To download a model, open the pull-down menu and pick ''Coordinates''. | To download a model, open the pull-down menu and pick ''Coordinates''. | ||
===Generating New Models=== | |||
*At [http://uniprot.org UniProt.Org], find your sequence, and copy it in FASTA format. | |||
*Go to [http://swissmodel.expasy.org SwissModel.expasy.org]. | |||
*It is a good idea to create an account, and login. This makes it easy to find your models later, although they are not kept on the server more than a week. | |||
*Open the menu ''Modelling'' at the top, and select '''Automated Mode'''. | |||
*Paste your sequence into the box, give the project a title, and click ''Build Model''. Processing can take from a few minutes to a few hours. | |||
The results will have a table listing percentages of sequence identity, and templates used. Below will be molecular images for the models. Click on a molecular image to open more information. In the box that opens, click the symbol at right that looks like "'''v'''" to open more details. | |||
To download a model, click on the blue button ''Model 01'' (or 02, 03, etc.) and pick PDB File. | |||
