Diamond Light Source phase III beamline proposal - call for support.
by Johan Turkenburg 03 Jun '11

03 Jun '11

Many of you will already have seen the request for Expressions of Interest for the Diamond phase III proposal for "A versatile microfocus beamline with an in-situ side station for macromolecular crystallography at DIAMOND". As one of the co-proposers I would like to urge you to support this proposal and write a letter to this effect. We need as many as possible! Details of the proposal can be found here, with a link where your letter of support can be uploaded: http://www.diamond.ac.uk/Home/Beamlines/PhaseIII/ExpressionsofInterest.html You may already have been contacted by other colleagues in the MX community but this is of high importance to the structural community as a whole, and we especially invite our international colleagues to provide support for this initiative. To help us collate these EOI's and comment on any additional feedback you may have, we would ask you to do this by June 8th. Johan Dr. Johan P. Turkenburg X-ray facilities manager York Structural Biology Laboratory University of York Phone (+) 44 1904 328251 York YO10 5DD UK Fax (+) 44 1904 328266

elbow question
by wtempel 03 Jun '11

03 Jun '11

Dear colleagues, am I alone in thinking that in my example phenix.elbow gave me more than what I was asking for, specifically atom H11 attached to sulfur? Is it added by elbow, or does it originate from the "--chem=tpp" input? Best regards, Wolfram Tempel command line: phenix.elbow --chem=tpp --mogul phenix version: 1.7.1-743

Re: [phenixbb] rosetta_mr autobuild failure - typo fixed
by Thomas C. Terwilliger 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hi again Joe, Typo below (csh vs bash) fixed in this version of the message. -Tom Hi Joe, I'm sorry for the problems in running mr_rosetta! Getting the set up to work is appearing to be a bit of a challenge, particularly on a mac. So the first problem is this: "dyld: Library not loaded: /Applications/rosetta3.2_bundles/rosetta_source/build/src/release/macos/10.5/64/x86/gcc/libdevel.dylib Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/rosetta/rosetta_source/bin/mr_protocols.default.macosgccrelease Reason: image not found" In the cases that have come up so far, there have been two problems. Here are the solutions to those two problems: 1. The installation of Rosetta cannot be moved after it is compiled. This is because the path to the libraries (as in the error message above) is compiled into Rosetta. So...if you moved this installation around at all, try remaking the installation and keeping it in its original location. 2. In some cases the path to the libraries can be conflicting between PHENIX and some other definition on your system. In this case you can try the following shell command (before running phenix.mr_rosetta): with csh: setenv PHENIX_TRUST_OTHER_ENV 1 or with bash or sh: export PHENIX_TRUST_OTHER_ENV=1 Hopefully...one of those will fix this problem. Now the second problem...I am not sure what the actual error is in this one. The error message you got is not helpful as you say because it refers to a file path on the machine where I created the test. That path does not actually have to exist however (I just ran the test on another machine that is not connected to that directory and it runs fine). This means there is some other problem that is the real one. (I will get rid of this error message so this won't happen in the future). Can you try this: 1. reproduce the problem: phenix_regression.wizards.test_command_line_rosetta_quick_tests \ test_autobuild 2. have a look at the log files: cat run.log # if not empty, may give a big clue more test_autobuild_current.log # look at end of this file for clues 3. the test_autobuild_current.log log file may refer to a sub-process where the actual problem occurs: Log file for autobuilding will be: /Users/terwill/unix/misc/junk/test_autobuild/WORK_1/autobuild.log in this case that autobuild log file, and files in WORK_1/AutoBuild_run_1_/TEMP0 may give additional clues. Let me know what this shows! All the best, Tom T >> >> Hi all, >> >> I wanted to use the rebuilding feature of Rosetta to help improve the R-fators of MR solution in a new space group.

Setting phenix_env in ubuntu 10 system
by Jobichen Chacko 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Dear All, I recently downloaded and installed phenix 1.7-1-743 on Ubuntu system. I need to run the command " source/usr/local/phenix**/phenix_env.sh" each time to launch the program when running as a command line. If I close that terminal and type the command in a new terminal, it is giving the reply "command not found". How does one set paths so that phenix.refine will be recognized in a new terminal window? I got some suggestiions to edit either ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile and add the appropriate "source" command to it. But when I edit .bashrc phenix is automatically executed when I open a new terminal. I want to run phenix by typing command like "phenix.refine xx.pdb xx.mtz". Please let me know which file I should edit to get this. If possible can any ubuntu user send me a copy of the .bashrc file/or any other required file with environment path for phenix. Thank you for your time. Jobi

Re: [phenixbb] Refining sucrose
by Yuri 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

All coot needs to run its real-space refinement is a .cif file as Nigel pointed out. You can also get this file from other ligand library websites (proDrg, hic-cup, etc...). The only catch here is. The name of your sucrose atoms must match, exactly, those in the file. Once you have such file go to the the file drop-down menu and click on Import CIF dictionary in coot. That should enable to rotate the rotatable bonds of your ligand -- Yuri Pompeu

heavy atoms
by ChenTiantian 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Hi, I am dealing with a complex structure which the ligand contains a atom Iodine, I guess it's because Iodine is heavy atom, the electron density of Iodine turns red after 5 cycles refinement. Anybody coped with similar issue? How to let phenix know that the Iodine atom is part of the ligand?

Phenix MTZ files,
by Saba Ferdous 154-FAS/BSBI/F05 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Dear Phenix users I am new to Phenix..probably my question might be childish to you. so with appologies, I have predicted protein structure by using modeller, i want to refine my structure but i am unable to know that what is MTZ files n CIF files because i have only my PDB. And i want to fix beta deviations and outliers, bad angles and bad bonds in my structure. kindly help me and suggest me that what can i do to refine my structure.
