CCL: W:Rank structure models



 Sent to CCL by: "Len  Salgado" [leon_salga%a%yahoo.com]
 Dear *
 I've been doing protein-protein docking calculations, and let's call to the
 protein complexes obtained, the basic units. My final goal is to build a
 supramolecular structure with these basic units. The only restraint
 experimentally determined, defines de distance between the centre of 2 basic
 units.
 These supramolecular structures, could be produced by a docking procedure (and
 ranked accordingly), but since these structures have some thousands of residues,
 I've thought on obtaining them "manually", by mean of rigid
 rotation/translation operations on 3D space. I'm only interested on obtaining a
 crude view of the supramolecular protein structure, but nevertheless, want to
 charaterize and rank the set of supramolecular structures that I'm going to
 build.
 My question is.
 Is there a way to rank different structure models? Is there any
 software/methodology which reads a set of similar structures, and ranks them by
 energy, for example?
 Any insights will be valuable.
 Best wishes,
 Len Salgado
