Basic structure calculation starting from given restraints

From CYANA Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This calculation shows how to calculate a structure from previously assigned upper limits and dihedral angle restraints. The input data are in the 'demo/basic' subdirectory of the CYANA software package:

demo.seq
amino acid sequence
demo.upl
upper distance limit restraints
demo.aco
dihedral angle restraints
CALC.cya
macro for the structure calculation

When CYANA is started, it automatically reads the standard amino acid library and the amino acid sequence of the protein (if multiple sequence files are in the current directory, the most recently modified one is read).

The actual structure calculation is performed by the commands in the macro file CALC.cya:

read upl demo.upl			# read upper distance bounds
read aco demo.aco			# read dihedral angle restraints

calc_all 50 steps=4000		        # calculate conformers

overview demo.ovw structures=10 pdb	# analyze and write best conformers
demo.pdb

The first two commands read the input files with upper distance bounds and dihedral angle restraints, respectively. Then, 50 conformers are calculated using the standard simulated annealing schedule with 4000 torsion angle dynamics steps per conformer. Finally, the 10 conformers with the lowest final target function values are analyzed. The coordinates of these 10 best conformers are written to the PDB file demo.pdb, and an overview table is saved in the file demo.ovw:
