Heme out in space
by Joel Tyndall 16 Jun '14

16 Jun '14

Hey Ben, I've been generating some models of some cytochrome proteins with heme. I have generated ~6 structures that are all fine but the next two have the heme placed out in space relative to the protein. I have seen this before but have put it down to user error. Now I'm not so sure its me as I have been simply replicating the input files. Any suggestions? (I don't what to post files to bulletin board but can send direct (if needed)).

Reading density files
by chris.wood＠stfc.ac.uk 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

I'm trying to read a density file. The docs (http://salilab.org/modeller/manual/node414.html) suggest that this should work >>> m = modeller.density(modeller.environ(), "file.mrc", 10) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 2 arguments (4 given) Instead, I've tried: >>> m = modeller.density(modeller.environ()) >>> m.read("file.mrc",10) read_data> Reading electron density of the main map readlinef__W> File: file.mrc, Line: 1 Modeller will only read the first 400 characters of this line. readlinef__W> File: file.mrc, Line: 3 Modeller will only read the first 400 characters of this line. forrtl: severe (64): input conversion error, unit -5, file Internal Formatted Read Any suggestions what I'm doing wrong?

Modelling a circular permutated chimera
by James Starlight 30 May '14

30 May '14

Dear Modeller users! I'm looking for the brief tutorial with the description of how I could build model of chimeric protein consisted of A and B constructions fused both from N and C termi in circular manner with cross-section like ---N(A)----C(A) --N(B)--C(B)--N(A)-- assuming that N(A) is shared point in circle. I'll be thankful if you provide me with the example of alignment file for such chimera building based on 2 templates with known pdb structures. TFH, James

Loop refirement using simulated annealing
by James Starlight 27 May '14

27 May '14

Dear Modeller users! I need to refine some flexible regions (mainly long loop and linker regions) of my models using some enhanced sampling engines implemented in modeller like simulated annealing. In this FAQ salilab.org/modeller/6v2/FAQ.html I've found the same method. Could you suggest me some example of the realization of this method in the modeller python script indicating its differences from the method proposed in the advanced tutorial (listed below). class MyModel(automodel): def special_restraints(self, aln): rsr = self.restraints for ids in (('NH1:161:A', 'O1A:336:B'), ('NH2:161:A', 'O1B:336:B'), ('NE2:186:A', 'O2:336:B')): atoms = [self.atoms[i] for i in ids] rsr.add(forms.upper_bound(group=physical.upper_distance, feature=features.distance(*atoms), mean=3.5, stdev=0.1)) TFH, James

Hydrogen Atom Preservation
by Alexander Parella 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hello! I have been attempting to use Modeller to refine the loops of some generated protein structures. When performing loop refining, Modeller seems to remove all hydrogen atoms from the structure. I have not been able to find any way to change this behavior. Are there any such options? That is, to stop Modeller from removing the Hydrogen atoms from the structures it refines? Thanks for your time, and any help that anyone can provide.

Should you use multiple pdb files of the same sequence when available for multiple template homology modeling?
by meginir urestal 05 May '14

05 May '14

Hi, Among the proteins exhibiting homology to my sequence of interest is a protein that has been cristallized with three different ligands by the same team. I was wondering if, when faced with this kind of situation, including all three structures in the homology modeling would introduce a bias. Do you think I should pick one of the structures (based on compare.py) or include all of them in my multiple template modeling? meginir,

Generate PDB using diheral angles
by Harinder Singh 28 Apr '14

28 Apr '14

Currently i am using the tleap in amber tools to generate a PDB using only dihedral angles. Is it possible to generate a PDB/Model using only dihedral angles and the sequence, just like amber tools. I have read the whole manual, but didn't get anything useful. The only way you can restrain your model is using restrain file .rsr, which i really don't know how to generate from dihedral angles. -- Harinder Singh Senior Research Fellow Dr. G.P.S Raghava Group IMTECH, INDIA.

(no subject)
by Julian 23 Apr '14

Hello everybody, I would like to know how you model helices with a gap or insertion (pi or 310 helices). I noticed that if the gap / insertion is in the middle of the helix, Modeller arranges it quite nicely with the alpha restraint. But how can I solve this problem if the gap / insertion is at the very end of the helix? Thank you for your answers! Julian
