Hi everybody,
thanks for all the suggestions how to solve my problem with reading
an alignment file (see below). The solution was to remove all spaces
from the alignment!

Subject: problem reading alignment file
Hi,
I'm using the WINDOWS version of MODELLER6v2
I get the following error when reading the template and alignment files:
>
>TOP_________> 121 107 CHECK_ALIGNMENT
>
>check_a_343_> >> BEGINNING OF COMMAND
>openf5__224_> Open 11 OLD SEQUENTIAL myt.atm
>rdabrk__290E> Number of residues in the alignment and pdb files are
different: 433 392
the problem seems to be that MODELLER doesn't understand the gap residue
'-', as it also
doesn't understand '/' (using '/' gives an error stating it doesn't know
this residue)!
I tried including a link called RESTYP_LIB to restyp.lib in the libs.lib
file, but that didn't help.
