Help needed from the "chain" users:
Has anybody tried in "chain" to bring up a density map computed
after PROTEIN and MAPAGE?
1) This test.dn6 file was created on VAX using PROTEIN & MAPAGE
2) Then ftp to unix (sgi 4d/35) with binary flag ON
3) Then the dn6 file was converted to a chain map file (test.1) using
the vax_map utility program.
4) Then the map program was invoked in chain(which gives error reading file)
and the following script sumerises the problem that I have.
I am unable to display any density. I have NO problem displaying a map
produced from X-PLOR program. I would appreciate if any one who is using
protein (of Prof. Steigemann) maps in "chain" could help me.
thanks
