Hi, >Running Modeller8v1 I am getting the following error message: >IOError: openf5__225E> File does not exist: file-not-found >pdbnam__217W> Filename for PDB code not found: adsl.B99990001.pdb > Directories: ./ > Extensions : :.atm:.pdb:.ent:.crd >openf5__224_> Open 11 OLD SEQUENTIAL file-not-found >openf5__225E> File does not exist: file-not-found Does anyone have a suggestion why it is happening !? You should take about DOS extensions: rename your file for example (adsl_B99990001.pdb), it should be only one ".pdb" extension. Also make attention for the subdirectory you put the PDB file, env.io.atom_files_directory = './:../atom_files/' Hope this help, Riadh HAMMAMI UNIVERSITY OF TUNIS EL MANAR, TUNISIA

how to create .ali file
by sankari thirumal 10 Oct '05

10 Oct '05

Dear all, Psiblast search could find a template for my protein sequence with low identity (19%). So i preferred mgenTHREADER. I got the alignment results form genthreader. Now i don't know how to create the .ali file i have a aligned text file and .aln file. Now what is command for creating the .ali file and what are the files i need to make changes in the files (scripts) with my own target sequence. But the psiblast hit and the mgentreader results are not the same. Can I trust the mgenthreader results.? thanks in advance sankari --------------------------------- Yahoo!

Hi, 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. prabhakar

No optimization
by mathieu coincon 06 Oct '05

06 Oct '05

Hi, I had a structure where a 15-residues loop is missing. So I want to create it but without moving the other atoms. I tried a lot of things (md_level= None, and so...) but I wasn't able to obtain a model where the non-loop atoms stayed in place. I think that there is still an optimization I can't stop. After that I could try to optimize my loop with the refine_loop.py from the advanced tutorial but first I need my model. Can someone help me please?

Modelling nucleic acids
by nisha＠ncbs.res.in 05 Oct '05

05 Oct '05

Hello Modeller Caretaker I request your help with modelling nucleic acids using Modeller. Reading through the archives, I have done the following: (1) modified the restyp.lib file for Modeller to recognise my 1-letter codes for the nucleic acids (ADE, THY, GUA, CYT), with the modified contents of the file as below: 112 | ADE | ! | ADE | 114 | CYT | + | CYT | 120 | GUA | ^ | GUA | 136 | THY | & | THY | (2) modified my pdb file to include the 3-letter pdb codes (ADE, CYT, GUA, THY) instead of 1-letter pdb codes (A,C,G,T,) in columns 18-20 of the residue name, and (3) have used the alignment of the modified nucleic acid codes (as specified in restyp.lib) in my alignment file. However, I still get a bunch of warnings and a couple of errors; and I am unable to understand what changes I need to make to model nucleic acids using Modeller. This is the final error although I cannot find any correction to make to my alignment file: 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: @. I would appreciate your suggestions as to what I am doing incorrectly. With thanks and regards Nisha

modeling of transmembrane proteins
by Akansha Saxena 04 Oct '05

04 Oct '05

Hello Modeller caretaker, I used modeller to build a model for transmembrane protein (its an ion channel). The model is fine but has variations from the template structure. I wanted to know does modeller uses some different constraints for a transmembrane protein or it is similar to all other proteins. Akansha __________________________________ Yahoo!

modelling of complexes
by Arnout Voet 04 Oct '05

04 Oct '05

dear modellers, I am wondering what the best approaches are to model complexes using modeller. How would a model best be modelled if: If you have the a pdb file with multiple chains and also multiple unknowns. Is the appropriate way then to make your knowns the different chains and your unknown query one chain separated by '\' Or can multiple unknown sequences be used? you have X different proteins with unknown 3D structure which are homologue with a big protein which has several domains (all in 1 connected chain crystallized). Would the best method be make 1 alligment of your unknown with the crystal and devide the chain by a '\' you have an unknown which is a complex in one amino acid chain and you have a homologue complex which is actually two different chains in the crystal structure. Is the best way in such a case to change the crystal structure to a one chain model? Or simply allign both chains with the one query chain? kind regards arnout voet Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm
