[ccp4bb] Optimisation of weights

2011-10-13 Thread kavya
Dear users, Can the optimization of the X-ray weighing factor and B-factor (overall wt) as mentioned in the paper Acta Cryst. (2007). D63, 1274–1281 by Dr.Ian Tickel, be used for the refinement of the data sets beyond the resolution range mentioned in the paper: 1.33 - 2.55 Ang? Also the structur

Hi Kavya The resolutions of the structures mentioned in the paper were only examples, the Rfree/-LLfree minimisation method (which are actually due to Axel Brunger & Gerard Bricogne respectively) does not depend on resolution. If the structures are already solved & refined, you don't need to do a

Respected Sir, For one of the structures that I did optimisation had values - (resolution of the data - 2.35Ang) Before optimization- (Bfactor weight=1.0, X-ray Weight - auto) R factor 0.2362 R free0.2924 -LLfree 7521.8 rmsBOND 0.0160 zBOND 0.660 After optimisation- (B-factor weight

Hi your X-ray weight of .08 seems very small, the optimal value is normally in the range 1 to 4 (I usually set it initially at the median, i.e. 2.5). But which weight keyword did you use "WEIGHT MATRIX .08" or "WEIGHT AUTO .08" (the latter is I think undocumented, so I'm guessing the first)? Anyw
