Lab journal task 5

We used the structure of 1A6Z chain A as target. The templates were selected based on the structures assembled for task 4 and also the Blast alignment from task 2. Unfortunatels, we could not find a sequence with a higher sequence identity than 39%.

-selection of template structures

-creation of alignments: sdt and 2d

The RMSD and GDT score were calculated with TM scoring function of the [the http://zhanglab.ccmb.med.umich.edu/TM-score/ Zang lab]. The function was downloaded and executed with:

TMscore model.pdb 1a6z_a.pdb

We then extracted the RMSD and GDT_TS score from the output. The GDT score is given as value between 0 and 1.

We searched the Blast hits from task 2 to create sets with close and distant homology. We could not find a structure with a higher sequence identity than 39%.

- computation of MSA: how?
