Re: [modeller_usage] modeller_usage Digest, Vol 8, Issue 60



Hi,
I need to do a de novo 3D model because I was't able to find any similar structural to compare.
thanks,

You can evaluate the model quality with the DOPE score (the model with
the lowest DOPE score is most likely to be the best) in the same way as
the single template example. It doesn't matter how many templates were
used to build the model - the evaluation is of the model itself, not the
alignment.

my another question is that how can we draw the "basic model" and
multiple templates in the same diagram with GUNplot?

If you're referring to the plot of DOPE score profiles, shown at the end of the basic tutorial, such a plot is only qualitative at best. You can
only plot a single profile in GNUPLOT, because with multiple
profiles you have to account for the gaps. This is done by the
plot_profiles script in the basic tutorial. To plot multiple templates,
it should be straightforward to modify that script, adding extra calls
to get_profile() and pylab.plot().

Hi,

I am modeling a cytochrome P450, I am able to include the heme in my model. However, in the templates the heme iron is bound to a cys residue, but I loose this bond in the model. How can I go about keeping it in my model?

Thanks
Karl

If you have a CYS residue in your model aligned with that template
residue, then Modeller should automatically keep that bond in your model
(see the third bullet point at
http://salilab.org/modeller/9v7/manual/node65.html). This does, however, require Modeller 9v5 or later. The heuristic is a simple one though - if
the bond is longer than 2.3A you could just add a simple distance
restraint to approximate this interaction. But really to do this
properly you need to tell Modeller that that CYS residue is not really a 'CYS' but is a modified residue (i.e. that it has a bond to your iron).
For that you'd need to patch your topology using the model.patch()
command and some knowledge of how CHARMM patches work, which can be
gleaned from the CHARMM manual.

Subject: [modeller_usage] remove short helices
Message-ID: <>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes

Hi,

When I view my structural model as a cartoon, it contains several
short 'helices', composed of only three residues each. The template
pdb shows each of these regions as unstructured loops. Therefore, I
would like to remove these short helices from my model. Is there a
simple way to remove secondary structure?

Note, I have tried loop refinement; it worked on a couple of my short
helices, but has failed to fix my last one.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks.
