Pro laptop that will allow me among others to solve structures, build models and visualize electron density maps using Pymol, Coot or Chimera. I have the choice between between Intel Iris Pro (5200 series) and Intel Iris Pro + Nvidia GT 750M for the graphics

[ccp4bb] Fwd: Structure with high B-factor

Hi All, I solved a structure using molecular replacement (Phaser) and the current R-factor and R-free is 0.2 and 0.25. The electron density looks great for residues and the ligand, however, the issue is with the B-values. The average B-value is 110 at this stage of refinement and I could not bring

[ccp4bb] OS X yosemite

Hi, I am thinking of upgrading the os on my mac to Yosemite. Are there any known issues for crystallographic software that I should pay attention to? Thanks, Mirek

Re: [ccp4bb] Graphics cards for Coot, Pymol, Chimera on MacBook Pro Laptop

Hi Marc, I have an Intel Iris Pro graphics chip on a Late 2013 MacBook Pro which works impressively well with all these programs, even on a 15 inch Retina display. I don’t know if the Nvidia one is better though... Bonne chance, Mark > On 17 Mar 2015, at 16:12, Marc Graille

Re: [ccp4bb] OS X yosemite

Hi Mirek: I haven’t encountered anything (CCP4, phenix, coot. pymol, etc) that doesn’t work, but also haven’t found a single compelling advantage (or even a non-compelling advantage) to upgrading. You get to see more of the spinning beachball of death while waiting for file dialog boxes to mat

HI Mirek, You may wanna to check for codes using libpng12.0.dylib. This you have to get from other sources. Best Andy Anindito Sen. Ph.D Scientist & Application Specialist in Biological Sciences JEOL LTD. 13F, Ohtemachi Nomura Bldg 2-1-1 Ohtemachi Chiyoda-Ku. Tokyo, Japan Tel: +81-3-626

Re: [ccp4bb] Graphics cards for Coot, Pymol, Chimera on MacBook Pro Laptop

Hello Marc, obvious differences between card are memory bandwidth, intel 13 GB/sec vs. nvidia 29 GB/s, the texture rate, 2 GTexel/s vs. 31 GTexel/s, and pixel rate, 0.5 GPix/s vs. 15.5 GPix/s. Some of these values result because of graphics memory differences. There is no difference in energy
