Re: [ccp4bb] New ligand 3-letter code

2015-06-14 Thread Martyn Symmons
One thing to beware of is that of course un-released structures may have the code that you choose - structures can be on hold for over a year (the rules say a year but in practice release is often slower) and any new ligands and codes with them. Ligand codes are assigned at deposition and the descr

Hi Colin, You can define an UNL (unknown ligand) in the blob. This is the standard name for such a compound. It becomes a bit messy in refinement in terms of restraints, but it does exactly what you want it to do: say you noticed the blob but couldn't figure out what it was. Cheers, Robbie >

Dear Colin, I believe people usually refer to it as "unidentified blob" when depositing/writing in these cases. But I wonder whether others may suggest better options. Best, D From: CCP4 bulletin board [CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK] on behalf of Colin Levy [c.

[ccp4bb] Residual density feature

2015-06-14 Thread Colin Levy
Dear all, I am currently working on a structure that contains a residual density feature located within the active site. Due to a combination of factors including limited occupancy, modest resolution, twinning etc it has not been possible to unambiguously identify this feature despite fairly ex
