Postdoctoral position in drug discovery An opening is available in the drug discovery laboratory of Dr. Stephen Fesik for a post-doc in the field of protein x-ray crystallography. Responsibilities will include protein production, fragment screening by NMR, and all aspects of x-ray crystallography including preparation of protein-ligand complexes, crystallization, home/synchrotron data collection, and structure determination. Additional experience in molecular biology including construct design, cloning, site-directed mutagenesis and modeling is a plus. The ideal candidate should be self-motivated and be able to communicate efficiently in a highly collaborative environment. Please send cv to jason.phan(a)Vanderbilt.Edu<mailto:[email protected]> The Vanderbilt campus is located in Nashville Tennessee.

Phenix secondary structure restraints bug
by Edwin Pozharski 03 Oct '22

03 Oct '22

When using phenix.secondary_structure_restraints (from command line, not sure if it's different in GUI) ss_by_chain flag is ignored when using default method (ksdssp, even if explicitly selected). Works fine when mmtbx_dssp is used though. Details: > phenix.secondary_structure_restraints model.pdb format=pdb ss_by_chain=False only produces intrachain beta sheets. > phenix.secondary_structure_restraints model.pdb format=pdb ss_by_chain=False search_method=mmtbx_dssp produces both intrachain and interchain beta-sheets. I am fairly certain this is not KSDSSP bug per se, since output of $PHENIX/build/ksdssp/exe/ksdssp model.pdb contains interchain beta-sheets. This is with 1.20.1-4487.
