Re: [modeller_usage] Quick Question on Automodel



Thank you Ben.

Effectively. T should be 7 but it is being numbered as 4. Even with dashes indicating 6 gaps before the T.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. By offset I ment the output positions not following my alignment.

Yup. the "..." in the sequence is just the rest of the sequence (to make the message shorter) :)

Best

Dashes/gaps do not have any effect on which residues are read from the
PDB file; this is controlled entirely by the PIR header (the line
starting with "structureX", where you - apparently correctly - have 4 as
the start residue number). Dashes/gaps only control the correspondence
between target and template residues.

Your alignment looks fine to me, assuming by "..." you mean "the rest of
the sequence goes here". (A literal "." has a special meaning to
Modeller; read in the manual about modeling with ligands.)

Not sure what you mean here, unless you were expecting T to be numbered
4. Modeller numbers residues in your model starting from 1, regardless
of your alignment. If you want a different numbering, use
rename_segments(); see
