Hi all, Is anyone still using "allsvn" from the phenix_regression repository? If not, we'll just delete it next Friday (10/27) since it's hopelessly out of date. The functionality has been superseded by bootstrap.py. Thanks! -- Billy K.

SHELX sites to use in Phenix.
by Mahmudul Hasan 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Dear All, I am trying to solve a structure using Phenix with very low anomalous signal. After several trials it seems like the signal from Manganese is not enough to solve this protein structure. Reading information that SHELX is good in finding sites from low molecular weight molecules (e.g. S, etc.), I tried the online version of SHELX in CCP4 to find the sites. Now I would like use these sites found by SHELX to see if that help to solve the structure. My question is, what is the best way to include extra sites besides the program Autosol find itself? Your valuable suggestions will help me a lot to get going with my structure solution effort. Best wishes, Mahmudul Lund Sweden

Model_vs_data speed
by Eric Williams 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

I'm having a devil of a time getting model_vs_data to run in a timely fashion. Running the latest stable Linux build on Ubuntu 14.04 takes on the order of 3 minutes per structure. That wouldn't be so bad if I weren't trying to run it on every entry in the PDB. Is it just a limitation of Python? SFCheck, which I think is written mostly in FORTRAN, runs in a few seconds. Any help anyone could offer would be appreciated. Thanks. :) Eric

Running Phaser with a already placed solution from a previous job
by vincent Chaptal 05 Oct '17

05 Oct '17

Dear everyone, this sounds trivial but I somehow can't make it work so I would appreciate any pointer. I have placed a component using phaser and would like to expand my search using this already placed component as partial solution. I open the full-featured interface of phaser in the GUI and select the box "Use partial solution from previous job" and select the job (nothing seems to happen there). I define my ensembles with ensemble_1 as "fixed partial solution" and ensemble_2 the one to search for. I then get the error message that "ense_1 from previous job is not specified on the current ensemble tab". Using the info button I see that "It is best to do this by modifying the configuration of the GUI from the previous Phaser run instead of starting from scratch, because the stored solutions do not contain the definitions of the search ensembles" but I don't understand what is asked for me to do here. When I restore the previous job, I can't see how I can start a new search from there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Vincent I'm using phenix 1.12-2829. -- Vincent Chaptal, PhD Institut de Biologie et Chimie des Protéines Drug Resistance and Membrane Proteins Laboratory 7 passage du Vercors 69007 LYON FRANCE +33 4 37 65 29 01 http://www.ibcp.fr

map model correlations in real_space_refine
by Daniel Larsson 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

In version 1.12, what does the new map correlation numbers CC_mask, CC_volume and CC_peak in the log mean? How do they relate to the old "Map CC (whole unit cell)" and "Map CC (around atoms)" values (which in my opinion are more intuitive/descriptive and very useful numbers and I don't understand why they are no longer written to the log). Regards, Daniel
