RE: [modeller_usage] More Doubts - missing aminoacids in template
by Schweikardt, Thorsten 29 Jul '04

29 Jul '04

Hi Elton, please take a look at your template-pdb file, it does not begin with aminoacid 2, but with aminoacid 16; same problem for the ending aminoacid. You have to make sure your alignment and pdb-file contain the same aminoacids. If the xray structure analysis does not reveal all aminoacids, you have to correct the alignment before modelling. If you want to know which aa are missing, extract the sequence of the existing aminoacids in the pdb-file with Modeller or DeepView (File-save-Sequence) and compare it to the sequence you are using.

More Doubts.
by Elton Jose Rosas de Vasconcelos 28 Jul '04

Dear Mr. Schweikardt and others, I'm trying to model another protein (HSP) and I'm having trouble again. Please look the second line of my alignment file structureX:1uy7:2:A:236:A:::-1.00:-1.00 I have followed your previous instructions for the Prion protein and it doesn't seem to work out. Can you help me again? The files (.ali .log .top and) are compressed by tar -cvzf command. Best regards, Vasconcelos, EJR

Hello Elton, your alignment file states "structure" where it should be "structureX", change it and Modeller should read in the pdb file, as long as you have stored it in the path you gave Modeller in the "SET ATOM_FILES_DIRECTORY"-command. You should also give Modeller the starting/ending aminoacid number and chain number in the alignment file. The second line should be structureX:1uw3:125:A:230:A:::-1.00:-1.00 Another thing: as long as you do not want to model water or ions, just protein, you should delete all but the aminoacid atoms from the input pdb-file, as modeller will try to match the residues in the alignment file with the pdb-file and will stop if it encounters atoms that are not present in both. For alignment file parameters, have a look at http://salilab.org/modeller/manual/node72.html I hope that helps, best wishes, Thorsten Schweikardt Molecular Biophysics University of Mainz > -----Original Message----- > From: modeller_usage-bounces(a)salilab.org > [mailto:modeller_usage-bounces@salilab.org] On Behalf Of > Elton Jose Rosas de Vasconcelos > Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2004 11:43 PM > To: modeller_usage(a)salilab.org > Subject: [modeller_usage] Some Doubts > > Dear Doctors and Modeller users, > > We are graduate students in Fortaleza, Brazil and we are > trying to model > an aminoacid sequence deduced from genotyping data using the > MODELLER for > Linux (RedHat 9.0)!

Some Doubts
by Elton Jose Rosas de Vasconcelos 27 Jul '04

27 Jul '04

Dear Doctors and Modeller users, We are graduate students in Fortaleza, Brazil and we are trying to model an aminoacid sequence deduced from genotyping data using the MODELLER for Linux (RedHat 9.0)! Thus, we would like to know if you could help us on the script for modelling our target sequence, cause we are having some troubles with that. Our log output file stops after the CHECK_ALIGNMENT, in the BEGINNING OF COMMAND, telling us the template's structure had not been read. We put our atomic coordenates files (1uw3.atm and pdb1uw3.ent) into the /examples/atom_files/ subdirectory. Another error message appears when we put, in alignment file (pri.ali), "structure" and "sequence" in front of the template and target sequence respectively. This error message is "rdpir___648E> Alignment sequence not found in PDB file: 1 ../atom_files/pdb1uw3.ent" Please check our *.top *.ali and *.log files attached. We would appreciate very much if you could give us some light on solving this problem. Beforehand I thank you for your attention...

modeling mutations
by Miguel Relloso-Cereceda 26 Jul '04

26 Jul '04

Dear Modeler mailing list, I am a user of MODELLER 6v2 for Linux, and I am using this program to model the mutations that I am making on CD1b. I am looking for new interactions between amino acids that could be generated by these mutations and for possible changes generated in loops. This is the modeller that I am using: INCLUDE SET ATOM_FILES_DIRECTORY = '/home/moodyb/Miguel/37t/' SET OUTPUT_CONTROL = 1 1 1 1 1 #SET PDB_EXT = '.pdb' #SET MD_LEVEL = 'refine1' SET STARTING_MODEL = 1 SET ENDING_MODEL = 5 #SET DEVIATION = 4.0 SET KNOWNS = 'CD1b' #SET HETATM_IO = off #SET WATER_IO = off #SET HYDROGEN_IO = off #SET ALIGNMENT_FORMAT = 'PIR' SET SEQUENCE = 'CD1b-37t' SET ALNFILE = '37t.pir' CALL ROUTINE = 'model' Are these parameters the best way to get my objectives? I do not have much experience in computer science, and I went through your manual and I did not understand it at all. Please contact me with any advice and if it is not convenient, could you tell me who might be able to help me? Thank you very much.

Re: [modeller_usage] Restraints Problem
by akshay17 23 Jul '04

23 Jul '04

Dear Sir I tried rearranging parameters and Atom_ids which were written in wrong order in my .rsr file. This time, it says "segmentation fault (core dumped)". I recognize my problem somewhat similar to Mr. Daniele Bemporad's but as advised by you, i think in his .rsr file also, the parameters and Atom_ids are other way around. Anyway, i guess there might be some other problem apart from that. I am attaching my .rsr, .top & .log files. Is it possible that the User restraints i am giving might be unreasonable to be met during the model generation due to which it halts? I am not sure. Thanks for your help.

Array overflow error?
by Evans Adolfo Tapia 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

Hi, I'm using modeller lately, and I haven't had any problems while predicting the tertiary structure of a target using in the multiple alignment sequences with pdb files. Now that I'm trying to use, only CA files I receive this message and obviously Modeller stops the execution... > Array too small. Increase MPRMCNS > current maximum, current need: 1393200 1393224 Do you know if this is a parameter I can increase? or what can be causing the error. Let me explain a little, I'm obtaining these CA files using other methods to find the 3d structure of a given protein X. Then I get obtain all these files X1, X2, X3,... and make a multiple alignment using the same sequence of protein X as the target sequence and the sequences of each X1, X2, X3, that can differ from X in a few residues, as know structures. Then I'm trying to feed all these 3d models of the same protein and the alignment to modeller so I can obtain a refined 3D structure. But I get the above error, any help. Thanks, Evans

error STDEV < 0 (no lig in second template)
by Jacques Zylberg 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

I have read and understood the problem and the answer. I have a similar problem : in one template there is a ligand and in the second there is no ligand, and thus i think this error is generated... (the relevant ligand is an ATP and MG which are present in one template and absent in the other). I use gaps to compensate the missing ligands and I still get the error messages Dynamically allocated memory at amprmcns [B,kB,MB]: 16912855 16516.461 16.129 make_re_417_> Restraint type to be calculated: distance r_dista_644W> Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 r_dista_644W> Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 r_dista_644W> Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 ..... r_dista_644W> Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 r_dista_644W> Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 stdevs__397E> STDEV < 0: -0.2287 Set to 1E-5. recover____E> ERROR_STATUS >= STOP_ON_ERROR: 1 1 Dynamically allocated memory at finish [B,kB,MB]: 16912855 16516.461 16.129 Starting time : 2004/07/22 14:48:09.689 Closing time : 2004/07/22 14:48:45.264 Total CPU time [seconds] : 0.00 This error message is usually encountered when two residues in the target sequence are aligned with two or more template distances that are very different, so that the corresponding combined restraint cannot be reproduced accurately by a cubic spline. Almost invariably, this error occurs when there is an error in the alignment (ie, one template 'says' a particular target distance should be close to 10A and the other template says it should be 20A). But in your case, it seems something else may be wrong, because stdev is less than 0. Would you please modify file $MODINSTALL6v2/modlib/messages.lib from M 644 3 1 Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 To (add @S1 in the fourth line, and keep a blank line after the @S1): M 644 3 1 Two basis restraints have means too far apart: ICSR MEAN1 MEAN2 STDEV1 STDEV2 R.VIOL1 R.VIOL2 NEW_SD1 NEW_SD2 @S1 And email me the log file output. I know the message should be more informative and it should print what the violating distance is, and some day we will get there ;-) I hope this helps.
