Purpose

Purpose of the Resolve_ligand_identification task

The Resolve_ligand_identification task carries out fitting of a library of 200 most frequently observed ligands in the PDB to a given electron density map. The program also conducts the analysis and ranking of the ligand fitting results.

The current Resolve_ligand_identification task work with the ligand library provided with the Phenix program by default. It is also capable of fitting and ranking ligands in a custom PDB library provided by the users.

Usage

The Resolve_ligand_identification task can be run from the PHENIX GUI as a stand-alone strategy, or as a task in a multi-task strategy.

How the Resolve_ligand_identification task works:

The Resolve_ligand_identification task provides a graphical user interface allowing the user to select either (1) a datafile containing crystallographic structure factor information and a PDB file with a partial model of the structure without the ligand, or (2) an mtz file containing the information of an electron density map of the potential ligand to be identified.

The ligand fitting routine is done by RESOLVE as described in the LigandFit wizard documentation. The Resolve_ligand_identification task carries out this fitting process for a library of 200 most frequently observed ligands in the Protein Data Bank, ranks and analyzes the overall fitting results. The output of the task consists of a list of the best fitted ligands from the library. The task display provides options to view the top ranked ligand in Pymol with or without the electron density.

How to run the Resolve_ligand_identification task

An example 'ligand identification' strategy is located in the 'ligands' section in the Phenix strategy menu. Follow the directions and helps in the GUI.

What the Resolve_ligand_identification task needs to run:

The Resolve_ligand_identification task needs:

  • (1) a mtz file containing structure factors

  • (2) (optional), a PDB file with your protein model without ligand

    Output files from Resolve_ligand_identification task

    When you run Resolve_ligand_identification task the output files will be in the directory you started Phenix:

  • A summary file of the sitting results of all ligands:
    overall_ligand_scores.log
    

  • A summary table listing the results of the top ranked ligands:
    topligand.txt
    

    The last column "Sequence in library' contains numbers '###' indicating the sequence number of the corresponding ligands. The final fitted ligand coordinates and all the log files are in the corresponding'###' files described below.

  • PDB files with the fitted ligands:
    resolve_ligand_###.pdb
    

  • A log file with the fitting of the ligand:
    resolve_fit_id_###.log
    

  • A log file with the fit of the ligand to the map:
    resolve_cc_id_###.log
    

  • Map coefficients for the map used for fitting:
    resolve_map.mtz
    

Examples

An example 'ligand identification' strategy is located in the 'ligands' section of the Phenix strategy menu.

Possible Problems

Specific limitations and problems:

  • The current Resolve_ligand_identification task work with the ligand library provided with the Phenix program by default. It is also capable of fitting and ranking ligands in a custom PDB library provided by the users. The ligand atoms in the user-provided PDBs should be under 'HETATM' records.

  • Other Resolve related limitations please refer to the document of the LigandFit wizard.
