Re: [ccp4bb] Clarification of MOLREP logfile

2008-10-05 Thread Rajan Pillai
Hi All, In the portion of the MOREP logfile where it lists the RF peaks, what does Rf and Rf/sigma mean? Is Rf - peak height and Rf/sigma - peak heights measured as deviations from mean? Looking into the CCP4 tutorial on MOLREP (http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/dist/examples/tutorial/html/mr-tutorial.html)

Hi All, I want to plot the rotation function that MOLREP uses. I cannot find any output of rotation function in the logfile or in moIrep.doc. I want to locate the peaks of the rotation function, that are shortlisted as solutions, which would help me in understanding the following problem. My

[ccp4bb] Resolution limit for Molecular Replacement

2008-09-16 Thread Rajan Pillai
Hi All, I read some literature for phasing by molecular replacement performed with reflections upto 3.5 Angstroms. Can anybody tell me why? I would prefer deleting low resolutions so as to reduce contribution from the solvent that might affect RF search and obtaining a solution. Your responses to

[ccp4bb] Ratio of Number of Reflections to Number of restrained Parameters

2008-08-28 Thread Rajan Pillai
Hi All, I was wondering if there is any program that calculates the ratio of number of reflections (observation) to number of restrained parameters. If not then how it can be calculated. The number of reflections is it number of unique reflections or number of the total reflections? Thanks,
