Modeller should have no problem modeling a multiple-chain system. Simply
put the sequences of both chains in your alignment file, and use a chain
break character ('/') to separate them. So your template sequence would
look something like:
>P1;5fd1
structureX:5fd1:1:A:26:B::::
ADQLTEEQIAEFKEAFSLFDKDGDGTITTKELGTVMRSLGQNPTEAELQDMINEVDADGNGTIDFPEFLTMMARKMKDTD
SEEEIREAFRVFDKDGNGFISAAELRHVMTNLGEKLTDEEVDEMIREADIDGDGQVNYEEFVTMMTSK/
KRRWKKNFIAVSAANRFKKISSSGAL*
Obviously you would change '5fd1' to the actual PDB code of your
template structure, and change the starting/ending residue IDs from 1:A
and 26:B if necessary.
