Nat, Thank you. I am still using dev-814. You probably have fixed it already. ill update when I am done running these jobs. -- Yuri Pompeu

Hello everyone, I cannot figure out why I keep getting this error. I dont see anything wrong with my PDB. I realize I realize I have breaks in my chain, as there are regions of unclear density as of now I am building in what I can see... Heres what the log says: ======== ================= Separating polymer chains into rigid bodies ================= (chain 'A' and segid ' ' and resseq 393:6) (chain 'B' and segid 'B ' and resseq 401:401) ================== Extract refinement strategy and selections ================= The error is initial RESSEQ index > final RESSEQ index. I do not understand why it is picking them this way It then halts at an error... Any Ideas?

R-merge and MOLREP
by Yuri 13 Jul '11

Ed and Nathaniel, Thank you for the input. I agree with Ed. The I/sigma values for this data set are well within accepted ranges... I believe the R-merge values are due to some inherent crystal property. They grew in very strange manner. -- Yuri Pompeu

R-merge and MOLREP
by Yuri 13 Jul '11

13 Jul '11

Hello everyone, I just collected some data on a new protein. It indexes in P3 and looks like I can scale it all the way to P 63 2 2 . My questions are: 1-I see a reasonable chi-square value 1.69 but r-merge 0.15 (0.49 at 2.75 A). It was 0.20 before I excluded some bad frames. I thought this R value is a bit high... Is it? Mosaicty was around 1.00. 2- My search model has an identity of around 40%. I tried MOLREP. Seems I got a solution LLG=486 PAK=10 TFZ ~30 RFZ ~20. My R-free before any refinement is 0.54. Two questions here, a) I think I only fully understand the meaning of LLG, what about PAK and both Z-values? b)is this R-free acceptable or is it also a little high? Thank you for any input

Summer X-rays at the NSLS
by Robert Sweet 12 Jul '11

Summer X-rays at the NSLS The PXRR operates five beamlines at the NSLS: http://www.px.nsls.bnl.gov/. Two of these are the undulator beamlines X25 and X29. The dipole beamlines X12-B and X12-C are available, and are very effective for conventional crystallography. There are efficient ALS-Style Automounters available -- 8400 crystals mounted in the last 12 months. Also, at beamline X26-C, we have a unique-in-the-US station for combined x-ray diffraction and single-crystal optical spectroscopies: http://www.px.nsls.bnl.gov/x26c/x26c_info.html Notice also our world-leading Mail-In crystallography program: http://www.px.nsls.bnl.gov/Mailin.html You may request access to any of these here: http://www.px.nsls.bnl.gov/beamtime_requests.html, and can look at the schedules for all five here: http://www.px.nsls.bnl.gov/ Stay tuned for the announcement in December of RapiData, our annual course in rapid data collection and structure solving: http://www.bnl.gov/rapidata/ Bob Sweet ========================================================================= Robert M.

significant figures in reporting Rfree
by Jennifer Weinreich 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

Hi. I am wondering what is the common practice with respect to how many significant figures should be used for reporting Rfree at different resolution? Should we always use all 4 figures that are reported by the program? Thank you, Jenn

Elbow and smiles to make CO coordinates
by Yarrow Madrona 08 Jul '11

08 Jul '11

Hi, I am trying to use Elbow and smiles to generate carbon monoxide coordinates. I thought it would be easy enough. I made two waters in coot and changed the the oxygens to C and O and set the distance around 1.13 angstrom. Saved these coordinates as a PDB. I then used this in Elbow but it gives me a methyl group. Not sure what is going on. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you! -Yarrow -- Yarrow Madrona Graduate Student Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Dept.
