Hi Modellers, I am pretty new using MODELLER. I met some problem with the tutorials. http://www.salilab.org/modeller/7v7/tutorial/basic.html I am using MODELLER 8v2. Thanks a lot if someone could tell me what might be wrong. Here is the seq_search.top file: SET SEARCH_RANDOMIZATIONS = 100 SET FILE = 'TvLDH.ali' READ_SEQUENCE_DB SEQUENCE_SEARCH ALIGN_CODES = 'TvLDH', DATA_FILE = ON Here is the seq_search.log file: --------- Kind, OS, HostName, Kernel, Processor: 4, Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-22.ELsmp i686 Date and time of compilation : 02/28/2006 18:28:36 MODELLER executable type : i386-intel8 Job starting time (YY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS): 2006/03/21 11:52:24.775 SEQ_DATABASE_FILE : ${MODINSTALL8v2}/modlib//CHAINS_all.seq SEQ_DATABASE_FORMAT : PIR CHAINS_LIST : ${MODINSTALL8v2}/modlib//CHAINS_3.0_40_XN.cod CLEAN_SEQUENCES : T MINMAX_DB_SEQ_LEN : 0 999999 Number of sequences : 6869 Number of residues : 1543994 Length of longest sequence: 1491 sequenc_587E> Run alignment.append() or make alignment first. top_error__E> ERROR_STATUS >= STOP_ON_ERROR: 1 1 Dynamically allocated memory at finish [B,kB,MB]: 5317486 5192.857 5.071 Starting time : 2006/03/21 11:52:24.775 Closing time : 2006/03/21 12:35:30.209 Total CPU time [seconds] : 2585.59 ------------ --------------------------------- Yahoo!

But I was only able to do it without adding the restraints to the His residues and the Zn ion. But when I put the following subroutine at the end of my .top file, I get an error. SUBROUTINE ROUTINE = 'special_restraints' SET ATOM_IDS 'NE2:420' 'ZN2:1436' ADD_RESTRAINT RESTRAINT_PARAMETERS = 3 1 1 27 2 2 0 2.2 0.1 SET ATOM_IDS 'NE2:892' 'ZN2:1436' ADD_RESTRAINT RESTRAINT_PARAMETERS = 3 1 1 27 2 2 0 2.2 0.1 RETURN END_SUBROUTINE Following is the last portion of the log file with the error; TOP_________> 231 199 MAKE_RESTRAINTS make_re_417_> Restraint type to be calculated: distance make_re_422_> Number of previous, current restraints : 19104 19104 make_re_423_> Number of previous, current selected restraints: 18913 18913 TOP_________> 232 200 DELETE_ALIGNMENT TOP_________> 233 201 RETURN TOP_________> 234 165 CALL ROUTINE = 'special_restraints' TOP_________> 235 810 SET ATOM_IDS 'NE2:420' 'ZN2:1436' TOP_________> 236 811 ADD_RESTRAINT RESTRAINT_PARAMETERS = 3 1 1 27 2 2 0 2.2 0; .1 add_res_442E> One or more atoms absent from MODEL: NE2:420 ZN2:1436 top_error__E> ERROR_STATUS >= STOP_ON_ERROR: 1 1 The number of the residues I have used correspond to the modeller numbering system (*.ini file). I am not sure about the RESTRAINT_PARAMETERS I have put in the subroutines as I have duplicated it from one of the earlier posts. I tried to know more about them from the manual but could not understand. I shall be glad if you could also explain the meaning of various fields being used in the parameters. With regards, Anshul

Protein + Metal Ion

Dear Modeller users, I am trying to model the structure of a protein that contains Zn ion in the active site, using modeller 7v7.

build a homopentamer
by Giovanni Grazioso 17 Mar '06

17 Mar '06

Dear Modellers, I'd like to know if mod8v2 is able to build a homopentamer copying only the first chain from the heteropentameric template and then building the remaining 4 chains by axial symmetry. This is important because only one chain is highly conserved while the others are different. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you Giovanni

ordering of atoms in the PDB
by Robin Stamler 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

Hello I'm sure this is answered somewhere but I couldn't find it. The ordering of atoms in a residue in Modeller output as in (a) is different from that usually seen in PDB files (b) This is a problem when using the output in some other servers. Can the Modeller output be changed?

Perl Script to plot DOPE
by Vimalkumar Velayudhan 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

Hello Modeller users, I have written a perl script to plot the energy profiles obtained at the model evaluation step. This script is available at http://salilab.org/modeller/wiki/Plotdope The input for the program is the Alignment of the target and the template and the profile files. The script uses gnuplot to produce the output. Regards, -- Vimalkumar Velayudhan

Using a Modeller model as input to repeat the process
by Zoe Katsimitsoulia 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

Hello all, I am trying to model a protein which has many structures solved in a particular state, and only 1 structure solved in my desired state. I was wondering if it is possible to do the following: 1. Generate a model with Modeller based on the larger number of solved structures (yes, obviously) 2. Run modeller again, this time only with the 1 crystal structure available in my state as a template, but ALSO somehow incorporate my model from step 1 above, without using the model as a second template, because the states are too dissimilar I feel. The reason I do not want to generate a structure solely using the 1 crystal structure is because there is very low sequence identity (just under 30). So, effectively i'm assuming step 1 should give me an accurate enough model of my protein in state A, and i want to use this model plus the only one available structure to get it to state B. Does my theory make sense and is it possible? Any help is much appreciated.

hydrogen atom name
by Zhiqiang Ye 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Dear Sir, I have question about the hydrogen atom name after building the all-atom model. After building the all-atom model, the hydrogen name "HA" means hydrogen bonded to C-alpha, but GLY has two HA, one is 1HA, the other is 2HA. Which one is correponding to the sidechain in other residue types? I checked several GLY in my model, I find always it is 2HA that is corresponding to the side chain of other residue type. Is this the standard criteria, or just modeller's choice? Thank you very much! -- Zhiqiang Ye PHD candidate
