question about autosol
by crystallogrphy 22 Mar '10

22 Mar '10

Hi, When I run phenix.autosol with this scripts (phenix.autosol data=output-anomalous.sca input_phase_file=AutoMR_run_10_/MR.1.mtz input_phase_labels="F PHIC FOM" f_prime=-8.13 f_double_prime=5.61 kp-zntb.seq atom_type=Zn), the job is terminated by the error message. Does anyone know what I should do? I am using Phenix-1.5 version. Floating-point error (Python and libc call stacks above) This crash may be due to a problem in any imported Python module, including modules which are not part of the cctbx project. To disable the traps leading to this message, define these environment variables (e.g. assign the value 1): BOOST_ADAPTBX_FPE_DEFAULT BOOST_ADAPTBX_SIGNALS_DEFAULT This will NOT solve the problem, just mask it, but may allow you to proceed in case it is not critical.

help with geometry target weight
by Brown, Breann 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

I am currently refining a structure at 2.4A resolution. I would like to increase the geometry target weight during refinement, however when I decrease wxc_scale (to 0.25 or 0.1) there is no change in the bond deviations or R factors compared to refinement with the default wxc_scale. I noticed in the refinement logfile under XYZ refinement wc=0. This does not change when I change the wc value in the command line (wc=2.0 for example) as suggested in a previous email. I also see no change when I use the optimize_wxc=true command. Examples of the command line input and output log files are below. I am currently using version 1.6-289 and would appreciate any help in resolving this issue as it seems the geometry is not being properly weighted during refinement. Thanks, Breann Breann L.

Yes, Although the angle deviations seem ok to me, I'm concerned about the bond deviations... Yes, you can try two things: - increase the restraints strength by increasing the corresponding weight: from the command line: "wc=VALUE", where VALUE is a number somewhat larger than 1.0; from the GUI: Refinement settings -> All parameters -> Refinement target weights... -> Stereochemistry weight scale - Run automatic weight optimization (note, this may take a while to run): from the command line: use keyword: "optimize_wxc=true"; from the GUI: Refinement settings -> All parameters -> Refinement target weights... -> Optimize X-ray/stereochemistry weight Alternatively, you can send me your PDB and data file and I will tell you what exactly is not right and how to fix it.

program to display space group symmetry in three dimensions

Hi, I was looking around for programs that display space group symmetry information and could not find any but perhaps i am lost for valuable or relevant keywords. I found two references TABLES and CRYST, but are there other alternatives that are more recent, or that can run on more common hardware? TABLES: http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S0021889887086060 CRYST: http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S0021889889007168 -- Karthik Graduate student Biophysics, U-M

Gap between R and Rfree

Hi everyone, I recently got a diffraction data and am trying to refine it. The question is whatever I did the gap between R and Rfree stay far away: .2140/.2982 around 2.5 A resolution. (water added and isotropic(individual_adp) and so on). Although I am redoing with many different approaches, if anyone can give me any comments or suggestions, it would be helpful. Thanks in advance, Young-Jin

Low resolution structure
by Kendall Nettles 13 Mar '10

13 Mar '10

I have a few questions related to a 3.5 angstrom structure. I have one helix that I am having trouble placing accurately. It does have a cysteine that disulfide bonds with the same residue in a symmetry related molecule. Can I restrain this distance during a rigid body refinement of the helix? How do I do this? What kind of parameters would be appropriate for the disulfide? My second question is whether someone can suggest appropriate distance_ideal, sigma, and slack for hydrogen bond restraints for a helix? Also, I have a 2 angstrom structure of this part of the complex for reference. Thanks! Kendall Nettles
