Hi there I am building a structure from 12 high-resolution crystal structures of high (>75%) sequence homology. When I run model-multiple.py I get the following error: ******************* >mod9v1 model- multiple.py 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback Traceback (most recent call last): File "model-multiple.py", line 35, in ? a.make() # do the actual homology modeling File "C:\Program Files\Modeller9v1\modlib\modeller\automodel\automodel.py", li ne 108, in make self.homcsr(exit_stage) File "C:\Program Files\Modeller9v1\modlib\modeller\automodel\automodel.py", li ne 403, in homcsr aln = self.read_alignment() File "C:\Program Files\Modeller9v1\modlib\modeller\automodel\automodel.py", li ne 397, in read_alignment aln.append(file=self.alnfile, align_codes=self.knowns+[self.sequence]) File "C:\Program Files\Modeller9v1\modlib\modeller\alignment.py", line 76, in append io=io.modpt, libs=self.env.libs.modpt, File "C:\Program Files\Modeller9v1\modlib\modeller\io_data.py", line 35, in __ get_modpt self.atom_files_directory) TypeError: in method 'set_io_data', argument 5 of type 'char const *' ********************************* Any help would be appreciated!

a question about add hidrogen

Hi there, I have this py file to include disulfide bonds: from modeller import * from modeller.automodel import * class mymodel(automodel): def special_patches(self, aln): self.patch(residue_type='DISU', residues=(self.residues['85:B'],self.residues['111:B'])) log.verbose() env = environ() a = mymodel(env, alnfile = 'multiple.ali', knowns = ('1', '2'), sequence = '3', assess_methods=(assess.DOPE, assess.GA341)) a.starting_model= 1 a.ending_model = 10 a.make() # Get a list of all successfully built models from a.outputs ok_models = filter(lambda x: x['failure'] is None, a.outputs) # Rank the models by DOPE score key = 'DOPE score' ok_models.sort(lambda a,b: cmp(a[key], b[key])) # Get top model m = ok_models[0] print "Top model: %s (DOPE score %.3f)" % (m['name'], m[key]) I want to include hidrogens to the protein and a substrate that's on one of the templates to make a simulated annealing. And by the way, modeller does not make simmulated annealing wrigth? -- Atila Iamarino L.E.M.B. - Laboratory of Molecular Evolution and Bioinformatics Av.

Model with ligand from template
by hori koshii 31 May '07

31 May '07

Hello all, I have some doubt on modelling with ligand and need your help. I have go over the tutorial on ligand but still I am not able to create my own. I would like to include the ligand from the template pdb for the the models. In my case, the substrate is cellotetraose (4 glucose units). Should one or four dots (....) to be added at the end of the alignment? My other question in how do you build the alignment file (ali)? Do you simply add the dots to the alignment file or is there any tricks? (I am wondering do we need to modify the PDB file to include the BLK or HETATOM, and then create the ali?) When I tried to simply add the dots to the ali file and ran the script to build the model, I got error with the structures not being recognized and it complained about the sequence length. Please kindly give us some advice or share with me your own precious experience if you've already done the same thing. Thank you so much! Sincerely yours, Jas --------------------------------- Get the Yahoo! toolbar and be alerted to new email wherever you're surfing.

difficult modelling example
by James Fethiere 31 May '07

31 May '07

Hi, I'm trying to reproduce the example for difficult modelling using the genThreader for alignment. This part works fine, and I get a model with ~28% id. Now, how do I get the alignment file from genthreader ready for modeller. There is a nice example but it does not say how one gets from html to the .ali file. Thank you James

to build a structure from CA coordinate
by Lixia Jin 31 May '07

31 May '07

I ave a pdb file with only CA coodinate. In order to get a complete strutur I used MDELLER to builld a model. However, the CA atomes were shifted a bit in the model. How can I fix those CA atoms when I build a model? thanks!

I have two chains in my model: A chain has 324 residues. I want to modify only part of chain A (193-249) and chain B. How do I select the residues? Thanks!

define residues
by Lixia Jin 30 May '07

30 May '07

When I use: self.patch(residue_type='DISU', residues=(self.residues['199'], self.residues['205'])) it works. When I use: self.patch(residue_type='DISU', residues=(self.residues ['199:G'], self.residues ['205:G'])) it gives me error information: KeyError: 'No such residue: 199:G' What might be wrong?
