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

ligand residues.
