Hello, I am exploring ModBase to build a model for the REcQ2 of arabidopsis Thaliana(swiss prot acc: Q9FT73). ModBase found 2 structures matching this target and after downloading the coordinates file and also the showfile.chimerax file, I was able to visualize with chimera both structures with apparently a satisfactory relative orientation. Below I copy-paste the target coverage:
2v1xA (63-592) crystal structure of human recq-like dna helicase 1wudA (531-602) e. coli recq hrdc domain
I wanted to know if there is an optimization step in the ModBase pipeline to achieve this and if it is referenced somewhere....and if not, which modules-scripts are available?
Thanks for your attention, Maria Persico
