map_to_model space group symbol not recognized

Hi, All when I try to using map_to_model tool to optimize my model from low-resolution map, phenix.map_to_model refine_2.mtz seq_from_pdb.dat I got the following error, even though I did not provide ncs file, Space group symmetry written as NCS operators to ncs_from_symmetry.ncs_spec Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/build/../modules/phenix/phenix/command_line/map_to_model.py", line 9, in <module> run(sys.argv[1:],out=sys.stdout) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/phenix/phenix/autosol/map_to_model.py", line 5729, in run tracking_data=run_segment_and_split_map(params,out=out) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/phenix/phenix/autosol/map_to_model.py", line 4931, in run_segment_and_split_map ncs_group_obj,remainder_ncs_group_obj,tracking_data=segment_map(args) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/cctbx/maptbx/segment_and_split_map.py", line 5795, in run params,map_data,pdb_hierarchy,tracking_data=get_params(args,out=out) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/cctbx/maptbx/segment_and_split_map.py", line 2055, in get_params params=get_params_from_args(args) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/cctbx/maptbx/segment_and_split_map.py", line 2051, in get_params_from_args return command_line.work.extract() File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/libtbx/phil/__init__.py", line 1757, in extract value = object.extract(parent=result) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/libtbx/phil/__init__.py", line 1757, in extract value = object.extract(parent=result) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/libtbx/phil/__init__.py", line 1122, in extract return self._type_from_words()(self.words, master=self) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/iotbx/phil.py", line 40, in from_words return sgtbx.space_group_info(symbol=str(symbol)) File "/usr/local/phenix-1.11-2567/modules/cctbx_project/cctbx/sgtbx/__init__.py", line 97, in __init__ symbols = space_group_symbols(symbol) RuntimeError: cctbx Error: Space group symbol not recognized: <cctbx_sgtbx_ext.space_group object at 0x101836e20> Would this be a bug or I simply missed something?

Phenix.refine ignores ligand planarity restraint
by Maike Bublitz 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Dear all, this has probably been discussed many times before, but I just can’t seem to find a solution for my current problem with phenix.refine: I am trying to refine a protein structure with a rather complex ligand. I’ve generated a .cif file for the ligand with eLBOW, including planarity restraints for its aromatic ring systems. However, phenix.refine keeps on distorting the 6-ring in my indole group, although all respective atoms are included in the plane definition. At a resolution of 3.0 A, I’d very much prefer to impose an ideal planar structure on this ligand. How can I convince Phenix to not distort my ligand's aromatic rings? Many thanks for your kind suggestions. Best regards, Maike ************************************************* Dr. Maike Bublitz Associate Professor of Microbial Biophysics Department of Biochemistry University of Oxford South Parks Road Oxford OX1 3QU United Kingdom phone: +44 (0)1865 613221 lab: +44 (0)1865 613318 maike.bublitz(at)bioch.ox.ac.uk<http://bioch.ox.ac.uk>

estimated coordinate error from phenix.refine
by Almudena Ponce Salvatierra 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Dear all, I would like to know how the estimated coordinate error is calculated in phenix.refine, the one that is written on the pdb file as "ML based". I'm asking due to the following: For example if I am comparing two different models (structures determined at 2.1 and 2 Angstroms) but one does have a coordinate error estimate of 0.25 Angstroms and the other one of 0.6, respectively. Is the first model more reliable? The second one is reliable too but my question points towards how conservative or how more conservative should I be when describing distances , potential H bonds, coordination. Despite those different numbers in estimated coordinate error, the electron density maps look very similar or almost the same for both structures, very clear and complete at 2 Angstroms. That's why I was somehow surprised to find these difference. Thank you very much in advance Best Almudena -- Dr. Almudena Ponce-Salvatierra EMBL-European Molecular Biology Laboratory 71, avenue des Martyrs - CS 90181 F - 38042 Grenoble Cedex 9

"RosettaScripts executable could not be located" error
by Yonglin Hu 24 Feb '17

24 Feb '17

Hello List, I have installed the rosetta (version 2016.32.58837) and phenix (dev-2689). I have no problem running phenix.mr_rosetta, but when I run phenix.rosetta_refine or rosetta.run_tests, I always get the following error message: Sorry: The RosettaScripts executable could not be located. Please set the environmental variable PHENIX_ROSETTA_PATH or add the appropriate directory to your PATH environment variable. But I do have relevant environmental variables set up: ROSETTA3_DB=/usr/local/rosetta_src_2016.32.58837_bundle/main/database PHENIX=/usr/local/phenix-dev-2689 PHENIX_ROSETTA_PATH=/usr/local/rosetta_src_2016.32.58837_bundle PHENIX_VERSION=dev-2689 I would appreciate it if you could tell me what really went wrong. Have a nice day, Yonglin Hu

changing mtz from P 31 2 1 to P 32 2 1
by Sebastiano Pasqualato 16 Feb '17

16 Feb '17

Hi guys, is there an utility in phenix to change hand of an mtz file? I’m interested in getting a P 32 2 1 mtz from a P 31 2 1. phenix.refine does handle the refinement in P 32 2 1 even with the P 31 2 1 mtz, but the polder map calculating tools complains about discrepancy between the pdb and the mtz. Thanks in advance, ciao, S -- Sebastiano Pasqualato, PhD Crystallography Unit Department of Experimental Oncology European Institute of Oncology IFOM-IEO Campus via Adamello, 16 20139 - Milano Italy tel +39 02 9437 5167 fax +39 02 9437 5990 web http://is.gd/IEOXtalUnit <http://is.gd/IEOXtalUnit>

10 Feb '17

Colleagues, Like many of you, we are concerned over the recent upheaval surrounding travel to and from the United States.The ACA is committed to hosting an annual meeting that brings together a diverse community of scientists, no matter what their country of origin. Our mission includes diversity and a desire to foster a global community of structural scientists, in accordance with the principles of the International Union of Crystallography. While we understand any reluctance to travel to the US at this time, we would like to encourage anyone who is interested in attending the meeting in New Orleans this May to register now and to submit an abstract should you wish to present your work. We will offer a full refund of registration costs to anyone who is denied entry into the US or cannot risk the travel because of travel restrictions. We want you to know that all scientists are welcome at the ACA. Sincerely, The Members of the ACA Council Amy Sarjeant, President Tom Terwilliger, Past President Lisa Keefe, Vice President Sue Byram, Treasurer Diana Tomchick, Secretary Tomislav Friscic, Canadian Representative Hanna Dabkowska, IUCr Representative Bill Duax, CEO Marcia Colquhoun, Director of Admin. Services Kristina Vitale, Membership Secretary Please visit our website to learn more about the 2017 ACA Meeting http://www.amercrystalassn.org/2017-meeting-homepage
