Hi; I am trying to run the following script : # Homology modeling with multiple templates from modeller import * # Load standard Modeller classes from modeller.automodel import * # Load the automodel class log.verbose() # request verbose output env = environ() # create a new MODELLER environment to build this model in # directories for input atom files env.io.atom_files_directory = './:../atom_files' a = automodel(env, alnfile = ’align.ali’, # alignment filename knowns = (’1bkn’, ’1b62’, ’1b63’, ’1nhh’, ’1nhi’, ’1nhj’), # codes of the templates sequence = ’PAOI’) # code of the target a.starting_model= 1 # index of the first model a.ending_model = 50 # index of the last model # (determines how many models to calculate) a.make() # do the actual homology modeling and I get the following error: warning: Non-ASCII character '\xe2' in file model-multiple2.py on line 14, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details File "model-multiple2.py", line 14 alnfile = ’align.ali’, # alignment filename ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax How do I fix my script?

homology modelling vs protein threading
by Thomas Evangelidis 21 Dec '09

21 Dec '09

Dear modellers, I want to build models of ATP-binding domains with sequence identity ranging between 40% and 50%. In the FAQs it says that one needs 35-40% at least to build reliable models. However these models will be used for inhibitor design, therefore the accuracy of the structure prediction method will determine the outcome. Do you reckon the sequence similarity is enough to get a good model of the domain, or should I try other programs based on threading? Is there a way to compare the quality of the structures derived from these 2 different methodologies? I would greatly appreciate any advice. Thomas

Hello, I would like to calculate an all atoms (including hydrogens) model of a metallo protein containing zinc. In particular, I would like to bind Zn2+ ion to ND1 atom of an histidine residues. I try to replace the residue "H" with "6" in the alignment (I referred to restyp.lib library found in modlib directory) but I obtain the following error in the log file. getpdf__392E> Your library requires all bins zero; nbinx: 5 can you help me? regards, Francesco -- Francesco Musiani -- Laboratory of Bioinorganic Chemistry Department of Agro-Environmental Science and Technology University of Bologna Viale Giuseppe Fanin, 40 I-40127 Bologna, Italy Phone: +39-051-2096236 - Fax: +39-051-2096203 E-mail: francesco.musiani(a)unibo.it

rigid.txt for PDBs with multiple subunits
by Robin Zhang 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, I'm trying to create a rigid.txt file for an antibody PDB file that contains multiple subunits (ie subunit A, subunit B, subunit C, and subunit D). However, the example in the ncmi_2008_files folder only contains a single subunit. Is there any way one can specify subunit as well as residue number in an rigid.txt file?

Chain designation in completing a structure.
by Steve Seibold 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hello modeller I am attempting to "complete" a structure by placing in a loop and doing loop refinement. The problem I am having is setting up the "alignment.ali" correctly.I think? The protein has two chains, A and B. I am using the "alignment.ali" file shown below: Chain C starts with "1", Chain D starts with "2", and ends with 1505. So, Chain D has 1504 residues. The "python script" used for running Modeller is shown below the alignment.ali file. >P1;2PPB_CD structureX:2PPB_CD: 1 :C:1504:D:undefined:undefined:-1.00:-1.00

ab initio modelling with X-ray data
by leuven 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear all: We have obtained a low resolution crystallography data for our protein, and we want to add it as restrain condition for ab initio modelling with MODELLER, just like the tutorial 5: Modelling with cyro-EM does, could it be done? And the data format of density map from crystallography is sca or mtz, while from EM it is mrc, how to fix it?

Dear All, While running the model-single.py, I am getting the following error--- No atoms were read form the specified input pdb file since the starting residue no and/ or chain ID in Model_Segment <or the alignment file header> was not found; requested starting position residue no "0" chain "A" My model file starts with residue no 4. Please help. Thanks J

distance restraints multi templates
by Armin Meier 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi, we want to use Modeller for modeling a target with multiple templates. The distance restraints shall be replaced by our own ones. So far, we're replacing all lines in the restraints file of types 3 (gaussian) and 10 (spline) in combination with groups 9 (CACA), 10 (NO), 23 (SDCH-MNCH), 26 (SDCH-SDCH). Is there any source of information about the Modeller handling of distance restraints for multiple templates, i.e. which distance restraints are there and what is their mathematical form? Thanks for hints
