I wonder if you approached this issue by molecular replacement using the
antigen-binding fragment (Fab) of any antibody (e.g. 1FVD). You can separate
the Fab into the two domains; Variable and Constant, delete the loops from
each, and use them as models in Molecular replacement.

Please let me know if you need more details using this approach

Subject: [ccp4bb] Rosetta vs Modeller

 

Hi everyone,
I am currently in the process of solving some antigen-antibody complex
structures. I was wondering if people here have used Modeller and Rosetta
for homology modeling and have any recommendations.I would like to build the
model of the antigen/antibody to the known structure of the antibody/antigen
( to get a model of the complex while my crystallization/structure solving
process continues).I have experience in Modller but I have not tried Rosetta
or the newer PyRosetta (which looks  interesting).
In the event of docking a protein to another are there any great programs
that people here have used/recommend?

 I would really appreciate your suggestions/insights.
