[modeller_usage] Re: modeller_usage Digest, Vol 4, Issue 90



modeller care taker and users,
 
I am new user to the modeler, I have started with the basic tutorial, I have difficulty with plotting the dope scores with GNU plot,
when I plot the two dat files '1bdma_dope.dat','TVLDH_dope.dat'(from the tutorials folder) I get the graph plotted(Dope score vs Residue Index), but the two graphs are not aligned, as shown in the tutorial html file. how to align the graphs. hope someone could help me with this silly doubt.

Modeller does not do anything special for transmembrane proteins; it
simply extracts restraints from the template structures. Note, however,
that Modeller's internal database of protein alignments, used to derive
statistics, include no transmembrane proteins, so it may not behave as
well as for globular systems.

Subject: Re: [modeller_usage] Modelling nucleic acids
Hello Modeller Users

Charlotte, thank you for your reply. However, I have included the number
of nucleic acid residues in the description line of the structure and
sequence.

Actually, I have tried to model both the case of only nucleic acids, as
well as the case of protein+nucleic acids.

(1) Modelling only nucleic acids - results in the following error:
rdpdb___303E> No atoms were read from the specified input PDB file, since
the starting residue number and/or chain id in MODEL_SEGMENT (or the
alignment file header) was not found; requested starting position:  FIRST:
@

(2) Modelling protein+nucleic acid - results in the following error:
csrrng__299E> Atom index is out of bounds:     7621     7620
nselat__596E> Atom index is out of range (iatm,natm):     7621     7620

I have a question:
Will Modeller allow for modelling only nucleic acids (without protein), or
does it need to have the nucleic acids modelled along with protein?

I am still unable to model nucleic acids (either by itself or with
protein) using Modeller and would appreciate any suggestions on
corrections/changes to make.

With thanks and regards
Nisha

Subject: [modeller_usage] DOPE score
Hello,

Does anyone out there know if it is possible to find a description of the DOPE
score? I have been searching the manual, the MODELLER web-site and the www...

Thanks in advance
Leyla

The description in the manual is at
http://salilab.org/modeller/manual/node155.html

The method is still in development, so currently that is the only
documentation. A fuller description will be in the DOPE paper when it is
published.
