Basic NMR - great book!

I have found a great book that explains NMR in so simple words, recommend it so much for students and people who wants to refresh basic in simple words. Everyone can understand NMR with this book!

Pocket guide to biomolecular NMR

Description from Google Books:

Steering clear of quantum mechanics and product operators, "Pocket Guide to Biomolecular NMR" uses intuitive, concrete analogies to explain the theory required to understand NMR studies on the structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules. For example, instead of explaining nuclear spin with angular momentum equations or Hamiltonians, the books describes nuclei as "bells" in a choir, ringing at specific frequencies depending on the atom type and their surrounding electromagnetic environment.This simple bell analogy, which is employed throughout the book, has never been used to explain NMR and makes it surprisingly easy to learn complex, bewildering NMR concepts, such as dipole-dipole coupling and CPMG pulse sequences. Other topics covered include the basics of multi-dimensional NMR, relaxation theory, and Model Free analysis. The small size and fast pace of “Pocket Guide to Biomolecular NMR” makes the book a perfect companion to traditional biophysics and biochemistry textbooks, but the book's unique perspective will provide even seasoned spectroscopists with new insights and handy “thought” short-cuts.

Thesis stuff - PyMOL - how to remove alternative conformation; renumbering, measuring distances with 2 decimals

Sometimes I'm googling stuff. How to do something.. And I'm forgetting then. Or writing on paper. But better to keep it on-line, so other googlers can find it, too ;) Thanks for  http://randomthesisstuff.blogspot.co.uk/  useful! Another great one -  http://www.keepcalmandpublishpapers.com/ So PyMOL,  alternative conformation . It makes messy some of my calculations to keep alternative conformations, so to remove it, simply type: PyMOL>remove not (alt ''+A) PyMOL>alter all, alt='' But it's choosing conformation A, not that with higher occupancy! See here -  https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Property_Selectors#Alternate_Locations Alternatively in  Phenix  - Model tools - pdb tools - options - remove alternate conformers, but it gave me the same output as PyMOL, conformation A, not higher occupancy. You can do it in  Coot , but then (probably?) have to go from residue to residue (with double occupancy), I didn't find how to do it for whole

How to make gif from PyMOL - easily!

Firstly, save your movie as png images. You can set_view/get_view to have the right orientation. To save scenes go to > scene > store > F 1/2/3... then > Movie > Program > Scene Loop I use usually: Nutate > 30 deg. over 4 sec. > file > save movie as png images then for 300 images you can easily use http://gifmaker.me/ (quite slow even with highest speed) or https://ezgif.com/maker up to 2000 files (delay time 1 makes a nice speed) or it's easy to find some png to gif conventer online

phasing (pseudo) 3D spectrum in TopSpin

1. Open your 3D processed spectrum. 2. Click on "show F2-F3 plane" (button "23" in TopSpin 3.2) xfb 3. Select plane orientation: "23" 4. Select plane number: "1" 5. Enter new PROCNO: can be "231" 6. Interactive phase correction 7. Add 3 points, then "R" - start the phase correction on rows 8. Phase and save. 7. Save for 3D spectrum (second button after "R") 8. Return to 3D spectrum. 9. process: tf3 and tf2 check you F2-F3 plane and enjoy! ;-)
