The large gap on sequence is a big problem
by ��¨Ե��ط�� Ե��͹�� 07 Dec '05

07 Dec '05

Dear Modeller users I have a big problem in my sequence which has a long gap when i make a multiple alignment so how modeller solve this problem. Is it built this model from this gap? or we should cut this gap(but i don't want to cut this sequence because this sequence is important for looking the catalytic mechanism. Can any one help me please contact me?. Thank you Mr. Jitrayut Jitonnom CSML (Computer Simulation and Modeling Laboratory) Chiang Mai University Thailand. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.chaiyo.com ไชโยเมล์ - ฟรีอีเมล์รูปแบบใหม่ สดใสกว่าเดิม...

General Homolgy question
by Yogesh Sabnis 07 Dec '05

07 Dec '05

Hello, I have a general question on Comparative Protein Modeling. Is the modeling of only the active site residues, having a seq. identity of 80% with another sequence of a 3D structure, better than modeling the entire protein (seq. identity ~ 50%)? What are the disadvantages of modeling only certain seqments of a protein, active site mainly? When is this desirable rather than modeling the entire protein? Thank you. Kind regards, Yogesh Yogesh Sabnis Ph.D Dept. Medicinal Chemistry Uppsala University BMC, Box 574 Uppsala, SE-753 31 Sweden Phone: 0046 (0)18 4715012 Fax: 0046 (0)18 4714474

Thanks for your answer...I have been generating 20 models for my protein of interest, and after evaluating the variability within the family of models, I select one or more models to work with. This reminds me that I have only an "approximation" of my structure, and also allows me to retain some variability. I then work with these models as one would work with a family of NMR structures. Does anyone else use more than one model to work with after generating a family with Modeller?

How to choose the best model?
by carromeu＠usp.br 02 Dec '05

02 Dec '05

Dear Modeller users, I'm generating diverses models to my protein (400 - is this to great?). However I don't know how is the best parameter to look when choosing the best model. Objective function from Modeller, ProCheck parameters, Energy parameters... What parameters you use and why? If using Ramachandran plot as a discriminative parameter, how great must be the parameters calculated (for example: >90% in favored regions, <1% in disalowed regions)? Any help is welcome. Thanks for advice, Cassiano Carromeu.

Occupancy problem ?
by Nicolas 02 Dec '05

02 Dec '05

Hello everybody, I am trying to use several templates for homology modelleing but some present half-occupancy for some residus of my structures. As soon as I try to modelise my sequence, I get the "structure not read in" message. Is this linked to the occupancy ? I did try the same scripts with a structure which does not present any occupancy uncertainty and it works fine.

How many models to generate?
by Charlotte Habegger-Polomat 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Dear Modeller users, I was wondering if others would share how many structures you usually generate for a family of models. I am currently working on modelling my protein of interest with 3 known template structures (>30% sequence similarity). When using Modeller, I generate a family of 20 models and then evaluate the variability and quality of models within the family. How many do other Modeller users generate? How do you decide on this number? I've read articles where 3 models, others where 30 models were generated with Modeller... Thanks! -Charlotte Habegger-Polomat
