Re: [ccp4bb] homology modeling----good bond lengths, bad angles
Dear Anagha, just a guess... I'm not sure I understood you properly, but you are only trying to make a model of a solved protein which will lack 3-4 amino acids in a loop... therefore, why not using a modeling soft, such as Coot, remove the amino acids, and do one run of "Regularize Zone"?? You might need to renumber your chain once you have removed the amino acids, but it might work... just a guess... Best regards. Leo On Mar 1, 2007, at 4:11 AM, anagha gupta wrote: Hi CCP4 community!
