Chapter 11: Command Syntax<br />

Table 11.8. Keywords syntax for ska input file<br />

Keyword syntax Mode Description<br />

MODE mode all The SKA operating mode; allowed values are:<br />

*align*: structurally align two or more protein structures<br />

to on another. This is the default mode<br />

*scan*: given a query structure scan a database of protein<br />

structures and identify potential structural homologues<br />

*dbcreate*: create a database that can be search in<br />

scan mode from a list of PDB files<br />

QUERY_FILE filename<br />

[name]<br />

TEMPLATE filename<br />

[name]<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> 2.1 <strong>User</strong> <strong>Manual</strong><br />

*align*<br />

*scan*<br />

Required. The input query structure. In *align* mode,<br />

the structure against which other proteins are aligned. In<br />

*scan* mode, the structure used for scanning the database.<br />

The optional name (*align* mode only) sets the<br />

name of this structure to a value other than the filename<br />

(the default). The name is displayed in the output file<br />

(see Examples, below). name cannot contain the file separator<br />

character (‘/’ on UNIX).<br />

*align* Required. PDB structures that are to be aligned to the<br />

query structure, set by QUERY_FILE. The TEMPLATE<br />

keyword can appear multiple times in order to be able to<br />

carry out multiple structure alignments (aligning more<br />

than one template structure to the query structure). The<br />

optional name sets the name of this entry to a value other<br />

than the filename (the default). The name is displayed in<br />

the output file (see Examples, below). name cannot contain<br />

the file separator character (‘/’ on UNIX).<br />

DATABASE filename *scan* The absolute path to the database to scan with the query<br />

structure. The database can be generated in dbcreate<br />

mode. Default: database supplied with <strong>Prime</strong>.<br />

DBNAME filename *dbcreate* The name of the file in which to store the database create<br />

by ska. filename must be the file name without any path<br />

specification.<br />

FILELIST filename *dbcreate* A file containing a list of absolute filenames for structures<br />

(in PDB format) that are to be included in a database<br />

of templates that can be search with ska in scan<br />

mode. Absolute filenames are required to avoid having<br />

to copy large numbers of PDB files to the temporary<br />

directory in which the job is run.<br />

GAP_OPEN value *align*<br />

*scan*<br />

Gap initiation penalty.<br />

GAP_DEL value *align* Deletion penalty.
