I want to create a model based on two templates. How can I constraint few selected positions, so they would preserve (if possible) side-chain conformation of one of the templates?
Modeller doesn't really work this way for sidechains, particularly when you have multiple templates. The restraints don't act to make the sidechains look like the templates, merely to keep them in an appropriate class (energy well). But if you want to keep a certain sidechain in a certain conformation, you can add your own restraints to do that.
