Subject: apologies


Dear subscribers,

a number of people complained about my posting an entire program to CCL,
and suggested that I give an ftp URL instead of wasting precious bandwidth.

Let me point out in my defense that I checked the list WWW pages for submission
instructions and that what I came up with was the following:
http://www.ccl.net/ccl/welcome.html
>
>
> Topics which may appear on the list include:
>
>[...]
> *Programs and utilities
> [...]
> If you are posting a long file (e.g. a program), please split it into
> chunks which are smaller than 50 KBytes. Always identify the part number
> and total number of parts in the Subject line (e.g. NiceDraw Part 2 of
> 5).
> [...]

So I just did what it *says* in these pages.

Nevertheless, I apologize for any long downloads and aggravation I may have
caused people who do not receive their mail on Unix boxes and had their
modems clogged up by my "garbage". The package is now up for download by
FTP at:

ftp://www.ccl.net/pub/chemistry/software/SOURCES/FORTRAN/gar2ped

Future updates and/or corrections will be made to the FTP file *only*, and
only announcements will sent out to the list.

As a final note, I would respectfully suggest that the moderator update the
above submission information.

Sincerely,
Jan Martin

Hi, I'm not a chemist but a programmer, and I've written several
hundred general-purpose algorithms that might be useful for you.
The algorithms let you generate and process rna and turn the results
into amino acids. Let me know if such program is needed, and what 
other features it should have.

I'm not a regular on this list and would appreciate answers directly
to my email.

Here is an example of how a recursive van kock gene can be constructed.
Implement it in an organism and we might get interesting new properties,
designed with mathematical perfection from the algorithm library of:

        - fractals       - chaos
        - lsystems       - fourier synthesis
        - autocatalysis  - neurons
        - energy fields  - fibonacci numbers
        - loops          - morphs
        - transforms     - interpolations
        - palindromes    - variations
        - divisions      - primes
        - solar systems  - rna
        - clusters       - proportions
        - permutations   - rotations
 
You can also process existing genes with the above. Morph eye to ear,
or permute hiv hxb2 env gene, experiment if a rotated fibonacci neuron
structure performs better than non-rotated, loop genes for better 
beef productivity, etc.

; define recursive kock-curve

(def-grammar 'koch-curve
   axiom (f + f + f + f)
   f (f + f - f - f f + f + f - f)
   - (-)
   + (+)
   < (<)
   > (>)
)

; define neuron to convert linear symbols to rna symbols

(def-neuron symbols-to-rna
   (in 1 'a) 
   'u 
   (in 1 'b) 
   'g 
   (in 1 'c) 
   't 
   (in 1 'd)

)

; generate master-rna from kock-curve in 3 recursion levels, and scale the
; symbols into rna symbols

(setq master-rna
      (run-neuron 'symbols-to-rna
          (symbol-scale '(a d) 
              (gen-lsystem axiom 3 '(f + - < >) 'koch-curve))))

Janet,

The makers of ChemDraw can probably help you here. I can think of several
easier ways to deal with this problem:

1. Export from SYBYL and open in Chem3D. Then export from Chem3D to ChemDraw
format.

2. Contact us about our upcoming support of SMILES in ChemDraw 4.0. This
would remove several steps in your process.

3. Move the files through ChemFinder, which already has links between
Chem3D, ChemDraw and FileMaker.

Everything can be done via AppleScript once the files are moved to the
Macintosh.

Let me know how I can help.

Dear All,

I am looking for any computational studies (particularly, but not 
necesssarily, DFT )which have been carried out on histidine radicals (neutral,
cationic and +2 charged) or on related  truncated species, such as 
4Me-Imidazole.

I am particularly interested in calculated vibrational frequencies and/or 
mode assignments for these species.

If anyone could point me in a useful direction I would be most grateful.

Regards.
