tls group and anisotropic
by ChenTiantian 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

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?

no density on the anchored proteins
by zhangh1＠umbc.edu 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

Hi, I am using phenix.refine to calculate the map of the 50S RNA (1FFK). It is weird that there is no density on the anchored proteins even for the Fc map. Following is the code I am using: phenix.refine ${f}.pdb ${f}.mtz main.number_of_macro_cycles=0 xray_data.high_resolution=${res} xray_data.r_free_flags.generate=True export_final_f_model=mtz Thanks for any advice!

Re: [phenixbb] rosetta fragment files -- adjusting residue numbers to combine them
by Thomas C. Terwilliger 16 Jun '11

16 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.

rosetta fragment files
by Leonid Sazanov 16 Jun '11

Hi, I am trying to use mr_rosetta with phenix-1.7.1-743 and rosetta 3.2.1. All rosetta tests passed OK. I have several large protein chains in the starting model (already placed). So I had to get several pairs of fragment files from robetta server and list all of them in the script. Then mr_rosetta fails at the REBUILD_1 stage with the message: could not open file (fragment file), although file is definitely there. Is the reason that one can have only two input fragment files (3/9)? Can several fragment files be combined into two 3/9 ones? Thanks -- Dr. Leonid A.

refinement of twinning dataset
by Ms Chiung-Wen Chang 14 Jun '11

14 Jun '11

hi everyone i have some issues with the refinement of my twinning dataset the dataset has 2.1 A resolution the twin fraction is around 0.43 i did not detwin and ran the refinement directly (with twinning refinement) The attached is the polygon so far the R: 0.1905 Rfree: 0.21 RMSD angles: 0.91 bonds: 0.006 clashscore: 28.176 average B: 45.8 are the clashscore and Average B in the reasonable range ? because the pattern of the polygon is looked wired what can I do more to get them better ? thanks for your help : ) Mary

[Fwd: Re: elbow.join_cif_files error]
by Maia Cherney 14 Jun '11

14 Jun '11

Hi, I run command line elbow.join_cif_files ligand1.cif ligand2.cif ligand3.cif. As I understand, ligand1.cif and ligand2.cif are cif files present in the directory, the ligand3.cif should be made after joining the first two cifs. 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 14 Jun '11

14 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
