2019-07-11 Thread Herman . Schreuder
Dear Marina, Just an observation from my side: if you are able to process your data in P622, there must be some 2-fold perpendicular to l, which would most likely be a non-crystallographic or a twinning axis. Is there a NCS 2-fold in the P321 data set you solved? If so, is it perpendicular to l

Dear Mike and Andrew, I've since updated to a later version of ccp4 (7.0.076) and now have the XMLOUT tags specified automatically. Woops! Thanks for that error log Andrew - I had a look at the aimless.script file to see how that filename was generated, and looked up the command on the CCP4 de

Hello Marina, In short: at first I'd build the model and refine it with the untwinned P3(2)21 data set until convergence. Then, I'd process all other data sets (including the twinned ones) in that space group as well. If using XDS, I'd use the XDS_ASCII.HKL of the untwinned data set as REFEREN

Dear Mike and Helen, As I understand it, the XML is only written when POINTLESS/AIMLESS are run through the CCP4 GUI and the command comes from the GUI script, so there is no way you can turn this off from POINTLESS itself. However, if you use the “Run&View com file” option from CCP4i GUI, you

Dear Mike, No problem! Happy to provide suggestions, though I'd prefer to be addressed directly on here. Here's another suggestion, no promises. If you can provide more detail on the GUI input and the output log files, it would be easier to know why this is happening in the first place. Howeve

Are all the trigonal cells related? Eleanor If so, you can use your untwinned data set as a guide to pointless to make sure all others are in the same indexing system, assign all the spacegroups to P3221 Then just start refinement with the key word twin from your good model. Eleanor On Thu, 11 J

Hello everyone, I have the following problem: I have some really good data sets of about 1.6 A which could be processed in P 6 2 2 as well as in P 3 2 1. Intensity statistics tests indicate twinning (merohedral, twinning law: -h, -k, l, in P 3 2 1). But I did not find a good MR solution (R v

Dear Andrew, Thanks for your suggestion. Yes, you are right that the error is because .xml file is not being written. but not able to find the reasons...I checked...Disk space is free and have permission to write also. I could able to run Pointless, but not Aimless. Any other reason?? Thanks Mi

For some reason if your sulfur on cysteine becomes sulfide anion, you can model sodium/potassium. Distance seems to be optimum for S...Na contact. Since you do not see any anomalous signal, this is one possibility. I also see small blobs around which may resolve to be water molecules. Anthony
