[cmview-users] Problem running various pdb files+dssp error

Hi

I checked the pdb file and yes, it is missing the SEQRES, so I am going to add it and try again. Actually the header is very brief. Meanwhile, what else in the header could be crucial as an input to cmview? It would be good if we could skip many lines in the header and keep only crucial ones because there are many files to generate.

Thanks a million 
Maryam

Hi Maryam

I would say that this is a known problem with the program that
      doesn't cope well when the sequence numbering starts at a high
      number. If I understand from the output you show, your model is
      based on PDB code 2kun, isn't it? I've tried the original 2kun PDB
      file and it worked alright.

My guess is that in your case it doesn't work because there is no
      SEQRES records indicating what the exact sequence is for the PDB
      file. Do you have SEQRES records in your file? If not you can add
      them from the original PDB file and try it again. Another way to
      solve the issue is to renumber your residue serials in the ATOM
      lines to start at 1. 

Let us know if that helps. If not it would be useful to have a
      look at your PDB file to be able to track down exactly what went
      wrong with the program.

Cheers

Jose
