assume, I have a PDB file template with some residues missing, e.g. 5 Amino
acids at the beginning, 10 in the middle and 2 at the end of the sequence.
Now, I use Modeller to complete the template (I align the PDB to its
sequence) and use it for homology modelling.
Is this a common procedure? What do you think about it? Will the completed
template be reliable or should I leave the gaps of the template unfixed in
homology modelling?
Thanks in advance,
