Autobuild peptide?
by ckielkop 02 Aug '06

02 Aug '06

Hi, We have a molecular replacement RNA structure with a bound peptide. I'd like phenix autobuild the peptide, because only a portion of it is bound and we'd like an unbiased, silicon opinion about what that portion is. It's not clear to me how to proceed with this in phenix- we have a beautiful electron density map from CNS, coordinates for the RNA portion, and peptide sequence. Thanks for any guidance! -- Clara L.

Problems running demo

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all, Sorry if this kind of problems have been posted before, I tried unsuccessfully to find a relevant FAQ. I'm new to Phenix, so I thought it would be a good idea to run the GUI demo first. I installed, set up the programs and copied the data in a directory and did as instructed in the demonstration sequence page. I find two problems: 1. When I call the GUI I don't see the Tasks tab (well, perhaps not a problem, just a misunderstanding) 2. After I load the AutoSol wizard and press "Continue" the wizard doesn't turn to green. Instead, it remains blue and get this message in the console: (...)

The easiest way is to run the AutoBuild wizard. It will do modelbuilding and density modification for you.

Re: [phenixbb] s_annealing within AutoBUILD

Tom, I know during the first build cycle, it worked. Later on, I noticed that it reset s_annealing to false again, as you probably anticipated. I will make the additional changes in the morning and let you know how it goes. Thanks again! Cheers, Nick -----Original Message----- From: "Thomas C.

In testing this, I found there is one more thing to do to make the simulated annealing actually happen: Edit the file $PHENIX/phenix/phenix/autosol/run_phenix_refine.py at line 144 from self.params.refinement.simulated_annealing.do_simulated_annealing=True to: self.params.refinement.main.simulated_annealing=True (don't change the indentation or anything, just the text). Ralf: can you possibly verify that this is the correct current syntax? This will in fact do SA refinement once per build cycle, just as you originally asked for.

s_annealing within AutoBUILD
by Noinaj 14 Jul '06

14 Jul '06

Hi, I am running AUTOBUILD on a friend's structure, and noticed in the log file the s_annealing parameter set to false. Is it possible to set this parameter to true when doing an AUTOBUILD run, say to do s_a after each build cycle? I have read that I can use phenix.refine at the command line to run s_annealing, but didn't know if I could modify this option within the wizards. I checked out the list of parameters which I am allowed to change, but didn't see s_anneal anywhere. Thanks for all replies in advance!

sa

Hi again Nick, I should add that the SA option applies (unfortunately) to all refinements, there is no option at present to only do SA once per cycle as you were looking for.

When that is done, you should be okai. Regarding 'proper' use of the wizard/gui, try of of the examples in the example directory. Running those shuold give you a feeling of what needs to be done. The examples should work. Most parameter fields have an associated info string that explains briefly what is expected. HTH Peter

How to use phenix for SAD data
by pramod＠cdfd.org.in 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Hi all i am using the Phenix-GUI first time ,for solving the sad data. I processed my raw data with the mosflm.Further output of the mosflm were used for getting other information or working through this data.so, i started with the strteiges of solve through mad. after setinmg up all the anamolous parameters ,this is always displaying red in the very first in the setup anamolous data gui with the information that format error.i used the format ccp4 unmerged i.e the direct output of the mosflm after integration.i also used the conversion of mtz file into hkl through ccp4 scaling and merging intensities-in which one option i used is the get output as unmerged intensities but, that also didnot worked. suggestions will be appreciated and also i want the deatiled information about how to use the phenix gui properly. with regards Pramod Kumar Junior Research Fellow c/o-Dr.Shekher C Mande Center for DNA Fingerprinting and Diognostics ECIL road Nacharam Hyderabad-76 -
