RapiData at SSRL 2024
by Smith, Clyde 18 Nov '25

18 Nov '25

Hi everyone, Applications are now open for the 2024 edition of RapiData at SSRL. RapiData is a practical course in macromolecular X-ray diffraction data collection, data processing and structure solution. The aim of the RapiData course is to educate and train young scientists in data collection and processing methods at synchrotron beamlines, using state-of-the-art software and instrumentation. The course will be held at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) located on the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory campus in Menlo Park, CA, from April 29 to May 4, 2024. The course will comprise hands-on experiments at the SSRL beamlines, software tutorials, and lectures on the following topics: Specimen preparation, Data collection strategies, X-ray light sources, X-ray detectors, Data reduction, Structure solution by MAD, SAD and Molecular Replacement, Complementary methods (spectroscopy and small angle scattering) Please visit http://smb.slac.stanford.edu/news/rapidata/rapidata-2024/ and use the links on the "Application and Registration" page to apply for the course. The application deadline is January 31, 2024. Successful applicants will be notified early in February 2024 and invited to register and book accommodation at SLAC Stanford Guesthouse at that time. A limited amount of support funding may be available. Please direct questions to Silvia Russi (srussi(a)slac.stanford.edu) or Clyde Smith (csmith(a)slac.stanford.edu).

Refine pixel size for EM map?
by Oliver Clarke 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

Hi, I remember asking about this some time ago, but I am not sure if it was ever implemented. Is there a way to refine just pixel size for an EM map in phenix.real_space refine (or another phenix utility)? Even just automatically rigid-body fitting a crystal structure and calculating the pixel size with max correlation would be handy. We do this at the moment using Chimera/ChimeraX, but an automated way to do it in phenix would be handy. In the absence of a crystal structure, I wonder if directly refining pixel size during real space refinement would be possible/reasonable at higher resolution (<2Å)? Cheers Oli

Phenix LigandFit RSCC calculation questions
by Theo Teng 29 Jul '25

29 Jul '25

Dear Phenix developers, I hope this message finds you well. We had two specific questions about how the real-space correlation coefficient (RSCC) is computed when using Phenix.LigandFit: 1. What radius is used around the ligand or search center when calculating the RSCC during ligand fitting? Is this radius fixed or adaptive? 2. Which CCTBX function(s) underlie the RSCC calculation used in LigandFit? We aim to compare the placements from LigandFit to other ligand placement methods, and your response would be appreciated.

The remedy would be to delete all hydrogens from the structure before the refinement (or refine with hydrogens added everywhere). this is an interesting observation. MolProbity always adds all H to compute clashscore -- one can't compute clashscore without H present. I suspect having H on ligands only triggers it to 'think' that H are already present, and it computes clashscore without adding H to everything else. Could you please send me the file off list (the one that has H only on the ligand)? I think we better investigate this.. >> I'm happy to join the forum!

Note, clashscore=0 is not the goal because clashscore does not account for non-standard links and for example, can count as a severe clash atoms involved into nonstandard links, and similar. In Phenix Comprehensive Validation, go over the table of clashes, they are sorted, worst first, and check and try to address top few worst offenders.

Structure with high clashscore
by JEROME JOHNSON 22 Jul '25

22 Jul '25

Hello all, I'm happy to join the forum! I have a problem with clashscores and would be grateful for support. I have diffraction data for a 3HP-CoA Synthetase from N. maritimus resolved to 2.7 Angstroms. For MD, I used an alphafold structure (as I understand commonly results in high clashscore values) and after numerous rounds of refinement, the clashscore remains high at 11. I recently tried using gromacs to energy minimize and got values of 5 and 3 (according to molprobity), but after refinement these values immediately jumped back up to ~30. I wondered if you could describe the best way to reduce these? Attached is my latest round of refinement should you wish to take a look! Best, Jerome

Syntax help: phenix.pdb_tools to remove selected bases from file
by Vorländer,Matthias Kopano 21 Jul '25

Hi everyone, I am trying to truncate an RNA chain to backbone only using phenix.pdb tools with this command: phenix.pdbtools input.cif remove="(chain IN and not (phosphate or ribose)" I get: AtomSelectionError: RuntimeError: Atom selection syntax error at word "phosphate". Atom selection string leading to error: (chain IN and not (phosphate or ribose) Based on https://phenix-online.org/documentation/reference/atom_selections.html<https://phenix-online.org/documentation/reference/atom_selections.htmlI> I thought “phosphate” and “ribose” should be valid selection key words, but can’t figure out what I am doing wrong and would appreciate your help : ) Thanks in advance and best wishes, Matthias

smaller cell volume for accommodating protein complex & no MR solution even very similar template
by 陈成 11 Jul '25

11 Jul '25

Dear PHENIXBB people, I have been working on several data sets collected from crystals grown in co-crystallization trials containing a small molecule and Calprotectin, a heterologous protein dimer comprised of two polypeptides with around 90 and 120 amino acids respectively. The crystallographic structure of Calprotectin complexed with a 18-aa peptide have been deposited in RCSB database under PDB entry 7QUV, with cell parameters a = b = 50.8, c = 148.8 in the P 32 2 1 space group. On the contrast, the bunches of data sets I collected give cell parameters a = b = 38.3, c = 196.3 in the P 6 2 2 space group when an oscilliation angle of 0.5 degree was used or cell parameters a = b = 38.2, c = 149.0 in the P 6 2 2 space group when an oscilliation angle of 0.2 degree was used. In either cases, Matthews_coef analysis would suggest that the crystal cell cannot accommodate the whole Calprotectin complex. I had used each single protein of Calprotectin as the search template for MR, but failed as well. Though Phenix.xtriage suggest nothing wrong with the data sets, however, considering that the two polypeptide conprising Calprotectin is structurally similar, I had also tried indexing the data sets under space group spanning P2, P3 apart from P622 and then run MR by a thorough combination of each data sets and different template choices, which, in opposition to what was expected, still gave no reliable MR solution. It's noteworthy that the diffraction pattern of my crytals seemingly showed that multi-crystal problem or other intrinsic growth defects might be underconsidered. In fact, I've been encountering the above crystallographic situation for 3 times recently, which all bear the following characteristics: (1) cell volume is far smaller than expected for containing targeted macromolecules (protein/DNA) that is used for crystallization. (2) no MR solution is achieved though MR template is extremely and sometimes 100% similar. (3) growth defects such as multi-crystal or fibrous diffraction problems possibly exist. Hopefully someone may have dealt with such issues before. Any suggestions is welcomed! Sincerely Chen PS: This message is also posted on CCP4BB.

01 Jul '25

Dear Colleagues, We are looking for a postdoctoral candidate at Lawrence Berkeley Lab (California, US) to work on an exciting project developing computational methods for cryo-electron microscopy. You will develop mathematical approaches and computational algorithms to investigate protein conformational states from cryo-EM experiments, including single-particle imaging and cellular tomography. Goals include developing a pipeline for automated atomic modeling of heterogeneous structures from cryo-EM data using Phenix model building tools and developing methods for dealing with incomplete data and structure completion. You will work with a data analysis team for image analysis and the Phenix team for model building methods. You can start as early as August 1, 2025. Full details of the position, description of job requirements are in this link: https://jobs.lbl.gov/jobs/computational-postdoctoral-fellow-cryo-em-7131 Feel free to pass on to anyone you think might be interested.
