Hello all,

I am recently became interested in modeling, and I am trying to model a recently discovered protein, that unfortunately appears not to have homologues at all. I tried to run the molecule domain by domain, try to use GenTHREADER, 3DPSSM and several others methods and metaservers to find homologues, but nothing gives an alignment with a reasonable accuracy or p-value. Could somebody recommend me what to do in this case to obtain a reasonable alignment / model?

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

Best regards,
