Windows installer now available
by Paul Adams 13 Apr '12

13 Apr '12

Dear Colleagues, as a result of some very hard work by several members of the Phenix Team, especially Nat Echols, I'm happy to report that we now have an experimental Windows installer for Phenix available for testing in the latest nightly builds. This includes most of the Phenix components, including the GUI, and should run on Windows XP or newer. Coot and PyMOL integration is supported if these are installed. Details are available here: http://www.phenix-online.org/platforms/windows.html We encourage anyone using this to submit the automatic bug reports, or email us concerning any other problems at bugs(a)phenix-online.org. An official, fully supported Windows installer, including 64-bit version, will be available later this year.

amazing good statistics
by Christian Roth 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Dear Phenix people, is there a major improvement in the algorithm? I have refined a 2.2 Ang. room temperature dataset with very good data statistics (I think) Rmerge 3.7%(8.9%) completeness 96%(92%) I/sigI 16,6(8,8) in parentheses are the values for the highest resolution shell. After refinement I have a R/Rfree of 0.1294/0.1670. In some shells there are values close to 0.100 and in the lowest shell Rfree is lower than Rwork. The quality of the data are really quite good, what is probably one of the reasons, but I am close or below to the border of the Range of R values in the pdb. Great for me, but I wanna be sure that it is really true. It was a MolRep with a close homolog, but I run a torsion angle sim annealing to decouple R/Rfree and the MolRep was done with an poly-Ala model to prevent too much model bias. Best Regards Christian

Limit Ramachandran restrain to certain region
by Nian Huang 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Dear all, Is it possible to limit Ramachandran restrain to specified residues in phenix.refine? I have a couple of loops with very poor density. The refinement process always made some residues fall out of ramachandran plot no matter how I tightened the weight and adjusted the residues back. Because the diffraction is about 2.3 A, I don't want the ramachandran restrain to impact the rest of structure. Thanks. Nian Huang

modelling a flexible peptide
by intekhab alam 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hi All I have a 3.0A dataset (SG P1211) of a protein-protein complex having mol.wt 60 and 8 Kda respectively. Molecular repalcement (60Kda protein as template) with Phaser gave a solution with 6 molecules in ASU. A continuous density is also obersved near two different chains which i consider as the second protein. I refined the density using a poly Alanine model but still i can't recognise the side chains confidently for modelling. Considering the fact that the smaller protein partner is rich in lysine, arginine, Asp and Glutamate with only 3 tyr and 4 phe, i tried to modell fragments one by one but the B-factor of the segments are quite high (in the range of 110) what will be the best strategy to improve the map for modelling. regards -- INTEKHAB ALAM LABORATORY OF STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS KOREA UNIVERSITY, SEOUL

Exhaustive List of Phenix Commands
by Matthew J. Whitley 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hello all, I was wondering if somewhere, either on the web or in hardcopy, there is an exhaustive or nearly exhaustive list of Phenix commands. For example, from a Phenix BB thread earlier in the day I learned of the existence of the phenix.r_factor_statistics command for gaining insight into where your R/Rfree values place you in regard to structures of similar resolution. As I read more of the messages posted to the Phenix BB, I become aware of more and more nifty things that Phenix can do that I simply was not aware of, and I was wondering if some kind of master list of Phenix commands is available somewhere. Thanks to all the developers for making this amazing program available to the x-ray community. Thanks, Matthew --- Matthew J.

Creating dictionary restraints for a LINK
by Mario Sanches 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

I have a question regarding link dictionary generation. Nigel helped me with a molecule dictionary last week (thank you Nigel) so the molecule is refining well now. This molecule is covalently bound to on of the residues. I tried generating a dictionary that describes both the molecule and the link but so far phenix.refine is ignoring it. Again, the molecule itself refines very well but the link is not there. What is the best way to define it? Thank you very much. -- Mario Sanches Postdoctoral Researcher Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute Mount Sinai Hospital 600 University Ave Toronto - Ontario Canada M5G 1X5 http://ca.linkedin.com/in/mariosanches

labelit.index is too precise not to allow 0.000001 deg difference
by fukamitka＠chugai-pharm.co.jp 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Dear Phenix developers, I had a problem in indexing by labelit.index in phenix-1.7.3-928, getting the error below: InputFileError: Input error: All images must have same oscillation range (delta phi). My dataset was collected by inhouse R-axis with 0.8 deg oscillation. Image header values of oscillation range fluctuate between 0.799999 - 0.800004 degrees. When I specified two images whose delta phi angles were different, say 0.799999 and 0.800003, labelit.index stopped with the error above. I don't think a goniometer have such a precision, therefore I think line 249 in /phenix-1.7.3-928/labelit/command_line/imagefiles.py should be modified not to use == instead of similar_delta_phi() or something. 246 if False in [similar_wavelength(self.images[0],self.images[x]) for x in xrange(1,Nimages)]: 247 raise InputFileError("""All images must have similar wavelength.""") 248 249 if False in [self.images[0].deltaphi==self.images[x].deltaphi for x in xrange(1,Nimages)]: 250 raise InputFileError("""All images must have same oscillation range (delta phi).""")

F68, 366-376 doi:10.1107/S1744309112008421<http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S1744309112008421> Detection and analysis of unusual features in the structural model and structure-factor data of a birch pollen allergen B. Rupp<http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/citedin?search_on=name&author_name=Rupp,%20B.> Abstract: Physically improbable features in the model of the birch pollen structure Bet v 1d (PDB entry 3k78<http://pdb.pdb.bnl.gov/pdb-bin/opdbshort?3k78>) are faithfully reproduced in electron density generated with the deposited structure factors, but these structure factors themselves exhibit properties that are characteristic of data calculated from a simple model and are inconsistent with the data and error model obtained through experimental measurements. The refinement of the 3k78<http://pdb.pdb.bnl.gov/pdb-bin/opdbshort?3k78>model against these structure factors leads to an isomorphous structure different from the deposited model with an implausibly small R value (0.019). The abnormal refinement is compared with normal refinement of an isomorphous variant structure of Bet v 1l (PDB entry 1fm4<http://pdb.pdb.bnl.gov/pdb-bin/opdbshort?1fm4>). A variety of analytical tools, including the application of Diederichs plots, R plots and bulk-solvent analysis are discussed as promising aids in validation. The examination of the Bet v 1d structure also cautions against the practice of indicating poorly defined protein chain residues through zero occupancies. The recommendation to preserve diffraction images is amplified. ......................

Problems fitting NADH
by Phillip Steindel 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Dear all, I'm trying to fit a NADH into a 1.7 Å structure. LigandFit worked with just the three-letter code (NAI), however phenix.refine won't work with just the model. If I use eLBOW to create restraints, meanwhile, the ligand gets distorted during refinement (non-tetrahedral phosphates, mainly). I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to be generating these restraints- any help is appreciated. Thank you, Phillip Steindel Theobald Lab Department of Biochemistry Brandeis University

Re: [phenixbb] need help for crystallization
by Kevin Jin 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

My pleasure ! Since this may be help for other people, I also cc it to CCP4BBS. According to your email, I guess the buffer is phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. You can do a quick buffer exchange before crystallization. Since PO4 is a competitor in this case, I will also avoid PO4 and Cocodylate buffer from screen kits. Here is what you can do, 1. concentrate your protein using an amicro centrocon with 3KD cutoff. 2. Measure how much buffer has been spin down, then add equal amount of Tris with same pH back to the top. 3. Then, spin down again. 4. Repeat several times, 5 times may be good enough. 5. Most of Phosphate buffer should be removed. That's what I used before. Let me know if it works.

Dear Kay, You can control the distance for the atom separation/anisotropy in Phaser with the llgcomplete.clash input parameter. By default llgcomplete.clash is zero, which means Phaser will calculate a value based on the resolution. If a value is set this will override the default.

phaser_ep
by Kay Diederichs 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Dear all, is there a way to modify the decision constants in phaser_ep? Specifically, I want to refine against heavy-atom derivative with one strong site. The resolution of the data is 3.6A; the substructure (4 sites) was solved at 8A. Upon refinement, phaser finds two more sites at distances of ~3.5A to the strongest site. Furthermore, it finds two holes at distances of ~3.5A to the strongest site. Now I would like phaser to treat the site as anisotropic. However, the distances are beyond its decision constant (~2.54A), so it chooses to add two sites to my HA model, but they refine poorly. How is the decision constant calculated? Can I influence the calculation? I found nothing in the phaser wiki. Alternatively: how can I tell phaser_ep that it should refine a given input atom anisotropically? I tried to add a ANISOU line to the PDB file but the program seems to ignore it. thanks, Kay -- Kay Diederichs http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de email: Kay.Diederichs(a)uni-konstanz.de Tel +49 7531 88 4049 Fax 3183 Fachbereich Biologie, Universität Konstanz, Box M647, D-78457 Konstanz This e-mail is digitally signed.

reference model restraints now support multiple reference model files
by Jeff Headd 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hi PHENIX users, After numerous user requests, we've added support to phenix.refine for multiple reference model input files. If you are refining a complex and have reference models for individual components, you may now input as many files as necessary. A parameter file would include: refinement { reference_model { file = "reference_A.pdb" file = "reference_B.pdb" } } Chain matching is still carried out automatically, so simply specifying the file paths is usually enough for the restraints to be generated for refinement. Details of chain matches are printed in the .log file, as well as in the reference_model scope in the .eff file. If anyone has questions, please let me know. Thanks! Jeff

positive density around heavy metals
by Subhani Bandara 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hi everyone, I have refined a protein with a metal-chelate complex at 1.4 resolution and saw positive density around some metals that are on a two fold. I refined those chelator complexes with fixed occupancy to avoid the negative density seen around it as they are partially occupied. Also I had to avoid xyz refinement after fixing them on special position, to avoid moving away from two fold. I have attached a figure of one of those complexes. If I increase occupancy then it shows negative density. How can I get rid of this positive density. Thanks in advance for the help Subhani

merging in hires data in AutoBuild
by Desiree Ho-Chi Fong, Ms 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hello all, I am using PHENIX 1.7.3-928 and I am trying to merge a high resolution native data set with a MAD data set in AutoBuild. I have run AutoBuild through the GUI as well as on the command line. Here is the command I used: phenix.autobuild data=AutoSol_run_1_/exptl_fobs_phases_freeR_flags_1.mtz hires_file=hires.mtz model=AutoSol_run_1_/overall_best.pdb rebuld_in_place=True The data file, exptl_fobs_phases_freeR_flags.mtz from AutoBuild only includes data to the resolution of the MAD data set. The higher resolution native data was not incorporated into this mtz file. Looking at the log file, the hires data was merged with expel_fobs_phases_freeR_flags_1.mtz from AutoSol (with AutoBuild after) and followed by anisotropy correction. This was then used for density modification. However, the high resolution data was never included in the mtz file for refinement in AutoBuild. My understanding is that if hires data is specified in AutoBuild, the phases would be extended and included in map calculation as well as subsequent refinement. The output exptl_fobs_phases_freeR_flags.mtz from AutoBuild would also include the hires data for subsequent refinement. Is this correct? Thank you for your help. Desiree

R value difference in model vs data vs refinement
by Christian Roth 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

Dear all, I refined a structure in phenix quite good resolution (1.4 Ang.) After the last refinement I created the "table 1" to extract all data. Interestingly I got a warning due to small changes in the R values R/Rfree after Refinement. 15,46/18,16 Phenix modelvs.data gives me R/Rfree 15,34/18,07 Interestingly this is nearly exactly the value which I got after the first OHS scattering optimization from phenix R/Rfree 15,43/18,03 The differences are of course very small and negeligible, but I wonder why it happens. Esspecially taking into account that it was refined with phenix and in this case I would expect that both values match exactly. Thank you very much in advance Best Regards Christian

Hi phenix-bb'ers, Is there anyway to make phenix.mr_rosetta take disulphide bridges into account? It's a rather enormous restraint on conformational space after all (wait is that a constraint or restraint? I get confused). Cheers, Morten -- Morten K Grøftehauge, PhD Pohl Group Durham University

about readyset
by Ming 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Dear all, I was using ready set to get my pdb ready. It automatically built the ligand cif file from scratch too. And the phenix.refine was fine with the files from ready set. Then I tried another method in which I threw everything that phenix.refine needs, including pdb file, ligand cif file, ligand pdb file, mtz. And phenix.refine ran smoothly again. But the refinement results were different between these two ways. The R fac is 1% different. I think ready set is only making the phenix.refine easier by generating ligand and building H, but if I do all the work of ready set and prepare the files for phenix.refine. Aren't they supposed to give the same results back? Can anyone help me here? Thanks a lot. -- Ming

Partially reduced disulfides
by Christopher Wanty 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi, I have a structure that appears to have a combination of reduced and oxidised disulfides. >From previous reading on the board I've taken the strategy of dropping the disulfide detection cutoff to 0.1 then added back the disulfides as appropriate using restraints. The problem I now have is that for some of these cysteine pairs there are clearly oxidised and reduced positions in the density. Modelling altloc's for each of these works, but the occupancies do not refine as I expected; the altloc's involved in the disulfide I expected to have the same occupancy as their counterpart in the disulfide. To try to get these to match, I introduced occupancy constraint that look like: constrained_group { selection = (chain A and resseq 276 and altloc B) or (chain A and resseq 286 and altloc B) } But with that the sum of occupancies for altloc 276 (for example) is not adding to 1.00. My thought is that I need to change the occupancy constraints but I'm not sure how to make them do what I want. Any help/advice is appreciated.

Hydrogens
by Christopher Wanty 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hi all, I've been refining with riding hydrogens, and from what I've read hydrogen contribution should be included in Fo calculation automatically for maps. What I'm seeing after refinement is a lot of little bits of green in the difference density that look like they could be explained by hydrogens. I'm working at 1.4A, attached image gives an example and shows contours at 3 sigma for difference map. Is there a setting/parameter I need to adjust to get this to work properly?

building a peptide-like polymer with phenix.elbow
by Geoffrey Feld 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Greetings, I have a co-crystal structure of a protein bound to an interesting polymer -- poly-D-g-glutamic acid (poly glutamic acid with D chirality and gamma linked, rather than alpha linked). In the structure, I have density corresponding to different links, from 1 to 6 (so far). I'd like to build a ligand that has "residues" much like a polypeptide polymer so that I can refine each residue individually (hopefully in COOT). Up till now, I've been using SMILES to generate the different length polymers so I have pdbs and cif files, and then (painstakingly) modelling them into COOT, building restraints for refinement, etc. More recently, I used maestro to build a dimer that at least has the right atom labels you'd expect for a protein. However, I can't use phenix now to generate cif files because it is confused by the GLU. Is there a way to use phenix.elbow to make a multi-residue polymer? I'm also doing some monte carlo minimizations in macromodel to generate models of the various low energy states and would like to use them as building blocks, so an easy order-of-operations would be to generate the files in macromodel and feed them in via pdbs to phenix.elbow to generate cif restraints. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Geoff -- Geoffrey K. Feld Department of Chemistry 492 Stanley Hall University of California, Berkeley "Vigilia pretium libertatis"

NCS operators
by Melania Strycharska 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

Dear all, I have a bit of a problem applying NCS to my fairly low resolution structure. If I try to look for NCS symmetry automatically - phenix doesn't find any. If I specify sections that I want to be related by NCS, the script usually crashes. I have a dimer in the asymmetric unit, however it appears that one domain is related by 3-fold symmetry while the other is related by 6 fold symmetry. I can "cheat" phenix and generate operators for each of the domains by feeding a stripped pdb file (one that contains only a dimer of one domain or the other) to phenix.simple_ncs_from_pdb and then it easily identifies the ncs operators... unfortunately the simple_ncs_from_pdb.ncs file generated that is meant to be fed into phenix.refine contains only the chain selections, not the actual operators. Is there a way to specify different NCS operators (rotational matrix and translational vector) for specific chain selections in the .eff file or under GUI? or if there isn't, how can I still take advantage of my NCS symmetry? Also, is there any obvious reason why NCS operators that I generated with Phenix do not match the operators that I found using CCP4 Lsqkab? (yes I already accounted for chain A moving onto B or chain B moving onto A) Can I choose to apply NCS symmetry to just my backbone? How would I specify that? thanks so much! Melania

GUI parameter files
by Leonid Sazanov 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hi, I have a following problem in dev-874 version: If I restore a previous job in refine GUI, to run it with modified settings, and include a new parameter file .eff with definitinon of secondary structure restrains, these new restrains are combined with previously used restrains. How do i get rid of previous restrains? Older file is not visible in inputs, but its settings are still used. And in general, how can one be sure which parameters are used at the start of each refine run? If older settings loaded from .eff or .param file are not visible, the only way is to look through new .eff file, which takes a lot of time. Has this been solved in latest builds perhaps?

Refinement using data with pseudo translational symmetry
by Bret Wallace 18 Mar '12

18 Mar '12

To all, First I apologize for the long email, but I wont to make sure that I give enough information to describe the problem. I have been working on a structure of two proteins in complex with each other (one forms a homodimer, with each monomer bound to 1 monomer of the other protein), using data, that according to phenix.xtriage contains pseudo translational symmetry (output pasted below). I have done a lot of searching of both the phenixBB and ccp4BB regarding solutions to this problem, but unfortunately most responses seem to be directed at resolving issues with MR. I have successfully performed MR using both phenix phaser, ccp4 phaser (the most updated version), as well as molrep. The issue arises upon structure refinement, where my Rwork and Rfree are essentially stuck at 28 and 33, respectively. I have built the entire structure, including ligands, except for any solvent molecules. Here are the details for the data/structure: SG: P212121 Cell: 72 124 175 90 90 90 Res: 50-2.8 Patterson analyses ------------------ Largest Patterson peak with length larger than 15 Angstrom Frac. coord. : 0.155 0.000 0.500 Distance to origin : 87.222 Height (origin=100) : 34.517 p_value(height) : 6.739e-04 The reported p_value has the following meaning: The probability that a peak of the specified height or larger is found in a Patterson function of a macro molecule that does not have any translational pseudo symmetry is equal to 6.739e-04. p_values smaller than 0.05 might indicate weak translational pseudo symmetry, or the self vector of a large anomalous scatterer such as Hg, whereas values smaller than 1e-3 are a very strong indication for the presence of translational pseudo symmetry. Xtriage notes that the if the PTS is crystallographic, that C2221 is a possible SG (x+1/6, y, z+1/2). However, neither XDS or HKL picks orthorhombic C, and the indexing/integrating doesn't work if I force it. I should also not there is no twinning detected by either xtriage or twinning servers. I have done a number of things to try to resolve this: -rescaling in lower symmetry (P21 and P1) -rescaling in the PG P222 and letting the MR program decide the proper space group -shifting origin and re-refining -a number of different refinement protocols (TLS, optimized weights/adp, simulated annealing, several cycles of rigid body, etc.) I have used HKL2000 and XDS to index/integrate/scale the data, both yield the same results, with slightly different completeness and Rmerge values, but refining with either gives similar R factor values. Does any know of any other possible things I should try to refine this data? I am happy to provide additional information upon request. Thanks in advance for any help! Bret

selectively remove bond length restraints on atoms
by Maxime Cuypers 15 Mar '12

15 Mar '12

hello, What is the best way to selectively remove bond length restraints on some selected atoms for phenix.refine? i found the commands for a .param file: refinement { geometry_restraints.remove { angles = None dihedrals = None chiralities = None planarities = None } } but no bond length command in the manual online. http://www.phenix-online.org/version_docs/dev-283/refinement.htm otherwise there is the commands refinement { geometry_restraints.edit { bond { action= *delete change atom_selection_1= (selection1 here) atom_selection_2= (selection2 here) distance_ideal= None } } } is it a good way to deal with the problem ? thanks in advance for your help.

David Sayre
by Paul Adams 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

On behalf of the Phenix development team: We regret deeply the passing of David Sayre on Feb. 23, 2012. David Sayre made profound contributions to crystallography and scientific computing that continue to have a major impact decades later. An obituary summarizing his many achievements was posted by Physics Today (http://www.physicstoday.org/1.2732466). In crystallography, Sayre’s fundamental insight into the implications of the atomic nature of crystal structures and the relationships between crystallographic structure factors allowed him to develop in 1952 the brilliantly simple Sayre equation relating each structure factor to all other structure factors. The Sayre equation has had a well-known yet greatly under-appreciated significance in small-molecule crystallography, both in its original form and in the equivalent probabilistic forms implemented later as part of direct methods. These methods have profoundly affected macromolecular crystallography in the last decade because of their astounding power for determination of heavy-atom substructures. The use of direct methods has made possible solution of the positions of as many as 160 selenium atoms in large macromolecular structures. To appreciate the feat that this represents, it is useful to consider that many macromolecular crystallographers were initially hesitant to use the seleno-methionine approach at all for structures that had more than about 10 selenium atoms for fear that the substructure could not be solved. Sayre’s recent work on phasing X-ray diffraction data from single large objects such as a yeast cell and single small objects such as a single protein molecule was groundbreaking in a different way. This work is revolutionary because of its boldness, and because of the elegantly simple approach to phase determination that Sayre developed. Once again Sayre took a fundamental real-space feature of the diffraction image and used it to obtain phase relationships. In this case the diffraction forms a continuous pattern from a single object, and the feature is the lack of contrast outside of the object. While the idea of using a mask of the object (the “support”) to define phases has been used for some time in many contexts, it was far from obvious that this could be done with a single cell or with a single protein molecule. Sayre and his colleagues systematically showed theoretically and then experimentally that each step in this process can be carried out and that the required signal can be extracted to obtain an X-ray image of microdots and later even a yeast cell. Others have followed up his ideas for phasing data from a single protein molecule. This work was of fundamental and transforming importance because few would have believed that the ideas were remotely feasible, and now they have a sound theoretical basis and experimental demonstrations, allowing anyone to think of new and powerful ways to use these approaches. The breadth of Sayre's intellectual spectrum reached far beyond crystallography. He was also a member of the IBM team that developed the original Fortran compiler, the first high-level programming tool (see http://www.ibm.com/ibm100/us/en/icons/fortran/team/ for more details). Currently, 55 years after the first commercial release of Fortran, this language is still in wide use. The history of crystallographic computing, and scientific computing in general, cannot be separated from the success of Fortran, made possible by the amazing IBM team that included Sayre. In spite of his great accomplishments, David Sayre was modest and approachable in person, and he was generous in sharing credit with his colleagues. He will be greatly missed. -- Paul Adams Deputy Division Director, Physical Biosciences Division, Lawrence Berkeley Lab Division Deputy for Biosciences, Advanced Light Source, Lawrence Berkeley Lab Adjunct Professor, Department of Bioengineering, U.C.

error after adp refinement
by Christian Roth 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Dear Phenix Team, I started a refinement with anisotropic adp and weight optimization and directly after the optimization step an error appeared which never appeared befor for me. The previous steps of mask optimization and xyz refinement worked well.
