Molecule and maps will not load into coot from Phenix 1.7.1-743
by Jobichen Chacko 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

The same old problem, I tried to add the coot path using preferences. Coot version result: COOT_PREFIX is /usr/local /usr/local/bin/coot-real --version 0.6.1 (revision 2740) [with guile 1.8.7 embedded] [with python 2.6.0 embedded] The coot opens just after phenix-refine job starts and after the job finishes. But no maps and models are loaded. Thanks. Jobi

"ATP" monomer in phenix_refine
by Zhang yu 28 Oct '11

28 Oct '11

Hi, I had a trouble of refining "ATP" in Phenix. I appreciate any help. ATP with tri-phosphate is in the 5' end of RNA chain. It is added to the RNA chain in coot as a monomer "ATP", and it could be connected to the downstream base after I changed the "_chem_comp.group" option to "RNA" in the cif file. But when I refine the model in Phenix, Phenix treated the "ATP' as a monomer and didn't connect it to the downstream base. I tried two ways to solve it 1. Add the the modified (chang the "_chem_comp.group" option to "RNA") cif file in phenix_refine, but Phenix doesn't recognize it. 2. In REEL, I found phenix has its own cif file for ATP, but the its header couldn't be edited. Any suggestions? Thanks. Yu

Problem avoiding real space refinement
by Jerome Nwachukwu 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

Hi: We noticed that in some of our refinements, real space refinement was performed even though we chose not to do this. I tried to opt out of real space refinement as follows: " refine { strategy = *individual_sites individual_sites_real_space rigid_body \ *individual_adp group_adp *tls *occupancies group_anomalous ..." however, the R-free is identical whether we select real space refinement or not, and the logfile shows " Validate: |--------START--------| |--------FINAL--------| residue map_cc 2mFo-DFc mFo-DFc map_cc 2mFo-DFc mFo-DFc "LYS A 18 " 0.9359 16.78 0.00 0.9107 17.60 0.00 "ARG A 19 " 0.9513 21.82 0.00 0.9470 20.97 -6.52 <<< "ARG A 26 " 0.9440 26.72 0.00 0.9474 27.33 -2.43 "ARG A 69 " 0.9685 31.36 0.00 0.9659 32.58 0.00 "GLN A 86 " 0.9681 23.57 -5.81 0.8850 19.29 -18.27 <<< "GLU A 89 " 0.9689 26.30 -4.43 0.8977 23.67 -11.59 <<< "LYS A 93 " 0.9746 25.19 0.00 0.9682 26.47 2.90 ... " and suggesting that real space refinement was performed. Is there a way to correct this, or to ensure that real space refinement is not performed during refinement? Thank you, -Jerome Jerome C.

problem to add D atom on carbonyl group (enol) as alternate conformation
by Maxime Cuypers 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

Dear all, i have a problem that i block on for quite a while. i need to add a D atom on carbonyl group (enol) as alternate conformation to a main chain protein amide group to refine with phenix.refine. It is not something that the program phenix.reduce can perdeuterate as it is an unusual position. it actually perdeuterates all the rest of the protein successfully. Does anyone have an idea how to proceed? i tried so far to rename the residue and give .cif restraints generated with readyset for the new tautomer. phenix seemed to recognised it but it failed due to the fact it does not recognise the residue as being a residue to link to the other residues and bounds bounce off. A friend told me a cif_link was the problem. Then i tried to apply cif_modification in a parameter file with the corresponding .cif file as explained briefly on: http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/refinement.htm#anch88 it does not solve the problem. the link between the new tautomer residue and the rest of the residues does not occur in refinement. Thanks for your help in advance. i am getting deseperate. Maxime

exploring the conformational space of sidechains
by Francois Berenger 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

Hello, Is there a way to do this with Phenix? I.e., from a given model, obtain models with different but also reasonable sidechains conformations. N.b.: I don't have X-ray data so I am looking for a geometric thing, and I'm OK if the model's backbone undergoes some small movement because of the sidechains having moved. Thanks a lot, F.

COOT not "connected" to PHENIX
by Yuri 25 Oct '11

25 Oct '11

Hello everyone, I am running 1.7.2-869 and coot 0.6.2 By telling phenix where hte path is, I can get it to launch from any phenix job tab. However in one of my machines, even though COOT launches through phenix it is not connected to it which does not allow me to look at clashes when building in coot- a very useful feature may I add!!! In one of my RHEL5 machines it is working nicely, and I dont see any obvious differences between the working and the non-working one. Any ideas? Thank you much -- Yuri Pompeu
