Dear all, I repeat my mail sent previously to ccp4bb on the same request: Dear Murpholino, there is a couple of articles addressing specifically this issue : Urzhumtsev, A., Afonine, P.V., Lunin, V.Y., Terwilliger, T.C., Adams, P.D. (2014) "Metrics for comparison of crystallographic maps". Acta Cryst., D70, 2593-2606 Urzhumtseva, L., Urzhumtsev, A. (2016) "COMPaRS: stand-alone program for map comparison using quantile rang scaling". J. Appl.Cryst., 49, 2270-2275. Best regards, Sacha Urzhumtsev ________________________________ De : [email protected] de la part de Tom Terwilliger Envoyé : mardi 12 mai 2020 01:00 À : Murpholino Peligro Cc : [email protected] Objet : Re: [phenixbb] How to compare between electron density maps? Hi Murpholino, You can use phenix.map_comparison map1.ccp4 map2.ccp4 contour_to_match=1.035 This will identify the contour in map2.ccp4 that encloses a volume equal to that enclosed by the contour at 1.035 (absolute, not sigma value) in map1.ccp4. The method is described in Afonine, P.V., Klaholz, B.P., Moriarty, N.W., Poon, B.K., Sobolev, O.V., Terwilliger, T.C., Adams, P.D, Urzhumtsev, A. (2018). New tools for the analysis and validation of Cryo-EM maps and atomic models.https://doi.org/10.1107/S2059798318009324 Acta Cryst.

Because each map has a different rmsd level... ...what is the best way to compare electron density between maps? Is there a way to normalize maps or something like that?
