This input slot can accept sequences >1,000 amino acids, even though it is only one line. | This input slot can accept sequences >1,000 amino acids, even though it is only one line. Sequence lengths of ~1,000 amino acids, or longer, may cause the Colab to fail, but can be predicted by submitting in two halves.<ref name="halves">I had one sequence of length ~1,300. After it failed, I submitted it as two halves with a substantial overlap (~350 residues). The middle ~200 of the overlap superposed very closely. I trimmed off the ends that superposed poorly, and superposed the two halves via the mid-overlap. By inspection, I chose pair of alpha carbons near the middle where the alpha carbon positions were nearly identical. I trimmed each half to this position, and "ligated" the two halves by combining the superposed half PDB files with a text editor. For further details, contact [[User:Eric_Martz]].</ref> | ||
