[modeller_usage] error using mutate_model.py

[Anna Marabotti <>]

Hi,

I tried to apply the script mutate_model.py to introduce a single point mutation on a protein, and I obtained an error: I'm attaching here the .log file.

From the error message, I see that mutate_model seems to be unable to manage a protein with chain breaks. I can obviously follow the suggestion and relabel the chains of my protein; however, chain breaks are a quite common situation in PDB files, therefore I wonder if there is a way to correct this problem without changing the chain ID as suggested in the log file (which is formally uncorrect since I don't have multiple chains in my protein).

Any help will be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance and best regards

Anna Marabotti
