چکیده

An account is given of the molecular replacement method as implemented in the package AMoRe. The overall strategy of the method is presented and the main functions used in the package are described. The most important features of AMoRe are the quality of the fast rotation and translation functions and the facility of multiple inputs to translation and rigid-body refinement functions, which allow for a fast multiple exploration of crystal configurations with a high level of automation.

Creating structure features by data mining the PDB to use as molecular-replacement models.

Mathematical data-mining techniques to generate a representative set of protein fragments are described. Protein fragments are used as search models within the macromolecular phasing method of molecular replacement to attempt to phase protein data without a homologous model correctly. Preliminary investigations using these fragments indicate that molecular replacement with AMoRe is not sensitiv...

On the solution of the molecular-replacement problem at very low resolution: application to large complexes.

The applicability of the molecular-replacement (MR) method, implemented through the AMoRe package [Navaza (1994). Acta Cryst. A50, 157-163], is studied at very low resolution (d > 20 A) and for very large molecular complexes. Due to the nature of the low-resolution data, specific problems appear. In particular, rotation-function peaks are very broad and translation functions based on Patterson ...

From electron microscopy to X-ray crystallography: molecular-replacement case studies

Multi-component molecular complexes are increasingly being tackled by structural biology, bringing X-ray crystallography into the purview of electron-microscopy (EM) studies. X-ray crystallography can utilize a low-resolution EM map for structure determination followed by phase extension to high resolution. Test studies have been conducted on five crystal structures of large molecular assemblie...

Molecular replacement in the 'twilight zone': structure determination of the non-haem iron oxygenase NovR from Streptomyces spheroides through repeated density modification of a poor molecular-replacement solution.

Crystals of recombinant NovR (subunit MW = 29 924 Da; 270 amino acids), a non-haem iron oxygenase from Streptomyces spheroides, were grown by vapour diffusion. The protein crystallized in space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 86.69, b = 139.38, c = 100.82 A, beta = 101.18 degrees . Native data were collected to a resolution of 2.1 A from a single crystal at a synchrotron and a molecular...
