RIBER/DIBER: a software suite for crystal content analysis in the studies of protein–nucleic acid complexes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Co-crystallization experiments of proteins with nucleic acids do not guarantee that both components are present in the crystal. We have previously developed DIBER to predict crystal content when protein and DNA are present in the crystallization mix. Here, we present RIBER, which should be used when protein and RNA are in the crystallization drop. The combined RIBER/DIBER suite builds on machine learning techniques to make reliable, quantitative predictions of crystal content for non-expert users and high-throughput crystallography.

Abstract: Two new transition metal complexes, containing the acidic ligand 5-chlorosalicylic acid (H2L5), and 1,10-phenanthroline(phen) and 1,3-Di(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp) as secondary ligands are reported. They are formulated as {[Pb(HL5)2(phen)(H2O)]·H2O}n(1), [Zn2(HL5)4(bpp)2]n(2). All the complexes are characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffractions. Compoud 1 crystallizes in the triclini...
