Chapter 11: Command Syntax<br />

The alignment file format is as follows. The first line corresponds to the query sequence (indicated<br />

by ProbeAA:) and the second line corresponds to the template sequence (indicated by<br />

Fold AA:). A period is used as a gap character, and an X is used for non-standard residues.<br />

Below is a sample alignment file.<br />

ProbeAA: .AAEEKTEFDVILKAAGANKVAVIKAVRGATGLGLKEAKDLVESA...PAALKEGVSKDDAEALKKALEEAG<br />

AEVEVK<br />

Fold AA: AAQEEKTEFDVVLKSFGQNKIQVIKVVREITGLGLKEAKDLVEKAGSPDAVIKSGVSKEEAEEIKKKLEEAG<br />

The sequences are split for formatting reasons, and should be on a single line in the actual file.<br />

11.3 fr—Fold Recognition<br />

fr finds template proteins that are similar to the query sequence at both sequence and structure<br />

levels.<br />

The fold recognition program used in <strong>Prime</strong> differs from standard sequence search program<br />

such as BLAST by taking into account secondary structure matching and profile-sequence<br />

matching. As a result, fr can find structural homologs with low sequence identity to the query<br />
