Re: [modeller_usage] [clustering] does MODELLER provide tools to cluster structures ?

Hi Min-yi Shen, and thanks for sharing your experience, As a matter of facts, I was considering the possibility to use such a scheme as the one you describe (RMSD + linkage ). I didn't realize there could be a symmetry problem with the RMSD distance, but I guess guiding this computation with the multiple alignment should leverage the issue. --Ben Le 24 oct. 2011 à 19:38, Min-yi Shen a écrit : > My own workaround long time ago (2005) was > (1) generate N models > (2) filter out some bad models with objective values > (3) compute all-against-all RMSDs as a N-by-N matrix (just write a > double loop in py) > (4) Do hierarchical agglomerative clustering in R. > > The problem with (4) is that 1. the distance measure from step 3 may > or may not obey the triangular inequality, and 2. it varies with > cluster linkage methods. > > so, I finally opted to use some graph-based clustering methods like > MCL http://micans.org/mcl.

problems with randomization
by Igor Dvortsov 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

i've noticed something strange: let's try build serie of models in model_default.py-way, but with starting_model=1 and ending_model=10. we get 10 different models a1..a10. let's do it one more time with same script and we get another 10 models b1..b10. they are different between themself but coincide with previous serie, such as a1=b1..a10=b10. i just don't understand it. each model is calculated by automodel.single_model(), inside it method self.randomize_initial_structure(atmsel) is called. so randomization takes place. how it can be that these randomizations led to coinciding results? and the main question - how to make modeller give really random serie of models? kind regards, Igor.

Yes, you are exactly correct. Modeller is not limited to using homologs as templates; it can use any protein that you believe is structurally similar to the protein you intend to model. But if you choose a template that is not similar, you will likely get a poor model.

induced fit modeling by Modeller or ModLoop
by Andrew Voronkov 21 Oct '11

21 Oct '11

Dear Modeller users, I need to model induced protein-ligand fit. Flexibility is supposed to be defined mostly by only one of the loops in the protein, so I probably don’t need to do a molecular dynamics, but can just make simulated annealing and conformational sampling for this loop. Is it possible to do it somehow in parallel with protein docking – for example with ligand present or by any other way to include ligand influence on loop position? But in general looks like the simplest way is to make loop sampling, perform docking and check final complexes by score/analyze manually. Best regards, Andrew

Modeling GPCRs
by Maggie Pruitt 18 Oct '11

18 Oct '11

Hello, I am interested in using Modeller for predicting the structure of the G protein-coupled receptor I study. This protein does not have any homologous proteins in the PDB database and there is no experimental data to help model the protein. Knowing this, can Modeller provide an accurate structure of my protein to use in molecular dynamics simulations? I understand that I can choose other crystallized GPCRs to use as templates, but I am concerned that since Modeller is a homology modeling program that the end model would simply look like my protein forced onto the template structure. If anyone can give me some further insight on this manner, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help! Sincerely, Maggie

Re: [modeller_usage] Modeller on SGE

On 10/18/11 6:02 AM, Matías wrote: > HI, I´m trying to run modeller in multiple cores on a Cluster with > SGE. Do you have an example script to do this? No, since it is highly dependent on your SGE setup. And it depends what you mean by "run modeller". There are two classes in Modeller for running on SGE systems: sge_qsub_job and sge_pe_job. The first uses 'qsub' from within the Modeller run to start an SGE job to do the computation (typically you run Modeller on your head node or some other machine which can 'qsub' to your cluster). The second is designed to be used in a Modeller job which is running on your cluster in a PE; it will allow Modeller to use all the nodes in that PE. A basic usage of the first for comparative modeling would be something like (see also examples/automodel/model-parallel.py): from modeller import * from modeller.automodel import * from modeller.parallel import * j = sge_qsub_job(maxslave=10) env = environ() a = automodel(env, alnfile=...) a.starting_model = 1 a.ending_model = 100 a.use_parallel_job(j) a.make() This will automatically 'qsub' an SGE array job containing 10 tasks when you call a.make(), so that the modeling is split between 10 processors.

Hi, I am modelling a sequence in which I am restraining some portions of the sequence to be helix as I have copied that sequence from a known structure.
