Hello Eleanor, We tried to follow your suggestion. The atoms to be linked were 1.46A apart in the input pdb model and we ran 10 cycles of refinement in Refmac with the "make link between" option chosen in either "defined in the file or residues are close". After the refinement we saw the

What does refmac do if you feed it the coordinates with side chains close enough to bond? In some cases it makes a full link dictionary with bonds angles planes etc. But can coot read such a dictionary entry? On Mon, 4 Nov 2019 at 17:06, Pavel Mader wrote: > Hi Paul, > > thank you for your

Dear Michael The Rmerge in the strong intensity bin of 0.079 is untypically high it seems to me. Were the diffraction images underexposed? Best wishes John Emeritus Professor of Chemistry John R Helliwell DSc_Physics > On 3 Nov 2019, at 23:19, Michael Jarva wrote: > >  > Hi CCP4BB, > >

Dear all, indeed, crysalis can import multiple image formats. I was having trouble with finding a dummy parameter file that would allow me to import my dataset. Once this was done, a real parameter file was created with the info from my dataset's image headers. Thank you very much for your

Hi Everybody, I am also interested in this, but the current version of CrystalisPro that we have does not read HDF5 data files from EIGER detectors. Currently we convert to CBF, but Crystalis still has issues… Does anybody have a sure-fire script to convert HDF5 to Esperanto? Cheers, Bill

The current version of CrysalisPro will directly import several image formats, or you can convert images to Esperanto format to import. The latter is a bit clumsy but does work. __ Roger Rowlett On Mon, Nov 4, 2019, 9:54 AM Almudena Ponce Salvatierra < maps.fa...@gmail.com>

Hi Jacob, An additional technique to identify sodium is microPIXE, which can be used for elemental mapping. I'm not sure if the sulfur signal would be strong enough to be quantitative. A ref: https://www.cell.com/structure/pdf/S0969-2126(00)88335-5.pdf Hope that helps, Sarah Sarah EJ Bowman,

My first check would be to inspect the data processing plots - Wilson Plot? Is it normal? predicted B factor of 8 - why? Then the plot from refmac and v resolution? Is there a scaling abnormality? B of 8 is surprisingly low for that resolution but maybe the crystals just did not have enough
