Hello Modeller Users
Charlotte, thank you for your reply. However, I have included the number of nucleic acid residues in the description line of the structure and sequence.
Actually, I have tried to model both the case of only nucleic acids, as well as the case of protein+nucleic acids.
(1) Modelling only nucleic acids - results in the following error: rdpdb___303E> No atoms were read from the specified input PDB file, since the starting residue number and/or chain id in MODEL_SEGMENT (or the alignment file header) was not found; requested starting position: FIRST: @
(2) Modelling protein+nucleic acid - results in the following error: csrrng__299E> Atom index is out of bounds: 7621 7620 nselat__596E> Atom index is out of range (iatm,natm): 7621 7620
I have a question: Will Modeller allow for modelling only nucleic acids (without protein), or does it need to have the nucleic acids modelled along with protein?
I am still unable to model nucleic acids (either by itself or with protein) using Modeller and would appreciate any suggestions on corrections/changes to make.
With thanks and regards Nisha

What I had to do was to modifiy the sequence headers in the alignment file. In the first description line for each sequence and template, the total number of residues needs to include the ligand residues. > > I am also trying to model a nucleic acid and have succeeded with a simpler (ATP) ligand just within the last few days. > > I will be working on including a tRNA in my model in the next few days/weeks and will share any useful info and tips. > > -Charlotte Habegger-Polomat > > > > > nisha@ncbs.res.in wrote: > >>Hello Modeller Caretaker >>I request your help with modelling nucleic acids using Modeller.
