Re: [modeller_usage] Antibody Modelling



I have tried both way and end up with different problem.

1) By editing the non-loop regions in loop templates.
The resulted model contains a very strange loop region (the orientation of loop, which bends very high and leads to RMSD >5 for loop region backbone alone).
So I tried to fix this problem by increasing the flanking conserved regions of the loops.But still I am getting the same problem.

2) By listing the sequence in aligment file as per usual
Here I couldnot make the alingment for all four templates. Since the sequence length for one template is ~110 amino acids.

If I use the 2nd way by using the templates one by one keeping the each resulted model as myinitial model for modelling the next loop, Will it be a correct model ?

Please give me your valuable suggestions...

You can just build a model using the four templates you have above,
using essentially the alignment you show (except using - for a gap
rather than x, of course). If your LOOP-* templates actually have
additional structure (e.g. coordinates for the non-loop regions) then
you can either edit the PDB file and take that structure out, or list
that sequence in the alignment file as per usual (just align it with
gaps in the target sequence, so that that structure isn't used in the
model).
