Issues with incorporating ligands in multichain protein
by Kyle- richard Dawson 17 Jun '24

17 Jun '24

Hi there, I am trying to model a multichain protein (homodimer) using 2 templates. I have two issues, Currently my .pir file looks like this >P1;seq1 sequence:seq1:1:A:1224:A:::: xxxx/ xxxx* >P1;template1.pdb structureX:template1.pdb:40:A:651:B:41:B:648:xxxx/xxxx* >P1;template2.pdb structureX:template2:3:B:291 :B::Thermus thermophilus HB8:1.45:xxxx/-------/ >P1;template2.pdb structureX:template2:3:B:291 :B::Thermus thermophilus HB8:1.45:-------/xxxx* Firstly, my template 1 I am using both chain A and chain B, they have slightly different missing residues in the template but thats fine.For template 2 I cant put them under the same header, modeller doesn't seem to understand that I want to use chain B of template 2 for both chain A and B of my target so I specified it separately - it seems to work fine though with this setup. Unfortunately when I try add HETATM information ".." at the end of my target and template 1 and 2 gaps "--" for template 2 modeller says the whole sequence is out of alignment suddenly. I have specific HETATM=true in my script so it reads that part fine. My alignment looks like this but does not work? Am I missing some obvious? >P1;seq1 sequence:seq1:1:A:1224:A:::: xxxx../ xxxx..* >P1;template1.pdb structureX:template1.pdb:40:A:651:B:41:B:648:xxxx../xxxx..* >P1;template2.pdb structureX:template2:3:B:291 :B::Thermus thermophilus HB8:1.45:xxxx--/---------/ >P1;template2.pdb structureX:template2:3:B:291 :B::Thermus thermophilus HB8:1.45:---------/xxxx--* RegardsKyle

Building multi-chain models
by alina.s123567＠gmail.com 06 Jun '24

06 Jun '24

Good day, I would like to build a GABA A receptor with (two alpha2 subunits chain A, D), (two beta2 subunits chain B, E) and (one gamma subunit chain C). I create an .ali file with template (6HUG) and with target sequences. I have received the error: 'There should be 10 fields separated by colons, : This line actually contains 15 fields.' I don't understand how I should correctly change it, if I have 5 chains. Could you please advise, how I should correctly write this 10 field line. I have already read the manual https://salilab.org/modeller/manual/node501.html#alignmentformat, but there is information about 2 chains. I still can not understand how correctly I should write it for 5 chains. The alignment for my template is look like: >P1;6HUG structureX:6HUG:FIRST:A 437:A 473:B 495:C 437:D 473:E:::3.5:-1.00 ------------------------------DYKDDD----DKQPSLQDEL---------K DNTTVFTRILDRLLDGYDNRL---------------RPG----LGERVTEVKTD-IFVTS FGPVSDHDMEYTIDVFFRQSWKDERLKFKGPMTVLRLNNLMASKIWTPDTFFHNGKKSVA HNMTMPNKLLRITEDGTLLYTMRLTV----RAECPMHLEDFPMDAHACPLKFGSYAYTRA EVVYEWTREPARSVVVAEDGSRLNQYDLLGQTVDSGIVQSSTGEYVVMTTHFHLKRKIGY FVIQTYLPC---------------IMTVILSQVSFWLNRE-SVPARTV-FGVTTVLTMTT LSISA----RNSLPKVAYATAMDWFIAVCYAFVFSALIEFATVNYFTKRGYAWDGKSVVP EKPKKVKDPLIKKNN---TY--------------APTA--------TSYT---------- -----------------------------PNLARGD------------------------ ---------------PGLATIAKSATIEPKEVK----------------------PETKP ---------PEPKKTFNSVSKIDRLSRIAFPLLFGIFNLVYWAT-----YLNREPQLKAP TPHQ----------/ -----MCSGLLEL-------------LLPIWLSWTLGTRGSEPRSV-----------NDP GNMSFVKETVDKLLKGYDIRL---------------RPD----FGGPPVCVGMN-IDIAS IDMVSEVNMDYTLTMYFQQYWRDKRLAYSGIPLNLTLDNRVADQLWVPDTYFLNDKKSFV HGVTVKNRMIRLHPDGTVLYGLRITT----TAACMMDLRRYPLDEQNCTLEIESYGYTTD DIEFYWRGGDKAV--TGVERIELPQFSIVEHRLVSRNVVFATGAYPRLSLSFRLKRNIGY FILQTYMPS---------------ILITILSWVSFWINYD-ASAARVA-LGITTVLTMTT INTHL----RETLPKIPYVKAIDMYLMGCFVFVFLALLEYAFVNYIFFGRGPQRQKKLAE KTAK-AKNDRSKSES--------------------------------------NRVDAHG NILLTSL--E-VHNE---------MNE--VSGGIGD------------------------ ---------------TRNSAISFDNSGI-QYRK-----QSMPREGHGRFLGDRSLPHKKT HLRRRSSQLKIKIPDLTDVNAIDRWSRIVFPFTFSLFNLVYWLY-----YVN-------- --------------/ MSSPNIWSTGSSVYSTPVFSQKMTVWILLLLSLYPGFTSQKSDDDYEDYASNKTWVLTPK VPEGDVTVILNNLLEGYDNKL---------------RPD----IGVKPTLIHTD-MYVNS IGPVNAINMEYTIDIFFAQTWYDRRLKFNSTIKVLRLNSNMVGKIWIPDTFFRNSKKADA HWITTPNRMLRIWNDGRVLYTLRLTI----DAECQLQLHNFPMDEHSCPLEFSSYGYPRE EIVYQWKRSSVEV--GDTRSWRLYQFSFVGLRNTTEVVKTTSGDYVVMSVYFDLSRRMGY FTIQTYIPC---------------TLIVVLSWVSFWINKD-AVPARTS-LGITTVLTMTT LSTIA----RKSLPKVSYVTAMDLFVSVCFIFVFSALVEYGTLHYFVSNRKPS------K DKDKKKKNPLLRMFS---FK--------------APTI--------D-I----------- -----------------------------------R------------------------ ---------------PRSATIQMNNATHLQERDEEYGYECLDGKDCASFFCCFEDCRTGA ---------WRHGRIHIRIAKMDSYARIFFPTAFCLFNLVYWVS-----YLYLGGSGGSG GSGKTETSQVAPA-/ ------------------------------DYKDDD----DKQPSLQDEL---------K DNTTVFTRILDRLLDGYDNRL---------------RPG----LGERVTEVKTD-IFVTS FGPVSDHDMEYTIDVFFRQSWKDERLKFKGPMTVLRLNNLMASKIWTPDTFFHNGKKSVA HNMTMPNKLLRITEDGTLLYTMRLTV----RAECPMHLEDFPMDAHACPLKFGSYAYTRA EVVYEWTREPARSVVVAEDGSRLNQYDLLGQTVDSGIVQSSTGEYVVMTTHFHLKRKIGY FVIQTYLPC---------------IMTVILSQVSFWLNRE-SVPARTV-FGVTTVLTMTT LSISA----RNSLPKVAYATAMDWFIAVCYAFVFSALIEFATVNYFTKRGYAWDGKSVVP EKPKKVKDPLIKKNN---TY--------------APTA--------TSYT---------- -----------------------------PNLARGD------------------------ ---------------PGLATIAKSATIEPKEVK----------------------PETKP ---------PEPKKTFNSVSKIDRLSRIAFPLLFGIFNLVYWAT-----YLNREPQLKAP TPHQ----------/ -----MCSGLLEL-------------LLPIWLSWTLGTRGSEPRSV-----------NDP GNMSFVKETVDKLLKGYDIRL---------------RPD----FGGPPVCVGMN-IDIAS IDMVSEVNMDYTLTMYFQQYWRDKRLAYSGIPLNLTLDNRVADQLWVPDTYFLNDKKSFV HGVTVKNRMIRLHPDGTVLYGLRITT----TAACMMDLRRYPLDEQNCTLEIESYGYTTD DIEFYWRGGDKAV--TGVERIELPQFSIVEHRLVSRNVVFATGAYPRLSLSFRLKRNIGY FILQTYMPS---------------ILITILSWVSFWINYD-ASAARVA-LGITTVLTMTT INTHL----RETLPKIPYVKAIDMYLMGCFVFVFLALLEYAFVNYIFFGRGPQRQKKLAE KTAK-AKNDRSKSES--------------------------------------NRVDAHG NILLTSL--E-VHNE---------MNE--VSGGIGD------------------------ ---------------TRNSAISFDNSGI-QYRK-----QSMPREGHGRFLGDRSLPHKKT HLRRRSSQLKIKIPDLTDVNAIDRWSRIVFPFTFSLFNLVYWLY-----YVN-------- --------------* Thank you for your help.

Missing Residues at the Start, As Well As in the Middle, of the Sequence of a Chain
by Siddhartha Barua 30 May '24

30 May '24

Dear Modeller Discussion Forum Members, I am trying to repair Chain B in the RCSB PDB 5BS8. 5BS8's structure is that of DNA gyrase (from Mycobacterium tuberculosis). I used the example scripts, for filling in missing residues with Modeller, which were given at the URL https://salilab.org/modeller/wiki/Missing_residues (in Modeller Wiki), as well as the "basic-example" tutorial at the main Modeller website, and a YouTube tutorial video for guidance. *Chain B contains 2 missing residues at the start of the sequence associated with the chain in the PDB file- S423 and N424. Thereafter, it contains the sequence "A(425)LVRRK(430)" (with atom records/coordinates) and then a stretch of 6 missing residues- "S(431)ATDIG(436)". *I used the first script given at the abovementioned URL to generate a sequence file extracted from the PDB. *I then used the following as my alignment file (using the NCBI RefSeq (NP_214519.2) for Mycobacterium tuberculosis gyrB (DNA Gyrase subunit B):* >P1;5bs8 structure:5bs8.pdb:FIRST:B:LAST:B:DNA Gyrase::: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ALVRRK------GLPGKLADCRSTDPRKSELYVVEGDSAGGSAKSGRDSMFQAILPLRGKIINVEKARIDRVLKNTEVQAIITALGTGIHDEFDIGKLRYHKIVLMADADVDGQHISTLLLTLLFRFMRPLIENGHVFLAQPPLYKLKWQRSDPEFAYSDRERDGLLEAGLKAGKKINKEDGIQRYKGLGEMDAKELWETTMDPSVRVLRQVTLDDAAAADELFSILMGEDVDARRSFITRNAKDVRFLDV* >P1;5bs8B_fill sequence::::::::: MAAQKKKAQDEYGAASITILEGLEAVRKRPGMYIGSTGERGLHHLIWEVVDNAVDEAMAGYATTVNVVLLEDGGVEVADDGRGIPVATHASGIPTVDVVMTQLHAGGKFDSDAYAISGGLHGVGVSVVNALSTRLEVEIKRDGYEWSQVYEKSEPLGLKQGAPTKKTGSTVRFWADPAVFETTEYDFETVARRLQEMAFLNKGLTINLTDERVTQDEVVDEVVSDVAEAPKSASERAAESTAPHKVKSRTFHYPGGLVDFVKHINRTKNAIHSSIVDFSGKGTGHEVEIAMQWNAGYSESVHTFANTINTHEGGTHEEGFRSALTSVVNKYAKDRKLLKDKDPNLTGDDIREGLAAVISVKVSEPQFEGQTKTKLGNTEVKSFVQKVCNEQLTHWFEANPTDAKVVVNKAVSSAQARIAARKARELVRRKSATDIGGLPGKLADCRSTDPRKSELYVVEGDSAGGSAKSGRDSMFQAILPLRGKIINVEKARIDRVLKNTEVQAIITALGTGIHDEFDIGKLRYHKIVLMADADVDGQHISTLLLTLLFRFMRPLIENGHVFLAQPPLYKLKWQRSDPEFAYSDRERDGLLEAGLKAGKKINKEDGIQRYKGLGEMDAKELWETTMDPSVRVLRQVTLDDAAAADELFSILMGEDVDARRSFITRNAKDVRFLDV* *I used the following as the script to run AutoModel to model only the selected residues:* from modeller import * from modeller.automodel import * # Load the AutoModel class log.verbose() env = Environ() # directories for input atom files env.io.atom_files_directory = ['.', '../atom_files'] class MyModel(AutoModel): def select_atoms(self): return Selection(self.residue_range('431:B', '436:B')) a = MyModel(env, alnfile = '5bs8_B-alignment.ali', knowns = '5bs8', sequence = '5bs8B_fill') a.starting_model= 1 a.ending_model = 1 *This then raised the following error:* return Selection(self.residue_range('431:B', '436:B')) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Modeller10.5\modlib\modeller\coordinates.py", line 385, in residue_range start = self.residues[start]._num ~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^ File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Modeller10.5\modlib\modeller\coordinates.py", line 302, in __getitem__ ret = modutil.handle_seq_indx(self, indx, self.mdl._indxres, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Modeller10.5\modlib\modeller\util\modutil.py", line 24, in handle_seq_indx int_indx = lookup_func(*args) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Modeller10.5\modlib\modeller\coordinates.py", line 379, in _indxres self._report_bad_index(indx, suffix, "residue", 0) File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Modeller10.5\modlib\modeller\coordinates.py", line 372, in _report_bad_index raise KeyError("No such %s: %s" % (indxtyp, indx)) *KeyError: 'No such residue: 431:B'* Next, I tried to run it again after deleting the 424 "-"s that preceded the sequence in the structure-associated sequence portion of the alignment file (>P1;5bs8 structure:5bs8.pdb:FIRST:B:LAST:B:DNA Gyrase:::) and replacing them with 2 "-"s for S423 and N424 and the again, without these 2 preceding "-"s.

coarse parallelization
by Jed Goldstone 16 May '24

16 May '24

I would like to use coarse-grained parallelization with automodel (through slurm) to create (say) 100 models. As Modeller is deterministic, even if I start a job array with different model numbers, each separate job creates the same models. So, for example, if I start job using 4 different python scrips with model ids 0-24, 25-49,50-74, and 75-99, I will get 4 sets of identical models. How can I turn off this deterministic behavior? With thanks, Jed . . Jed Goldstone, PhD Biology Department Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

It is trying to print the start of the Modeller log file, which has information on the Modeller version and environment. Position 957 is about where your computer name is. We assume that name is valid ASCII or UTF8 (and nobody's reported this error before!) but I suppose it doesn't have to be, particularly in non-Western locales. We'll fix this issue for the next Modeller release. In the meantime you could work around it in one of two ways: 1. Change your computer name in Control Panel to something containing only plain ASCII (e.g. try "XXX") and reboot. or 2. Edit logger.py in your Modeller installation, i.e. D:\conda\Library\modeller\modlib\modeller\util\logger.py and change line 8 from _header = _modeller.mod_header_get() to _header = ' ' Ben Webb, Modeller Caretaker -- modeller-care(a)salilab.org https://salilab.org/modeller/ Modeller mail list: https://salilab.org/mailman/listinfo/modeller_usage

Dear all, When I use conda to install modller 10.4 or 10.5, I used the python (3.9) to run a simple command (from modeller import *). Then I got the error (UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode...) . Could you tell me how to overcome it ? THX YT
