How to use MODELLER to build DIMER homology model with ligand?

Procedure:

    Get Fasta sequence from UNIPROT database.

    Predict sequence alignment from HHPRED

    Prepare INPUT files for MODELLER

###############
from modeller import *
from modeller.automodel import *
#from modeller import soap_protein_od
env = environ()
env.io.hetatm = True
a = automodel(env, alnfile='TvLDH-1bdm.ali',
              knowns='1bdm',
              sequence='TvLDH',
              assess_methods=(assess.DOPE,
                              #soap_protein_od.Scorer(),
                              assess.GA341))
a.md_level = refine.very_slow
a.starting_model = 1
a.ending_model = 1   #Number of output models
a.final_malign3d = True
a.make()

    In the alignment file dot ( . ) represents the ligand and slash ( / ) represents the chain break.

    Precautions to be taken:

Make sure ligand is at the end of each chain before TER in the template PDB (here 1bdm.pdb) and delete all other molecules (for example: Water)

    Execute modeller in the linux terminal

        follow the command

mod9.17 model-dimer.py

( OR  for higher version of modeller

mod9.18 model-dimer.py )

That's all. You are ready to analyze models. 🙂

How to keep chain ID / IDs in GROMACS?

By
In GROMACS , while converting pdb file (monomer or multimer) into .gro file, it do not preserve the chain ID information. Due to the lack of chain ID information, pdb file retrieved from .gro file at any stage of the simulation has missing chain IDs and pdb file can not be visualized properly in PYMOL / RASMOL . There are two ways to convert .gro file into .pdb Lets say your protein name is xyz.pdb 1] gmx editconf -f xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb 2] gmx trjconv -f  xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb -s xyz.tpr Only ' trjconv ' will retrieve the chain ID information for all the chains. and not ' editconf '. If you have monomer protein and wish to assign any chain ID then following command will be of your interest: gmx editconf -f xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb -label [ chain-ID ]

Python : Turtle tree

By
Turtle module can be used to draw some very nice patterns in Python. Following are some examples with code. ==================== import turtle import random t = turtle.Turtle( shape = "circle" ) t.lt( 90 ) lv = 14 l = 120 s = 30 t.color( 'indigo' ) t.width(lv) t.penup() t.bk(l) t.pendown() t.fd(l) def draw_tree ( l , level ): width = t.width() # save the current pen width t.width(width * 3.0 / 4.0 ) # narrow the pen width l = 3.0 / 4.0 * l #t.color(R,G,B) #provide the RGB numbers t.color(random.random(), random.random(), random.random()) t.lt(s) t.fd(l) if level < lv: draw_tree(l, level + 1 ) t.color(random.random(), random.random(), random.random()) t.bk(l) t.rt( 2 * s) t.fd(l) if level < lv: draw_tree(l, level + 1 ) t.color(random.random(), random.random(), random.random()) t.bk(l) t.lt(s) t.width(width) # restore the previous pen width t.speed( "fastest" ) draw_tree(l, 5 ) turtle.done() ===========

GNUPLOT: How to draw trend line?

By
How to draw trend line in the GNUPLOT? If you like to plot graphs in gnuplot and dont know how to plot trendline then here you are. Follow the steps mentioned below... 1. You should have a files with X and Y values 2. Open GNUPLOT (Operating system dosen't change anything here. It works on all systems) 3. Type the command in the gnuplot terminal Lets say I have a file for eg. '1.txt' p '1.txt' u 1:2 w d title '', '1.txt' u 1:2 smooth acsplines title '1.txt' OR p '1.txt' u 1:2 w d title '', '1.txt' u 1:2 smooth bezier title '1.txt' It will plot as below...
