Re: [phenixbb] Unable to install phenix 1.8.1-1168 on Scientific Linux 6.3 64 bits
by Kay Diederichs 29 Jan '13

Davi, This looks to me like you tried installation using e.g. the fc14 installer (that has a glibc "too new" for SL6), and installed with the fc3 on top of that (SL6 works well with the fc13 or lower installer). Since the installers write to the same directory, the fc3 installer finds that the files are already there and does basically nothing that would fix the problem, i.e. replace the binaries and libs. So just remove the /usr/local/phenix-1.8.1-1168 directory (or its contents) before you try a different installer. (Side note: maybe the installer should do that automatically, but there are probably reasons why it doesn't) HTH, Kay On 01/29/2013 12:31 AM, phenixbb-request(a)phenix-online.org wrote: > Message: 5 > Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 16:15:01 -0800 > From: Davi de Miranda Fonseca<davi.fonseca(a)ntnu.no> > To: phenixbb(a)phenix-online.org > Subject: [phenixbb] Unable to install phenix 1.8.1-1168 on Scientific > Linux 6.3 64 bits > Message-ID:<51032005.9040800(a)ntnu.no> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > Dear all, > > I am unable to install phenix 1.8.1-1168 on Scientific Linux 6.3 64 > bits.

use of the file find_ncs.resolve
by Fred. Vellieux 29 Jan '13

29 Jan '13

Hi all, I do not understand how the file "find_ncs.resolve" has to be fed into the "resolve" part of Phenix. Can it be used in the GUI for an autobuild procedure? Can anyone help on this?

Add restraints between base-pairs in GUI & structures comparison
by Xiang Li 28 Jan '13

28 Jan '13

Hi everyone, I am a new user of Phenix and have a few questions asking for help. 1 I worked on a DNA structure and wanted to add restraints during the refinement. I used GUI version and chose "secondary structure restraints"->"restraint base pairs". However, there were some distortion of the base pairing after refinement. Is there a way to assign the base pairing between specific base pairs and force the base pairings in the GUI version? 2 I want to compare two DNA structures to see the RMSD. Each of them were composed of 4 strands. Seems "structure comparison" software can not work with such multiple strands DNA structures. Do you have any suggestions on how to do the comparison please? Thank you very much for your reply! Sincerely, Xiang

multiple occupancy
by Damian Niegowski 28 Jan '13

28 Jan '13

Hi all, I´m trying to refine a dataset which seems to have two different ligands with partial occupancy in the same active site. How do you refine this? When I put them over each other with say 50/50 occupancy Phenix either moves the ligands apart or mashes the two molecules into one strange composite ligand. In Refmac this works without any special settings, it accepts the occupancy distribution between the ligands. Any ideas?

Unable to install phenix 1.8.1-1168 on Scientific Linux 6.3 64 bits

Dear all, I am unable to install phenix 1.8.1-1168 on Scientific Linux 6.3 64 bits. Hence, I would greatly appreciate any 2 cents (or diamonds). I installed Scientific Linux 6.3 64 bits, updated everything and installed a couple of things that I think would be necessary. Then I uncompressed phenix-installer-1.8.1-1168-intel-linux-2.6-x86_64-fc3.tar to /tmp and tried to install, however I got some errors. Hence, I installed a couple more things and tried installing again.

Fwd: WCPCW 21

26 Jan '13

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Williams, John Charles" <jwilliams(a)coh.org> To: "PHENIX user mailing list" <phenixbb(a)phenix-online.org> Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 16:22:00 -0800 Subject: WCPCW 21 All A couple of people requested an extra day or two to register. So we have extended the standard registration fee once more to Tuesday, Jan 29th. As we have to submit our room list Feb 1 to get the room rates at discount, this has to be the last extension. Of note, the meeting is 'all inclusive' - registration includes the meeting, lodging, and all meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner, coffee breaks, and social hours). That said, WCPCW21 is quite full, but we can accommodate a few more. In addition, we have not yet started to select posters for oral presentations. So it is still possible, especially for graduate students and postdocs, to give an oral presentation. Look forward to meeting every one in Monterey! Best, John

RapiData: Seats are available - the deadline is in 10 days for our course on Data Collection and Structure Solving at the NSLS.
by Robert Sweet 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

We will present RapiData 2013, the fifteenth offering of our popular course: Rapid Data Collection and Structure Solving at the NSLS: A Practical Course in Macromolecular X-Ray Diffraction Measurement The course will be held 21-26 April 2013: http://www.bnl.gov/RapiData/. Students could be at any level from advanced undergraduate to full professor. The course should accommodate 48 students total. We encourage all students to bring their own specimens for data collection, and to bring old data for the data-reduction and structure-solving tutorials. Please read the Course Announcement at http://www.bnl.gov/RapiData/. You'll see that many experts in the field will be available for lectures and tutorials. You'll find the application materials on the Course Application tab at this site. For the eleventh time we will hold a short lecture course on the fundamentals of crystallography for roughly five hours on Sunday 21 April. The body of the RapiData course really requires that students have a healthy knowledge of crystallography. For potential students who have some experience but are shaky about fundamentals, this course will help. There will be a small additional fee for the fundamentals course, to pay for Saturday night accomodations and food on Sunday morning and noon. Latin American Scientists: Several scholarships are available, from the International Union of Crystallography, to pay partial travel and subsistence costs for Latin-American students and junior faculty (under 40 yrs). Please apply for the course, and then contact R. Sweet (sweet(a)bnl.gov) if you are interested in applying for a scholarship.

At this course no barriers will exist beyond the application procedure that would prevent the participation of bona fide scientists.

B-factor calculation
by Wei Shi 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi guys, I am wondering how I can calculate average B-factor in phenix GUI. I read from an old post saying that, the following will give me complete statistics about B-factors, but in pdbtools in phenix GUI, I didn't find how to show adp statistics. phenix.pbdtools your_model.pdb --show-adp-statistics Besides, I am wondering how I can find the B-factor for each residue and plot the variation of B-factor by residue. Thank you so much! Best, Wei
