Subject: rationale for assigining the coordinates with a break ( | )

Sir,

{Sub : To know how or what considerations are followed to model a protein with breaks}

It is a common occurance to get breaks in reference proteins "|" whis is due to non availability of a certain number of coordinates in the reference protein.

In the assigining of coordinate manually this reference is not acceptable many a times.

But it works many a times with modeller (I've used Modeller from insight II (Accelrys) at bioCampus - a subsidary of gvkBio Sciences - Hyderabad India).

What is the rationale for assigining the coordinates with a break ( | ) in reference protein in modeller.

 
Also how exactly is the minimization or dymanics done (If at all) in modeller. What are the considerations for such an approach ?

Regarding model with a loop : In Modeller :

Consider the following example :

                    PDF Violations     Energy

Model 1 :       6693.9                392.083

Model 2 :         960.0                749.346

which model is prefferable to the other and the rationale.

thanking you,
