Hi Piyush,

If you look at the structures, you'll notice that there is one domain, starting from about residue 400 and ending at about residue 710 that is shifted in the different structures. The structures before and after that domain align well. Perhaps you have to create your alignment through other means?
Cheers, Rob

If you think you know what the alignment should look like at the 400th position, you can offset the dynamic programming matrix to force it. See http://salilab.org/modeller/9v8/manual/node294.html#SECTION00111525600000000... for an example.
