Hi John,

thanks for feedback, this is very valuable as I'm still gaining experience with FEM and tuning the protocol based on it.

I can't tell what exactly happens unless I have data and model files and can reproduce the map you get. Would mind sharing the files off list so I can have a closer look?

Thanks!

Well, this is embarrassing...the assign label window was hiding behind the graphics window.

Now that I do see the FEM, I have an observation about the FEM. Although the FEM is providing an informative assessment of the protein and bound ligands, the assessment of water is a little strange. There are several water molecules that have strong 2Fo-Fc density but absolutely zero FEM density. Even if I contour the FEM down to the lowest possible value (0.09 sigma in this case), I still see no FEM density on these waters. The waters in question have good hydrogen bonding to the protein and acceptable B-factors (26-30 Ang^2). These are waters that I would normally keep in my final model. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Some examples are posted here:

Hi John,

it does not open via Auto Open MTZ.

start Coot then

File -> Open MTZ, mmCIF, fcf or phs -> the choose FEM,PHIFEM (there are two Fourier maps in this file : FEM and usual 2mFo-DFc).

Has anyone had problems reading feature enhanced map mtz files into coot? I made an FEM on a linux computer with phenix.fem, which created an mtz file:

-rw-r--r-- 1 tannerjj tanner 10760960 Sep 7 12:21 fem.mtz

As you can see, the mtz file is not empty. The fem job appeared to have ended normally, since the last line in the out file is

FEM loop: done so far: 100%Time: 3112.3967

However, when I read this mtz into coot, the map does not appear. There is no error message from coot. I tried autoinput mtz and read mtz. I'm using coot on a mac. I have not tested with coot on Linux.

Thanks.
