Re: [phenixbb] (no subject)

I think my problem in MR has been one of the chains. Anyway I tried the ideas you suggested and seems like they worked! I used ensembler to create a merged pdb of the problematic chain and used phaser giving both chains as multiple ensembles. It gave me a solution with LLG=474 (highest I have got so far) and TFZ=18.8. I also tried MRage and got a solution with LLG=294. In both these maps, the density for chain1 ("bad chain") is not as good as the other chain but is nonetheless far better than what I have got before. I am currently running autobuild on the solution hoping my Rfactors would be reasonable this time. Thanks a lot for your inputs. They really helped!!

In this case I suggest that the most likely issue is the search model (I assume your molecule is fairly small given the unit cell dimensions). I would look at ways to create the best search model using using tools like sculptor and ensembler. You can get Phaser to search for the two domains in the same run but using multiple ensembles. You might also want to try MRage in Phenix, where you can just provide the data file and the sequence and it will try to make the best model and solve the MR problem.

Oh I see. I tried to repeat xtriage with the scala.mtz file and am attaching the log file.

Even i thought so but after i run mosflm and process the data in p21 or p1 and run quicksymm/quickscale it always suggests that the chosen space group is not correct and that it should be p212121.

I will try looking into Zanuda. Thanks.

It looks like your R-merge etc in P222 is very high, what leads you to think this is the correct point group? Can you send the xtriage output for the unmerged P2 data?

Hi Nat,

I am attaching the Xtriage log file from p222.mtz. Would you need anything else (mtz,pdb)?

Thanks, Sneha
