Difference Map positive peaks in release dev-798
by Yuri 26 Jun '11

26 Jun '11

Pavel, I just ran the same job using the last official release (743). Some differences: >When the change occurred (between which version numbers)? Some where in between 743 and dev-798. >Does the peak disappear if you do the same calculation using an older > version? Yes, I see no positive or negative peaks for the Mg ion (nor my ligand). >There is no general remedy - it's all case-dependent. >Does its B-factor differ significantly from surrounding atoms? Yes, the B-factor for the ligand is 20 on average. The surrounding residues and cofactor are 10 or below. But, as I mentioned above, I see no positive peak density this time around. -- Yuri Pompeu

NCS error in Phenix 1.7.1-743
by Ngan Nguyen Bich 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

Dear all, I've got a problem when rerunning the same job of my project in the new laptop. I've found that it's because of the NCS restraint groups set-up In the old computer I set two NCS restraints groups as: First group: Reference group: chain A and sidechain and resid 3:216 and not (resid 63 or resid 66 or resid 81 or resid 93 or resid 133 or resid 135 or resid 181 or resid 184 or resid 193 or resid 194 or resid 212) Second group: Reference group: chain A and backbone and resid 3:217 and not (resid 63 or resid 133 or resid 135 or resid 184) And the refine_phenix run well in the old computer, but the new laptop with the error in the end of this letter. I've found that if I delete the backbone in the second group, it runs again. So I wonder that how I could refine NCS restraint of backbone now? Thank you in advance.

scattering factors
by Goragot Wisedchaisri 21 Jun '11

21 Jun '11

Hi, I am new to Phenix but I have used Solve/Resolve in the past. I am currently using Phenix 1.6.2 and I have electron diffraction data to ~2A from a 300kV electron microscope that I would like to use Autobuild and phenix.refine to iteratively rebuild and refine my partial structure. I have a file containing electron scattering factors for 300kV EM that has been used successfully for refinement with CNS before for electron diffraction data. How can I tell Phenix to use electron scattering factors during refinement? I think currently Phenix has 4 choices for X-ray and neutron scattering factors but not for electron scattering. Is there a good way to implement electron scattering factors into phenix library? Any suggestions are welcome. George Wisedchaisri

General Questions about Joint x-ray/neutron refinement
by Louis Lazar 17 Jun '11

17 Jun '11

Developers/all: I have been running some Joint X/N jobs, and I have some questions that perhaps you can help me with. First, doing joint refinement gave a total of 53 waters (thanks to ordered_solvent=true), yet the electron density seems to show that there are several more waters that are actually present (however it should be noted that there is no nuclear density associated with those waters, and in some cases no nuclear density associated with the 53 that were chosen by ordered_solvent=true). Should I add in manually to the electron density what I believe are these extra waters, or simply ignore them? Second, when I try to real space refine any of the residues, I get an error message telling me about exploding atoms. What is the cause of this message, and is it possible to real space refine any of these residues and specifically the hydrogen atoms associated with them. Third, during the joint refinement run, I chose to refine occupancies of all atoms. This breaks down into several questions: A) Should I be refining occupancies at 2.0 A resolution (of the neutron structure; 1.05A for the X-ray)? B) How does Phenix go about refining occupancies of hydrogen/deuterium sites? C) If the resulting occupancies result in values of, for example, 60% deuterium and 40% hydrogen, am I to presume that deuterium presence is significant if the nuclear density looks "good". At what point of deuterium occupation (while examining the nuclear density), would I say that there is likely no deuterium present (or that it is insignificant)? Hopefully all of these questions make sense, and if I need to clarify anything, please let me know. Thanks so much in advance for the help, I appreciate it as always. Regards, Louis

tls group and anisotropic

Dear Phenixers, I refined my structure with TLS, I did not mean to refine it with anisotropic strategy, but I got ANISOU record. As the manual metioned, when doing TLS refinement, It always happens like this. What does this ANISOU record mean ? Does that mean TLS is a grouped anisotropic refinement?

Re: [phenixbb] rosetta fragment files -- adjusting residue numbers to combine them
by Thomas C. Terwilliger 17 Jun '11

17 Jun '11

Hi Leonid and others wanting to use phenix.mr_rosetta with large chains, After looking at the Rosetta code and conferring with Frank DiMaio from the Baker laboratory... You can paste several fragment files together to represent your entire chain, but you need to edit all but the first one to set the position in the sequence file that each set of fragments goes with. Here is a little script that will take a fragments file that you have created that started with residue 651 and edit it in a way that you can just add to the end of your fragments file for residues 1-650. Run it with: phenix.python adjust_robetta_resid.py \ fragments_in fragments_adjusted 651 -------------------------------- # adjust_robetta_resid.py # use: phenix.python adjust_robetta_resid.py fragments_in fragments_adjusted 651 # to adjust the first residue of fragments_in to be 651 import sys args=sys.argv[1:] if len(args) != 3: print "USE: phenix.python adjust_robetta_resid.py fragments_in fragments_adjusted <start_resno>" sys.exit() file_in=args[0] file_out=args[1] start_resno=int(args[2]) print "Copying %s to %s offsetting start residue number to %d" %( file_in,file_out,start_resno) f=open(file_out,'w') new_resno=0 for line in open(file_in).readlines(): if line.find('position:') > -1 and line.find('neighbors:')>-1: spl=line.split() current_resno=int(spl[1]) new_resno=current_resno+start_resno print "Residue %d changed to %d" %(current_resno,new_resno) spl[1]=" %d " %(new_resno) new_line=" ".join(spl) else: new_line=line print >>f, new_line.rstrip() f.close() -------------------------------- I will add this to phenix as "phenix.adjust_robetta_resid" as well. However...there still is a problem if you have multiple chains...as mr_rosetta has only one set of fragments files the same fragments files are being applied to all your chains. I will add a way to specify which fragments files go with which chains.

I get this error Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/phenix-1.7.1-743/elbow/elbow/command_line/join_cif_files.py", line 245, in <module> run(filenames, target) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.7.1-743/elbow/elbow/command_line/join_cif_files.py", line 145, in run include_commented_restraints=1, #include_commented_restraints, File "/usr/local/phenix-1.7.1-743/elbow/elbow/formats/monomer_library_cif_parser.py", line 185, in parse_cif raise RuntimeError('long tmp') RuntimeError: long tmp Maia

Using rosetta for domain search with partial model solution
by Daniel Mattle 15 Jun '11

15 Jun '11

Dear Phenix Developers, Is there a possibility within rosetta searching only for a domain (using hhr files) while one has already a partial pdb model lacking a particular domain? I was unable to find this feature? Do you have implemented that? If this is not implemented yet, would it be possible to add this feature? Best, Daniel

again: XDS files
by Kay Diederichs 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

Hi everybody, it has been possible for many years to produce MTZ files from XDS data; I do that all the time, going through xdsconv (filetype CCP4, or CCP4_F, or CCP4_I depending on what type of data one wants - see the docs). This works very well. Others use the xds/pointless/scala/truncate route or the older xds/combat route or ... - as long as it works that's fine. Thus my message was not meant to discourage people from doing that. Rather I see a new possibility to go _directly_ into Phenix, which clearly may be desirable in some cases (less programs involved means less work and maybe fewer bugs), and I wanted to describe the options. If Autosol can use unmerged data (which was new to me), then going from XDS through pointless to a unmerged MTZ file should be the easiest and best way (http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/xdswiki/index.php/Pointless). best, Kay

low-resolution refinement
by Jennifer Weinreich 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

Hello, I am refining a low-resolution structure of a protein complex (4.4 Å). The structure was solved by molecular replacement using structures of individual subunits as search models. Here are some of the questions that I have (and also points raised by our reviewers.) Your thoughts and suggestions on how to proceed with this will be very much appreciated. 1) The B factors are very high (300-400). The Wilson B calculated by phenix.xtriage is ~200. Is this something I should be concerned about? 2) What is the expected (or 'acceptable') gap between R and Rfree at this resolution. (Current R = 27%, Rfree = 33%) Does this sound reasonable? 3) It has been suggested to me that I should try adding riding hydrogens during the last round of refinement (to help with geometry). Is this something I should do? And if so, should I remove them when I deposit the file to the PDB. (Hydrogens at 4.5A are probably going to raise a lot of eyebrows... 4) What is the 'acceptable' coordinate and phase errors for structures at this resolution. (They are now 1.4Å and 36˚) 5) I have been using secondary structure restraints during the refinement, which seems to work reasonably well. I also tried refinement using reference model (the structure of the individual components). But refining with reference models seems to result in high RMSD bonds/angles. Is there something I'm missing? Short of growing better crystals, are there other strategies I should be trying with the existing data? Thank you! Jenn

XDS files in Phenix
by Kay Diederichs 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

Dear Ralf, dear all, Recently there was some discussion about reading of XDS output files here on PhenixBB, and I'd like to try and shed some light on this. First, I'm glad to hear this is possible in principle! However, the caveat is, that three types of "native" output files are written by programs from the "XDS program package": a) the main program ("xds", or "xds_par") writes only one type of file, called XDS_ASCII.HKL. This has _unmerged_ observations, and this is therefore currently _unsuitable_ for reading by Phenix programs (since the Phenix routine expects merged, unique reflections). If this is nevertheless tried, I see the danger that Phenix might "eat" all observations of a unique reflections except one, possibly without telling about this problem (? - I didn't try!!) - this is definitely not what you want! b) the program "xscale" can write an output file with unmerged observations. This is the default, and corresponds to MERGE=FALSE in XSCALE.INP . As for a), this is also not what you want! c) the program "xscale" can write an output file with merged observations. This is not the default, but can be obtained by using MERGE=TRUE in XSCALE.INP . This is what you want to read with Phenix programs. Thus only possibility c) will give you a "native XDS" file that is ready to be read by Phenix programs. In addition to this possibility, one can use of course use "xdsconv" to go from XDS_ASCII.HKL (or any file written by "xscale") to a (non-native XDS) filetype that Phenix programs can read. The most general should be to write a MTZ file, but CNS/X-PLOR type files can also be produced. If someone would implement merging of observations in the Phenix routines (it should be straightforward: negative sigmas indicate that observations should not be used; otherwise the standard formulas could be used; symmetry-related reflections of course have to be handled correctly but they are already sorted by unique reflection), then possibilities a) and b) would also work. But until this is implemented, c) should be used. Hope this helps, Kay P.S.

Possible Twinned data
by Yuri 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

Dear Peter, I sent you my log file off list. I realize now that p43 21 2 doesnt allow for twil law. I reprocessed my data in P222 and P4, dont know if it was the right move, but xtriage now gives me the possible PM and M twin laws, respectively. (Would be happy to send you those log as well). If anyone has input on this issue please join in. I am not greatly experienced on twinned crystals. cheers, -- Yuri Pompeu

Fragment library for mr_rosetta
by riya doreen 10 Jun '11

10 Jun '11

Hi Everyone, I am trying to generate a fragment library for my sequence of interest to use with mr_rosetta. The Robetta server has a sequence limit of 650 amino acids. For longer sequence, will it make sense to divide the sequence into 650 amino acid fragments and generate multiple fragment files ? Thanks Thanks

Possible Twinned data
by Yuri 10 Jun '11

10 Jun '11

Hello phenixers, I am a little bit at loss since this is the first time I have encountered this situation. I just collected preliminary data on a ligand soaked crystal. It goes to about 1.85 A. The centrics and acentrics reflections tests look a little deviant from ideal untwinned. I was looking at my xtriage log file and it seemed to me like I have some twinned fraction. Phenix says not. I realize too my completeness is not good. Any educated insight would be helpful as I have never dealt with twinning (if this actually the case).

Hi Jorge, In your version of phenix yes, you need a special format for the alignment files. I just changed it to allow a simple alignment file: >target sequence-of-target >template sequence-of-template which is also used by sculptor. This is available in a current nightly build.

Hi, In the manual of version 1.7.1, I found out that only phenix.hyss can read XDS_ASCII files with merged data. Do other phenix tools recognized XDS_ASCII files? If not, I would like to request this feature. For example, let phenix.autosol read XDS_ASCII file with merged or unmerged data. Thanks. -- Jianghai

mr_rosetta - homology search with hhr file - Cannot contact EBI DbFetch
by iulek＠interponta.com.br 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

Dear all, I would like to use mr_rosetta with homolgy search. I followed the instructions at http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/mr_rosetta.htm , generated the hhr and the fragment files, but at submitting the job I receive the message: ******************* ERROR ENDING *************** Cannot contact EBI DbFetch service ******************* ERROR ENDING *************** after both loading the file 3800765_mod_ed.hhr and generating the log file mr_model_preparation.log. Concerning this problem, I saw http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/faqs.htm#anch8 . But I am not behind a proxy and even disabling completely the firewall, the message still appears. Maybe this is more linux related, I use openSuSE 11.4. One workaround would be that I write a script to wget the pdb files (listed in .hhr) and select the due chains, putting these in a certain location and indicating in my script where they are. But I am a kind of confused, might search_models= do this. I am not sure I could use a hhr file together with it. Anyway, this might be a desirable solution for me yet I use to run my stuff in a laptop which goes around by. Thanks, Jorge

meaning of nproc in mr_rosetta
by Miguel Ortiz Lombardía 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

Dear Phenix developers, Could you elaborate on the meaning of "nproc" in phenix.mr_rosetta? I tried unsuccessfully to find out in the docs. Please, let me know if I missed something. I sent out a master job to an SGE queue engine, having set nproc=64. At this moment I find 168 jobs submitted and running and the total number of processors in use seems to be around 120. Better understanding of the meaning of nproc would help with the allocation of resources.

The SASTBX webserver
by Peter Zwart 04 Jun '11

04 Jun '11

Dear All, I would like to advertise our online server featuring some basic SAXS analyses tools. The website http://sastbx.als.lbl.gov/cgi-bin/index.html has functionality for 1. Model intensity calculation (using a Spherical Harmonic Expansion; sastbx.she ) 2. Shape determination (or better: Shape Recovery; sastbx.shapeup) 3. Model alignment (sastbx.zalign) The applications we have developed are build using the SASTBX, an extension of the CCTBX (http://cctbx.sf.net) framework, dedicated to the analyses of SAXS data. The model intensity calculation engine uses an approach similar to CRYSOL and (in our hands) provides model SAXS data of a similar quality as FOXS and CRYSOL. The shape recovery procedure (shapeup) provides an estimate of the shape typically within 1 minute without the need for preprocessing the data (i.e. just feed it your background subtracted SAXS curve and nothing more). You can provide a known model as well for comparison. Some example shape recovery results can be found here: http://sastbx.als.lbl.gov/grant/shapeup/summary.html The examples were prepared utilizing data provided by Edward Snell and coworkers (Grant, T. D., Luft, J. R., Wolfley, J. R., Tsuruta, H., Martel, A., Montelione, G. T. and Snell, E. H. (2011), Small angle X-ray scattering as a complementary tool for high-throughput structural studies. Biopolymers, 95: 517–530). Feel free to contact me or Haiguang Liu (HGLiu(a)lbl.gov) if you encounter any problems or have questions.

omit map
by Desi Mail 04 Jun '11

04 Jun '11

Hi everybody, I would like to calculate the omit map around the ligand. I followed the documentation http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/autobuild.htm#anch159 But the 2Fo density around the ligand is very poor. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Mary Make a SA-omit map around atoms in target.pdb phenix.autobuild data=data.mtz model=coords.pdb omit_box_pdb=target.pdb composite_omit_type=sa_omit Coefficients for the output omit map will be in the file resolve_composite_map.mtz in the subdirectory OMIT/ . An additional map coefficients file omit_region.mtz will show you the region that has been omitted. (Note: be sure to use the weights in both resolve_composite_map.mtz and omit_region.mtz).

Dear colleagues, am I alone in thinking that in my example phenix.elbow gave me more than what I was asking for, specifically atom H11 attached to sulfur? Is it added by elbow, or does it originate from the "--chem=tpp" input? Best regards, Wolfram Tempel command line: phenix.elbow --chem=tpp --mogul phenix version: 1.7.1-743

Re: [phenixbb] rosetta_mr autobuild failure - typo fixed
by Thomas C. Terwilliger 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hi again Joe, Typo below (csh vs bash) fixed in this version of the message. -Tom Hi Joe, I'm sorry for the problems in running mr_rosetta! Getting the set up to work is appearing to be a bit of a challenge, particularly on a mac. So the first problem is this: "dyld: Library not loaded: /Applications/rosetta3.2_bundles/rosetta_source/build/src/release/macos/10.5/64/x86/gcc/libdevel.dylib Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/rosetta/rosetta_source/bin/mr_protocols.default.macosgccrelease Reason: image not found" In the cases that have come up so far, there have been two problems. Here are the solutions to those two problems: 1. The installation of Rosetta cannot be moved after it is compiled. This is because the path to the libraries (as in the error message above) is compiled into Rosetta. So...if you moved this installation around at all, try remaking the installation and keeping it in its original location. 2. In some cases the path to the libraries can be conflicting between PHENIX and some other definition on your system. In this case you can try the following shell command (before running phenix.mr_rosetta): with csh: setenv PHENIX_TRUST_OTHER_ENV 1 or with bash or sh: export PHENIX_TRUST_OTHER_ENV=1 Hopefully...one of those will fix this problem. Now the second problem...I am not sure what the actual error is in this one. The error message you got is not helpful as you say because it refers to a file path on the machine where I created the test. That path does not actually have to exist however (I just ran the test on another machine that is not connected to that directory and it runs fine). This means there is some other problem that is the real one. (I will get rid of this error message so this won't happen in the future). Can you try this: 1. reproduce the problem: phenix_regression.wizards.test_command_line_rosetta_quick_tests \ test_autobuild 2. have a look at the log files: cat run.log # if not empty, may give a big clue more test_autobuild_current.log # look at end of this file for clues 3. the test_autobuild_current.log log file may refer to a sub-process where the actual problem occurs: Log file for autobuilding will be: /Users/terwill/unix/misc/junk/test_autobuild/WORK_1/autobuild.log in this case that autobuild log file, and files in WORK_1/AutoBuild_run_1_/TEMP0 may give additional clues. Let me know what this shows! All the best, Tom T >> >> Hi all, >> >> I wanted to use the rebuilding feature of Rosetta to help improve the R-fators of MR solution in a new space group.

rosetta_mr autobuild failure
by Joseph Brock 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hi all, I wanted to use the rebuilding feature of Rosetta to help improve the R-fators of MR solution in a new space group. I'm using Phenix 1.7.1-743 w/ Rosetta 3.2 on MAC OSX 10.5.8 installation was succesful, so after editing my .profile to include export PHENIX_ROSETTA_PATH=/usr/local/bin/rosetta, I tried to run the following tests: 1. phenix_regression.wizards.test_command_line_rosetta_quick_tests test_set_up 2. phenix_regression.wizards.test_command_line_rosetta test_mr_rosetta 3. phenix_regression.wizards.test_command_line_rosetta_quick_tests While the first was successful (ALL COMMAND_LINE TEST OK), the second reported the following error: Error: test_command_line_rosetta failed Upon subsequently running the test_mr_rosetta.com script created in the subdirectory, the following error was reported: coords1.ali coords1.pdb fobs.mtz mr_rosetta_quick.eff perfect.mtz seq.dat test3.gz test9.gz test_mr_rosetta.com test_mr_rosetta.log Sorry: mr_rosetta failed... ******************************************************************************** Sorry, a subprocess has failed...

I have two hunches for what could be going wrong, but I unsure how to fix either: 1. In the phenix documentation it says if using a mac, I might have to download some patches, but I could not find any on the Rosetta dowload page ;(. 2. The documentation also stipulates to specify a proxy server if behind a firewall using export HTTP_PROXY=proxyout.mydomain.edu:8080 I am behind a firewall, but on my machine there is no proxy server listed under system prefernces-->advanced-->proxies. I can access my machine using a vpn, but don't know how to tell rosetta to do the same. Thanks for all your help in advance and sorry that this is so long winded ;) Cheers, Joe

Setting phenix_env in ubuntu 10 system
by Jobichen Chacko 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Dear All, I recently downloaded and installed phenix 1.7-1-743 on Ubuntu system. I need to run the command " source/usr/local/phenix**/phenix_env.sh" each time to launch the program when running as a command line. If I close that terminal and type the command in a new terminal, it is giving the reply "command not found". How does one set paths so that phenix.refine will be recognized in a new terminal window? I got some suggestiions to edit either ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile and add the appropriate "source" command to it. But when I edit .bashrc phenix is automatically executed when I open a new terminal. I want to run phenix by typing command like "phenix.refine xx.pdb xx.mtz". Please let me know which file I should edit to get this. If possible can any ubuntu user send me a copy of the .bashrc file/or any other required file with environment path for phenix. Thank you for your time. Jobi

Re: [phenixbb] Refining sucrose
by Yuri 01 Jun '11

All coot needs to run its real-space refinement is a .cif file as Nigel pointed out. You can also get this file from other ligand library websites (proDrg, hic-cup, etc...). The only catch here is. The name of your sucrose atoms must match, exactly, those in the file. Once you have such file go to the the file drop-down menu and click on Import CIF dictionary in coot. That should enable to rotate the rotatable bonds of your ligand -- Yuri Pompeu

heavy atoms
by ChenTiantian 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Hi, I am dealing with a complex structure which the ligand contains a atom Iodine, I guess it's because Iodine is heavy atom, the electron density of Iodine turns red after 5 cycles refinement. Anybody coped with similar issue? How to let phenix know that the Iodine atom is part of the ligand?
