[ccp4bb] map rotation

2019-03-20 Thread Jan Abendroth
Hi all, this should be easy, scripting the rotation of a map. Purpose for this is: Superimpose several structures of the same protein that crystallized in different space groups, and then drag the maps along. As a simple test, I took a dimeric protein and try to superimpose molecule B along with

THE EMERGING ROLE OF CRYO-ELECTRON MICROSCOPY IN DRUG DISCOVERY This webcast looks at the emerging role of cryo-EM in drug discovery and its application to resolve the structure of challenging targets, such as GPCRs. Experts will share their success in cryo-EM enabled structure-based drug design

[ccp4bb] ABP1 has no known function

Dear all, Many people know much more about the plant hormone auxin than I do, but I believe I am right in saying that, despite Romana Gáborová's current PDBe highlight on auxin binding protein 1 (ABP1) at https://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/about/news/growth, there is currently no valid evidence that

I’d be with you, Graeme, as a good compromise between merged data and raw diffraction images. Though it does seem to be getting more practical to make image data available… Randy - Randy J. Read Department of Haematology, University of Cambridge Cambridge Institute for Medical Research

Wouldn't it be a good idea if the pdb required that data deposition provide h k l I+ SIGI+ I- SIGI- ?? Even if the depositor has not exploited the anomalous signal, it may well be there sufficiently strongly to validate CYS or phosphates. I believe aata processing programs provide this

Hi Karthik, There are currently three epimers of inositol hexaphosphate in the PDB: I6P (one axial), IHP (the same, which shouldn't be allowed), KGN (two axial, next to each other). I could not find other configurations. Which restraint file for COOT/CCP4 are you referring to? It might need

Dear CCP4 community, We are working on a complex involving inositol hexaphoshpate. The structure of the ligand given in the coot monomer library has alternate phosphate groups attached to the ring carbon atoms at the equatorial configuration and axial configuration. We also examined the structure
