What happened with Rfree between dev-2376 and now?
by Mark Saper 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

Hi all, I’ve been running some tests with the current dev and released versions of Phenix. If I run the same job (same input files, same parameters), the current versions consistently result in Rfree values ~1% more than Phenix version dev-2376! What changed between then and now? Thanks, Mark _______________________________________________ Mark A.

Note that R-free numbers are different than a year ago.
by Mark Saper 26 Mar '17

26 Mar '17

In July 2016, I finished a refinement with Phenix dev-2376 with these final stats start final --------------------------------------- R-work: 0.1982 0.2007 R-free: 0.2376 0.2367 RMS(angles): 0.55 0.45 RMS(bonds): 0.003 0.002 Today, I reran the exact same parameter file and input files with Phenix dev-2712: start final --------------------------------------- R-work: 0.2073 0.2037 R-free: 0.2445 0.2442 RMS(angles): 0.55 0.45 RMS(bonds): 0.003 0.002 R-free values are now higher than they used to be. This fact was also flagged when I ran Table 1 today. -Mark _______________________________________________ Mark A.

help with pdbtools
by Edward A. Berry 25 Mar '17

25 Mar '17

1. I'm trying to use pdbtools and I don't quite get the syntax. How can I specify the output file name on the command line? these don't work: phenix.pdbtools 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 output file_name = shake1.pdb phenix.pdbtools 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 file_name = shake1.pdb phenix.pdbtools 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 --output file_name = shake1.pdb phenix.pdbtools 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 --file_name = shake1.pdb phenix.pdbtools --output file_name = shake1.pdb 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 phenix.pdbtools output.file_name = shake1.pdb 2chr_refine_001.pdb sites.shake=0.5 2. for the "shake" operation, is there a random seed so that it comes out differently each time? (If I do this five times with different output file names, will they all be the different?)

DNA double helix through crystal symmetry

Hello, how could one restrain DNA base pairing across a crystallographic axis? Are secondary_structure.nucleic_acid restraints "symmetry-aware"? Thank you. Wolfram Tempel

Berkeley Server Downtime (3/23 - 3/24)
by Billy Poon 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

Dear all, On Thursday, March 23, our servers will be shut down starting at 5:00 pm Pacific for some emergency electrical work near our building. We expect that the servers will be available the next day (3/24) by 1:00 pm Pacific. There is a possibility that the outage will last longer. This will affect, - The Phenix web site (http://phenix-online.org/) - The DIALS West web site (http://dials.lbl.gov/) - The CCI web site (http://cci.lbl.gov/) - The Structural Biology Technology Portal (http://technology.sbkb.org/) Bug reports and emails requesting help should be queued and we will receive them once the servers are back online. We apologize for any inconvenience and the short notice. -- Billy K.

options in phenix.merging_statistics
by Murpholino Peligro 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hello. I was wondering what is the normal situation where one should click the boxes marked as "Keep anomalous pairs separate in merging statistics" (option1) and/or "Use internal variance of the data in the calculation of the merged sigmas" (option2)? I am asking because it looks like it is detrimental to the statistics, as you can see in the file attached (CSV file with 4 columns for no options, option1, option2 and option1&2). Thanks in advance.

phenix ensemble ref.
by Kajander, Tommi A 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hi, is it possible to do ensemble refinement in phenix with just one domain? (and e.g. fix the other) Doens seem so? Thanks, Tommi

Error running phenix.rosetta_refine tests with Rosetta 3.8
by Oliver Clarke 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hi, Phenix rosetta refinement worked with previous versions of rosetta and phenix, but with the latest Rosetta version (3.8) and latest phenix nightly I get a crash when running rosetta.run_tests after building the rosetta phenix interface, which runs a test run of phenix.rosetta_refine. It gets to the stage of generating initial models and then crashes - see attached log. Ideas for a fix welcome! Cheers Oli
