[RASMB] error estimates and F-statistics in Sedphat

[Mark Agacan]

Thanks Patrick and Chad for the information about error estimates from F-statistics.
 
My problem now is that the apparent errors for the binding constants derived from the analysis of F-statistic appear to be very large.  When I make a change to e.g. log10Ka12, by any value from 0.1 - 3.0, there is no change (or only a very small change) in chi squared, so I can never reach the critical chi squared.  
 
Each dataset looks good and gives low rmsd values when processing with the c(s) model in sedfit.  I'm using the monomer-dimer self-association model in sedphat, with the values for S1 and S2 taken from c(s) analysis.  I have tried to fit to other models with only worse results.
 
The fit looks very poor (see screenshots attached).  I don't think I need to repeat the experiment because the data looks good, at least to my eye, but the fit to the monomer-dimer model seems very bad.  
 
Any further suggestions or advice would be very welcome.
 
Many Thanks,
 
Mark

Hi, Mark,

The F-statistics in SEDPHAT are meant to allow you to construct a "do-it-yourself" error interval.  Check out the statistics help page.  Under the heading "Error Analysis" there is a procedure for how to use the output "critical chi-square" from the Statistics Menu to find an error interval.

Cheers,
Chad

Hello,
 
I'm calculating errors in the binding constants in sedphat as instructed in the statistics help page, but I don't appear to get an output for the F-statistics.  Are the F-stats output only as (changes in) chi-squared values? e.g. the error associated with the binding constants is clearly given in the covariance matrix.
 
Best Wishes,
 
Mark
