We performed a HHpred as well as a COMA search, to generate three distinct datasets. Since COMA did not find any homologue structures with a similarity above 41% (see <xr id="tab:datasetCOMA"/>), we used the dataset created with the HHpred search and the script described in the journal. Hereby we found one structure with a similarity above 80%, one with a similarity between 40 and 80% and 15 with sequence similarity below 30%, of which 14 had a similarity of under 20% (see <xr id="tab:datasetHHpred" />). All HHpred matches had an E-value below 1e-15, for the COMA homologues we tried a less strict threshold of 0.002.
In most of the cases we used the structures 3hg3, 1ktb and 3cc1 for modelling, because either they are the only representatives in their class, or in the case od 3cc1, the sequence identity did not seem too low. For the Model MULTI 3 we also used the structures 3a24 and 3zss. The latter of those has an E-value of 0.00062. We added this structure to examine how a template with an E-value that is worse than the value of all our other structures, but still would fullfill the restrictions of an usual BLAST search (threshold of 0.003), would perform.
In this case it is important to mention, that although the identity of 3hg3 is 100%, it is not the pdb structure annotated for the AGAL protein, but the structure of the substrate bound catalytic mechanism, hence the high similarity.
1ktb is the X-ray structure for the already mentioned α-N-acetylgalactosiminidase in chicken, which in future might be used for enzyme replacement therapy in the treatment of Fabry Disease.
The last one of the frequently used structures, 3cc1, is the x-ray structure of a putative α-N-acetylgalactosiminidase in in Bacillus Halodurans.

Target comparison

<figtable id="tab:compare"> Comparison of apo and complex structure

Superimposed structures of 1R46 (blue) and 1R47 (green) in cartoon representation. Obviously, the structures do not differ much.

Comparison of the residues invoked in the binding of α-galactose in the apo structure (blue) and the complex structure (green)

Residues involved in the binding of α-galactose in 1R47 source

</figure>

As an initial step of the evaluation, we compared the apo structure 1R46 and the complex structure (with bound α-galactose) 1R47. Since the alignment of both the chains A of 1R46 and 1R47 in Pymol (see <xr id="tab:compare"/>) revealed a RMSD value of 0.248 and the comparison of the position and direction of the residues involved in the binding of the sugar (see <xr id="fig:GAL:1R47"/>) do not differ significantly, we used only the 1R46 structure for vizualisation, but computed all values and statistics for both structures.
In the right figure in <xr id="tab:compare"/>, the residues Asp92A, Asp93A, LYS168A, ARG227A and ASP231A are depicted in sticks representation (thicker); they are responsible for the binding of the sugar in the complex structures, which is shown in magenta. Clearly, one can see not much difference in this region between 1R46 and 1R47.

Modeller

Calculation of models

With this tool, we created 10 models (see Journal). The first three were produced with the standard settings and workflow of Modeller. The subsequent four models were computed from multiple target files in different combinations and in the last three models we rearranged the alignment files in order to test the quality of the alignment and the influence of the two types of alignment.

Methods:
alignment.malign() -- align two or more sequences
alignment.align2d() -- align sequences with structures; The alignment.align2d() command is preferred for aligning a sequence with structure(s) in comparative modeling because it tends to place gaps in a better structural context
