Re: [ccp4bb] Perfect twins.

2008-08-23 Thread James Irving
Hi Francis, Detwinning of perfectly twinned data is done with reference to Fcalc (determined from from the model): it is not possible to arithmetically deconvolute the contribution of the twin domains to the perfectly twinned reflection data. Because your model is incomplete you will be introduci

You can perform a multiple structural alignment using MUSTANG ( http://www.bx.psu.edu/arun/research/mustang/), which draws upon some of the underpinnings of the DALI approach. James

Hi Siva, SFCHECK (part of CCP4i) has a very handy option for this. From the command line: % mkdir mydir % sfcheck -f mydata.mtz -po mydir/ -out u -r % gv mydir/sfcheck_.ps (or ghostscript/xpsview/whatever postscript viewer you have) This will generate a number of output files, includin

Hi Fred, From memory, this can occur due to long bond lengths in the model being interpreted as chain breaks, try editing the generate.inp or generate_easy.inp script and increase the value for "break_cutoff": {* cutoff distance in Angstroms for identification of breaks *} {* the default of 2

Re: [ccp4bb] how many stuck datasets are actually twinned?

2007-02-22 Thread James Irving
I guess the point is to "know thy data", to avoid problems down the track: a statistical test for twinning forms one of a battery of tests which can be performed independently of a coordinate set (Matthews coefficient, self-RF, etc.), and with relative ease. Importantly, in the case of partial

th a partial twin fraction close to 0.5 or perfectly twinned should not be detwinned, use SHELX or CNS to refine against the twinned data instead. HTH, James -- Dr. James Irving NH&MRC C.J. Martin Fellow Division of Structural Biology Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics Oxford University R

Hi Jenny, As you have a trigonal/hexagonal spacegroup, have you eliminated the possibility of twinning? This can create ghosts in the density... Cheers, James
