Re: [ccp4bb] X-ray crystallography defense questions

Hi Jessica, Your subject being membrane proteins, I might ask a question if your conclusions and claims are commensurate with the data quality but as Eleanor says, it really depends on what you are actually claiming and what kind of data you have. Cheers, Nukri On Tue, Jun 14, 2022 at 10:59 AM

[ccp4bb] Problem with restraint library in coot 0.9.8.3 (issue with ccp4 8.0?)

Hi, I had problems with restraint library in coot 0.9.8.1 when I updated to CCP4 8.0. I could not do any real space refinements because of this problem. Yesterday, I updated to CCP4 8.0.002 and coot was updated to 0.9.8.3EL. The problem in restraint library was still not solved. Will

Re: [ccp4bb] X-ray crystallography defense questions

Partly depends on what you have written! Faux pas would lead to a question.. but I would probably concentrate on what the structure has told you about your protein system. I would expect you to know a bit about the strengths and limitations of the technique. Eleanor On Tue, 14 Jun 2022 at 16:58,

Re: [ccp4bb] X-ray crystallography defense questions

Q1: who needs X-ray crystallography - we have cryoEM? Q2: what's the phase problem and is it still a problem (after so many years)? ;-) === Klaus Fütterer, PhD Reader in Structural Biology School of Biosciences LES College

[ccp4bb] X-ray crystallography defense questions

Hello CCP4! I am preparing for my PhD defense on X-ray crystallography of membrane proteins. So my ask from you folks is: *What X-ray crystallography questions would you ask in a PhD defense? * All questions - easy, tough, tricky - are welcome. Thank you kindly, Jessica Besaw
