Thanks Tom.
I guess the file terminator line '--' was missing.
It seems to be working fine now.

A quick question: If I use the other simpler format, does its file extension need to be different or will .ali do?

Thanks,
Abhinav

Hi Abhinav,

This format is very unforgiving. It has to have exactly 5 lines:

## TARGET SP_3n91
# hhsearch
scores_from_program: 0 1.00
0  --DDDEVTMNSK....
0  GSDNEFPDFDYQ....
--

also note I changed SP 3n91 to SP_3n91. Your PDB file name must also start
with SP_3n91 in this case.  You need a pdb file name with at least 5 chars
before the ".pdb" and these 5 characters have to match the 5 characters
after TARGET on the first line.

Note that the other format read by mr_rosetta is a lot easier:

title text for sequence of target to follow
VDFNGYWKMLSNENFEEYLRALDVNVALRKIANLLKPDKEIVQDGDHMIIRTLSTFRNYIMDFQVGKEFEEDLTGIDD
title text for sequence of template (supplied PDB) to follow
-AFSGTWQVYAQENYEEFLRAISLPEEVIKLAKDVKPVTEIQQNGSDFTITSKTPGKTVTNSFTIGKEAEIT--TMDG


All the best,
Tom T

Somebody helped me out with the format. Thanks.
My alignment file looks like:
## SP 3n91


0  --DDDEVTMNSK....
0  GSDNEFPDFDYQ....



But phenix says

******************* ERROR ENDING ***************

Sorry, the alignment file ['xx.ali']
does not seem to have the correct format?
It can either start with '##' or with '> title of target seq here'

******************* ERROR ENDING ***************

I do have the file starting with '##'!

Thanks,
Abhinav

Hi,

I am looking for file format for alignment file (*.ali) used in
mr_rosetta.
The description on the Phenix web site is not clear.
Can someone please describe  the file format with an example?
