[phenixbb] NCS in mr_rosetta

[Terwilliger, Thomas C]

Hi Stefan,

Normally mr_rosetta figures out the NCS from the MR solution itself, as opposed to using anything in the data.  It would seem that the MR step should have found 3 copies and then mr_rosetta should have noticed that.  I wonder if somehow the MR step didn't find multiple copies?

All the best,
Tom T

I have data from a crystal in sg P21 with a clear 3-fold axis perpendicular to the two-fold screw (as seen in self rotation function), and most likely 6 molecules in the asymmetric unit, but none of the mr_rosetta solutions that have appeared so far show 3-fold symmetry, and it doesn’t seem like the ncs is used in the search. The only info about ncs in mr_rosetta I have been able to find online pertains to extracting NCS from search models or mr_rosetta assembled models.
