Nuclear Pore Complex

These scripts demonstrate the use of IMP in the modeling of the yeast NPC complex using diverse types of data as described in Seung Joong Kim, et al.'s 2018 NPC article published in Nature.

The scripts work with the IMP (version 2.6). A default build of IMP compiled with the IMP::npc module should work, but for most effective sampling, it should be built with MPI so that replica exchange can be used.

Compiling IMP with NPC-specific module:

• Clone IMP version 2.6
• Clone the parent repository (npc) into imp/modules/npc/.
• Compile IMP

Running the IMP scripts for the NPC complex:

1. Inner-ring components (Nup157, Nup170, Nup188, Nup192, Nic96, Nup53, Nup59, Ndc1, Pom34, and Pom152 NTD)

• Initial: template/inner_ring/job_IR501-510.sh (running script for template/inner_ring/modeling_inner_ring_initial.py), generates "3IR_502_0.rmf3" (an initial model)
• Refinement : template/inner_ring/job_IR860-869_refinement.sh (running script for template/inner_ring/modeling_inner_ring_refinement.py, which reads "3IR_502_0.rmf3 for the starting coordinate), generates "IR_865_0_final.rmf3" (a refined model).

2. Outer-ring components (Nup82 and Nup84 complexes)

• Initial :

• Refinement :

• cd template

• python XX.py & > XX.out (on a single processor; prepend mpirun -np 6 or similar if you built IMP with MPI support)

or job_test4.sh
