Sir,
The rest of the target protein is in the form which I want (requires no modelling). So after modelling the residues 700-900, I want to join the modelled region back to the 1-699,901-1200. How can I do this? Could you please give any suggestion?

Sure, just include only the 700-900 sequence in your alignment for the
target (model) and align it with the relevant section of your template.

Whichever works best for you. You can include the whole template if you
like and just align it with gaps (-) in the target sequence in regions
where you don't want to use it in the model (i.e. residues 1-699,
901-1200). Or read only residues 700-900 from the template and align
just that with your model.

If the rest of the protein is disordered, there is little point in
modeling it.
