ambiguous ligand density

Sorry, I meant judging by distances it is not experiencing interaction in the form of H-bonds. Which I think is concerning.

ambiguous ligand density

Hi Pavel, What I meant it was just that the 2mFo-2DFc map looks really great and corroborates experimental data as far as the stereochemistry. But I dont understand ehy the carbonyl moiety of the ligand would be where it is now, no "driving force to be here". And when I look at my averaged kick and SA omit map it looks ambiguous. Any help?

ambiguous ligand density
by Pompeu,Yuri Alexey Andreiw 09 Mar '11

Hello everyone, I have this strucuture I solved by Molecular replacement. It is a single mutant of previously solved enzyme. I started refining it and fit the ligand in a way that gives me the experimental stereochemistry. The final map 2mFo-2DFc looks great. After further examination I noticed, I have a carbonyl that does not seem to be bound to anything !!! I started looking at my average kick and SA composit omit-map prior to modeling in the ligand and now I am really lost. Could anyone help? Thank you

Important change in phenix.refine output: MTZ file with data and map coefficients
by Pavel Afonine 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Hi Everyone, starting development version dev-686: http://www.phenix-online.org/download/nightly_builds.cgi phenix.refine does not output *map_coeffs.mtz file. Instead, it creates prefix_serial.mtz file (example: lysozime_001.mtz) containing four sections: - section 1: Original input data (Iobs or Fobs, and HL coefficients if provided) and flags (as supplied in input); - section 2: Experimental data used in refinement (labels: F-obs-filtered, SIGF-obs-filtered). This can be different from "Original data" due to Iobs->Fobs conversion (if input data are intensities) and outliers filtering; - section 3: Contains total model structure factors (labels: F-model, PHIF-model) used everywhere in refinement (for the formula, see: http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/fmodel.htm). In the future, this section might be extended to explicitly list all contributions to Fmodel, such as Fcalc (corresponding to atomic model), Fbulk (bulk solvent contribution), and so on. - section 4: Fourier map coefficients (exactly the same as used to be in *map_coeffs.mtz file). This change is meant to reduce the confusion when people tended to use *map_coeffs.mtz file for refinement and PDB deposition, and facilitates the reproduction of refinement statistics (R-factors, for example). Also, thanks to Jeff Headd, by default phenix.refine now converts input intensities (Iobs) to amplitudes (Fobs) using French & Wilson method (Acta Cryst A34, 517, 1978), so no need to run a specific program (Truncate, for example) to do this. To see the content of a MTZ file use phenix.mtz.dump command: phenix.mtz.dump data.mtz Pavel.

Geometry problem with sugars refined in phenix
by Tirumala Kumar Chowdary 03 Mar '11

03 Mar '11

Hi, I have refined a structure with NAGs linked to ASNs at 3 places in my structure. I used the right link definitions and the NAG definitions are from Phenix library. Phenix refined all the sugars right and made the right links between the NAGs. However, while submitting, PDB found problem with the geometry of NAGs linked to the ASN at two places. This is the issue -the atoms around C1 atom of the sugar molecule NAG A #810 and NAG A #1670 are on a plane and the C1 atom center is far off to be tetrahedral. Please, verify the chirality of C1 and provide the correct coordinates if necessary.- Any ideas on how to fix the geometry of these sugars will be of great help. Regularization and real space refine in Coot is not working or I don't know how to do it. I am looking for alternative ways to fix this problem. Thank You Tirumal

Glycan Links/Restraints
by Damian Ekiert 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Sorry to bring up an old topic again but I can't find any documentation of glycan refinement on the Phenix website and previous threads don't seem to answer my question. I am refining a structure with N-linked glycans. I have inserted several "apply_cif_link" records to my .eff file to define the glycan topologies (see below) and fed in a cif file for BMA. After fiddling for quite some time now, I have managed to get around all the error messages people have described previously to disappear. Yet, 1) none of my linkages appear to be enforced and 2) even the restraints on the individual sugars appear to be unenforced (or at least, insufficiently so). For example, some rings are rendered almost flat, or flipped into boat or otherwise distorted conformations, and glycosidic bonds stretch to >2 A. No obvious signs of trouble in the log file, running the latest version (1.7, also tried 1.6.4), but my glycans look terrible (despite some of the best density I have ever seen! :-) ) Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks, Damian Ekiert >From my .eff file: apply_cif_link { data_link = NAG-ASN residue_selection_1 = chain X and resname NAG and resid 401 residue_selection_2 = chain A and resname ASN and resid 91 } apply_cif_link { data_link = NAG-ASN residue_selection_1 = chain Y and resname NAG and resid 401 residue_selection_2 = chain C and resname ASN and resid 91 } apply_cif_link { data_link = NAG-ASN residue_selection_1 = chain Z and resname NAG and resid 401 residue_selection_2 = chain E and resname ASN and resid 91 } apply_cif_link { data_link = BETA1-4 residue_selection_1 = chain X and resname NAG and resid 402 residue_selection_2 = chain X and resname NAG and resid 401 } apply_cif_link { data_link = BETA1-4 residue_selection_1 = chain Y and resname NAG and resid 402 residue_selection_2 = chain Y and resname NAG and resid 401 } apply_cif_link { data_link = BETA1-4 residue_selection_1 = chain Z and resname NAG and resid 402 residue_selection_2 = chain Z and resname NAG and resid 401 } apply_cif_link { data_link = BETA1-4 residue_selection_1 = chain Y and resname BMA and resid 403 residue_selection_2 = chain Y and resname NAG and resid 402 } apply_cif_link { data_link = ALPHA1-3 residue_selection_1 = chain Y and resname MAN and resid 404 residue_selection_2 = chain Y and resname BMA and resid 403 }

Implementation of French & Wilson data correction?
by Joseph Noel 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Hi All, Any pointers on implementing the new option in the latest build for French & Wilson correction? Does scala output negative intensities so that a proper scaling with this new option can be used? Also, what column labels should be used particularly for proper treatment of anomalous data? Can one use the labels output by scala? Joe ___________________________________________________________ Joseph P. Noel, Ph.D. Investigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor, The Jack H.
