pdb_extract - Latest Release Notes

August 3, 2011: The pdb_extract version V3.11 is now released

The improvements of version V3.11 compared to the previous version V3.10 are the following:

  • Modified extraction for REMARK 200 for hybrid methods.
  • For REFMAC, change the default NCS residue range (-10 9999) to what is there in the PDB file.
  • Modified extraction of COMPND/SOURCE in a PDB file.
  • Modified function align_use_seqres (memory problem).
  • Add three new data items:
  • Removed a potential bug in parsing TLS residue range for BUSTER.
  • Corrected parsing of Buster for cases like { ?|* } ?=chainID
  • Corrected mis-match (PHIC and PHIC_ALL) from mtz to mmcif conversion and makestricter parsing for phic(FC with PHIC).
  • Modified _software.classification.
  • Corrected a potential bugs in chain_seq_info (residue ranges for TLS/NCS)

    July 10, 2010: The pdb_extract version V3.10 is now released

    The improvements of version V3.10 compared to the previous version V3.004 are the following:

  • Supports REFMAC version 5.5 and later
  • Supports multiple MTZ file conversion.
  • Has improved handling of NCS data items, even for cases with incomplete data.

  • Automatically removes unit for temperatures

    Sep 17, 2007: The pdb_extract version V3.004 is now released

  • Added the NCS extraction from the log file of program CNS (V1.2)
  • Added statistics extraction from the summary file (in addition to the log file) of the program PHASER (V2.1)
  • Added an option (-sol) in the EXTRACT program to update the Matthew coefficient and solvent constant once given the correct sequence in the template file.
  • Added an option (-chain) to add chain to PDB file if missing.
  • Fixed a bug for data extraction regarding to the anisou record.
  • The data template file now fully corresponds to the ADIT data items.
  • Support for PDB v3.1 nomenclature of atoms and residues.
  • Updated all the Xray program extractions for experiments [MR, SAD, MAD, SIR, SIRAS, MIR, MIRAS, AB_INITIO]
  • Added more error/warning messages in the program.
  • Updated the core mmcif modules to the latest version with the STL feature.
