Hi, I couldn't find anything on this but was wondering if anyone else had come across asterisks in the pdb output file? Many thanks in advance, Victoria

Using an alignment object in automodel
by Will Dampier 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Hello all, I was wondering if there was a trick to using an alignment object produced by alingment.salign() in an automodel. My current method writes the alignment to a file and then re-reads it with automodel. This is extremely clunky but based on the docs it seems the only way to go. Current Example: env = environ() aln = alignment(env) mdl = model(env, file = '1OPN') #The pdb model I'm using for this example. aln.append_model(mdl, align_codes = '1OPN', atom_files = '1OPN') aln.append(file = 'hiv.fasta', align_codes = 'all', alignment_format = 'fasta') aln.salign(gap_function = True) aln.write('tempfile.ali') #write the file a = automodel(env, alnfile = 'tempfile.ali', sequence = 'hiv', knowns = '1OPN') #read it back in a.make() As I expand this using the parrellel toolbox it becomes difficult to manage filenames, etc. If there was a way to just pass in the alignment object to automodel then life would be much easier. Thanks for the help Will

how to treat an unaligned 46-amino acid long insertion
by Thomas Evangelidis 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Dear modellers, what's the best way to refine the structure of a 46 amino acid long insertion which is not aligned with any of the templates? As far as I know loop refinement can be applied to shorter parts of the protein. As a matter of fact I've already tested the slow mode but this part still looks disordered. I have also performed a PSI-BLAST search but haven't found any pdb structure which matches this part of my target sequence. thanks in advance. Tom

Regarding Best Selection of model decoy
by Ashish Runthala 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Respected Sir/Madam How do i consider the following analysis during the modeler run itself like assess.dope, assess.GA341 etc in model-mult.py etc. 1. Z score as Modeler doesn't reach below 1 in z scores. 2. RMSD to the template structure with just one template considered. 3. GDT-TS scores etc. I have some ideas which i believe Modeler should consider to increase the prediction accuracy. How i can check these out. Do let me know about considering these 3 results in the log file. And to modeler caretaker, i have something to share with you. How to go about that. Regards Ashish

What is the algorithm to combine multiple template information into a single model
by Ashish Runthala 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Respected Developers, If i make my own model from 2 or more templates, how exactly i should combine the coordinate information, two or more coordinate sets, 2 or more structures in conformational space into a single model. How exactly the algorithm considers this combination step. Please explain me the concept behind it. Thanks, Ashish Runthala

Hello sir, I have installed the MODELLER software for the comapritive sequence.I would like to known how it works for me.I have opened the command line prompt of modeller and i dont known what to do with it .so can you please tell me aabout that.

Symmetry and helix
by Heidi Tuominen 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

Dear modellers, I am novice in field of modeling. I am doing model of homodimeric protein. I have two parts and from both of them I have template structure. Between them there is linker which is based on homologous proteins and 2D prediction helix. I want to my model that helix and symmetric homodimer. 1) If I do first model with helix and then symmetric homodimeric model - I loose helix. 2) If I do first symmetric model and them restraint helix - I loose a bit symmetry. Is it possible to do these to restraints in one run? Or how I can handle this problem? My .py file (#? - marks for helix in previous run) # Homology modeling by the automodel class # # Demonstrates how to build multi-chain models, and symmetry restraints # from modeller import * from modeller.automodel import * # Load the automodel class log.verbose() # Override the 'special_restraints' and 'user_after_single_model' methods: class MyModel(automodel): def special_restraints(self, aln): # Constrain the A and B chains to be identical (but only restrain # the C-alpha atoms, to reduce the number of interatomic distances # that need to be calculated): s1 = selection(self.chains['A']).only_atom_types('CA') s2 = selection(self.chains['B']).only_atom_types('CA') self.restraints.symmetry.append(symmetry(s1, s2, 1.0)) def user_after_single_model(self): # Report on symmetry violations greater than 1A after building # each model: self.restraints.symmetry.report(1.0) #? rsr = self.restraints #? at = self.atoms # Add some restraints from a file: # rsr.append(file='my_rsrs1.rsr') # Residues 296-305 should be an alpha helix: #? rsr.add(secondary_structure.alpha(self.residue_range('296:A', '305:A'))) #? rsr.add(secondary_structure.alpha(self.residue_range('845:B', '854:B'))) env = environ() env.io.hetatm = True # directories for input atom files env.io.atom_files_directory = ['.', '../atom_files'] # Be sure to use 'MyModel' rather than 'automodel' here! a = MyModel(env, alnfile = 'cpC.ali' , # alignment filename knowns = ('cpCB', 'HXW'), # codes of the templates sequence = 'Pase', # code of the target inifile = 'CBPP.pdb') # use 'my' initial structure a.starting_model= 1 # index of the first model a.ending_model = 3 # index of the last model # (determines how many models to calculate) a.make() # do homology modeling Thank you already beforehand, hopefully this is easy case for you specialists.

"mutation modelling"
by Harsha Balaram 10 Feb '10

I would like to know the python scripts used to model mutant sequences of a known structure. Is the "model-default" script advisable for mutants with high structural variations?

question about modelling a small oligiopeptid.
by Knut J Bjuland 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Can modeller do modelling of a small oligio peptid. The peptid should be 4 amino acid long and i should start with Met-Glu and 3 and four could be any peptid. If modeller is not up to the task what software is best suite to desing ligand that are 4 amino acid resideus long.

To add "loop restraints" or ignore the template restraints in a specific region.
by Baptiste Legrand 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Hi all, It is possible to add helical or strand restraints but is it possible to add loop/coil restraints? For example in one part of my alignment, I have this type of structural alignment: StructureX: CCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHCCCC Sequence: CCHHHHHHHHHCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHCCCC Is there a command to add a coil/loop restraint or a trick to ignore the template restraints in the misalign part? Thanks. Best wishes, Baptiste
