GUI admin issues
by Yarrow Madrona 09 Jul '13

09 Jul '13

Hello, I have a couple of GUI related questions 1. We recently moved all of our data from one hard drive to another. However, we do not know how to change the directory for all of our projects. The directory is similar but the hard drive is now called tp3home instead of tp2home. We found a .phenix directory that has a file with a list of projects and directories. We updated the directories but this did not make a difference in the GUI. 2. Is there a quick way to specify which ligand or amino acid to remove in the GUI with doing simmulated annealing or better to do manually? Thanks. -Yarrow -- Yarrow Madrona Graduate Student Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Dept. University of California, Irvine Natural Sciences I, Rm 2403 Irvine, CA 92697

Re: [phenixbb] omit map for protein-DNA complex
by Wei Shi 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

Hi guys, With the help of Tom and Nat, I fixed the errors in my pdb file and could generate the simulated annealing omit map for the protein-DNA complex structure! But when I opened resolve_composite_map.mtz and *_ed.pdb in Coot, I could only see one monomer of the protein in Coot. It should be two dimers of the protein plus two pieces of DNA. And when I opened the *_ed.pdb in pymol, it showed the right thing: two dimers of the protein plus two pieces of DNA. It seems that something in *_ed.pdb file is not recognized by Coot. I don't know whether any of you had this before and would have any suggestions for me. When I opened *_ed. pdb with text file and found out that the word "break" is used instead of "ter" between different chains, so I replaced all "break" with "ter", but this didn't help.... Thank you so much! Best, Wei On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 10:36 AM, Wei Shi <wei.shi118(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Nat and Tom, > Thank you so much for your help!

I can get SF4.cif from CCP4 and set the weights for bonds/angles very low to let the density rule. But now I see the problem wasn't there a few rounds back, and the difference seems to be that I was using 3 macro_cyles instead of 1. Now I repeat exactly the same refinement both ways, seems to be it. So maybe an artifact of not refining to convergence. Odd though, because it was OK in the starting model, and I'm not asking for the B's to be reset initially to 20 or something. Problem seems to be solved by using the default 3 cycles, but in case anyone is interested, B-factors for Fe are pretty much unchanged after refining 3 cycles B-factors for the Fe's but not the S's, decrease by about 5.0 on refining 1 cycle. Overall and protein B-ave increase on refining 1 cycle Looking at the step by step changes, the first cycle out of 3 is not like the single cycle. This is dev-1420 version of phenix.

problem refining Fe-S cluster
by Edward A. Berry 05 Jul '13

05 Jul '13

I have a problem refining a structure with iron-sulfur clusters. The irons refine to low B-factors (~25 in this case, while wilson B and B-average are around 45 and the Sg's ligating the irons are ~30). The irons have negative difference density and there is positive density in the center of the cluster (not on the S as it appears; the S is actually above the plane of the irons and the positive density below). (see attached map) It's possible that the cluster is lost in some percent of the molecules, and I could refine occupancy to get rid of the negative density, but I suspect this is likely to be because the B-factors are too low. I will try manually setting B for the Fe's and refining without ADP step, but does anyone have a better suggestion? This was refined for one macrocycle with strategy = *individual_sites individual_sites_real_space rigid_body \ *individual_adp group_adp tls *occupancies group_anomalous thanks, eab

Very low resolution data set
by Xiang Li 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Hi everyone, I am working on a very low resolution data set (14 A). It is a designed DNA crystal and unit cell size & symmetry fit well with the assumption. When I do the refinement I found the Rfree is extreme high, ~0.49 while Rwork is about 0.4. But the model seems fits in well with the density map. I have collected different datasets, and it gives about the same MR result for different sets. I do not have any experience to work with low resolution data. Here I have a few questions: 1 What is the expected Rfree and Rwork for such low resolution data? I looked up PDB bank, and there is a 11.5A crystal with Rfree=~0.4. But not sure whether there is a kind of value for Rfree to consider the refinement works or not. 2 There might be overfit problem during the refinement. Currently what I did is to optimize the weight with PHENIX gui, add restraints between basepairs and NCS restraint. I tried to manually adjust the weight, but seems the optimized weight gives the best result. Are there other things I should try? 3 How to confirm that the result is real? There will be larger than usual error for such low resolution data, and what the supposed range should be? Thanks a lot for your suggestions and help! Sincerely, Xiang

omit map for protein-DNA complex
by Wei Shi 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

Hi guys, I've been trying to generate the omit map for a protein-DNA complex structure using Phenix. I don't know why it takes forever to run and didn't seem like to finish at all.... The resolution of the dataset is 3.2A. Omit map type: simulated annealing. Omit region: composite. And, for the corresponding apo-protein structure, the simulated annealing omit map was generated within 2 or 3 hours on the same computer cluster. Let me know whether you have any idea about what might go wrong and whether there is anything I could do.... Thank you so much! Best, Wei

In essence, they suggest to exclude from the working set reflections that are (1) related to a test reflection by NCS (2) adjacent to a test reflection and its NCS mates in reciprocal space They have implemented this strategy in a CNS module (R-free2005), but the software is no longer actively supported. Does anybody know if something similar has ever been implemented in other software packages such as phenix? Or am I missing any significant downsides of the approach - apart from a reduction of the working set? Best regards, Oliver ================================================ PD Dr. Oliver H.

Error while updating water
by Subhani Bandara 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Dear all, I am refining a protein structure at 2.5 A. After running some refinements with water update option on, I manually added water to some positions and ran without water update option as it removes those water from the sites and show green density around. Then after some refinements like this, I tried to use water update option to add water to some newly appeared density. When I check the option to update water using dev 1418 version it stops with the following error. Also when not using water update option, refinement statistics got worse when I used 1418 compared to 1.8.2-1309 with refinements using same inputs and options. R work-0.1988 compared to 0.1920 with 1.8.2-1309 Rfree-0.2623 compared to 0.2490 with 1.8.2-1309 Traceback: File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/cctbx_project/libtbx/thread_utils.py", line 236, in run return_value = self._target(self._args, self._kwargs, self._c) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/cctbx_project/libtbx/runtime_utils.py", line 94, in __call__ result = self.target() File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/cctbx_project/libtbx/runtime_utils.py", line 73, in __call__ result = self.run() File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/runtime.py", line 69, in run refine_object = self._run(args, callback) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/runtime.py", line 85, in _run call_back_handler=callback) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/command_line.py", line 161, in run call_back_handler=call_back_handler) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/driver.py", line 1630, in run ncs_manager = self.ncs_manager).result File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/strategies.py", line 155, in __init__ neutron_refinement2 = self.neutron_refinement2) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/task_table.py", line 26, in __init__ self.__call__() File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/task_table.py", line 36, in __call__ self.__getattribute__(method_name)() File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/task_table.py", line 106, in run_sol mc = self.macro_cycle) File "/Applications/PHENIX-dev-1418/Contents/phenix-dev-1418/phenix/phenix/refinement/task_table.py", line 79, in _need_to_run else: raise RuntimeError("Not a valid mode: %s"%mode) Thanks in advance for any help Subhani

automatic weight optimization
by Michael Thompson 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Hello Phenix Folks, I have a few questions about the automatic weight optimization in phenix.refine. I have read the manual, but I feel like maybe I'm missing something. I apologize in advance if these are naive questions, but here goes. I ran phenix.refine with a .def file, in which I set the following parameters: target_weights { optimize_xyz_weight = True optimize_adp_weight = True wxu_scale = 2.72 } My goal was to optimize both xyz and adp weights. In the log file, I see something like this: ===================== xyz refinement (lbfgs minimization) ===================== R-FACTORS RMSD CLASH RAMA ROTA CBET WEIGHT TARGETS work free delta bonds angl data restr 21.06 20.38 -0.67 0.033 2.0 6.1 0.0 6.6 0 none 0.154 0.1685 19.79 21.26 1.47 0.012 1.3 7.6 0.0 5.8 0 2.494 0.131 0.0499 Legend: - first line corresponds to starting state (before refinement) - R-factors reported in percent - delta is Rfree-Rwork in percent - CLASH is all-atom Molprobity clashscore - ROTA is percent of side-chain rotamer outliers - RAMA is percent of Ramachandran plot outliers - CBET is number of Cbeta deviations - WEIGHT is relative weight between X-ray (or neutron) target and restraints - TARGETS: the values of X-ray (or neutron) and restraints target functions ================================ ADP refinement =============================== ----------Individual ADP refinement---------- R-FACTORS <Bi-Bj> <B> WEIGHT TARGETS work free delta data restr 19.79 21.26 1.47 1.909 20.062 0.661 0.131 19.80 21.28 1.49 1.761 20.011 0.007 0.130 19.77 21.41 1.64 1.838 19.884 0.030 0.125 20.30 22.63 2.34 2.369 19.168 0.122 0.111 20.17 22.82 2.64 2.886 18.929 0.243 0.107 20.07 23.04 2.97 3.771 18.737 0.365 0.104 20.04 23.14 3.10 4.106 18.751 0.486 0.103 20.00 23.19 3.19 4.496 18.794 0.608 0.103 19.98 23.23 3.25 4.846 18.851 0.729 0.102 19.97 23.27 3.29 5.115 18.940 0.851 0.102 19.95 23.30 3.36 5.420 18.988 0.972 0.101 19.94 23.33 3.39 5.579 19.008 1.094 0.101 19.93 23.29 3.36 5.598 18.917 1.215 0.101 max suggested <Bi-Bj> for this run: 10.00 max allowed Rfree-Rwork gap: 5.0 range of equivalent Rfree: 0.0 Best ADP weight: 0.007 Accepted refinement result: 19.80 21.28 1.49 1.761 20.011 0.007 0.130 The output kind of makes me feel like the adp weight is being optimized, but the xyz weight might not be. There is a list of statistics for varying values of the adp weight, but there is no similar list in the output from the xyz refinement stages. So my questions are: Is the xyz weight being optimized? Did I miss something in the input that is required to turn on xyz weight optimization? If the weight is indeed being optimized, then I must be misinterpreting the log file. How can I check to make sure the xyz weight optimization is running? Thanks for the help!! Mike Thompson -- Michael C.
