DeepMSA error from CR-I-TASSER

[ning]

Hi IT experts,

Recently, I tried to use CR-I-TASSER package for model building of Cryo-EM map, whereas, it reported a serious error that was described below:
Iteration 1
Prefiltering database
.
HMMs passed 1st prefilter (gapless profile-profile alignment) : 39
HMMs passed 2nd prefilter (gapped profile-profile alignment) : 39
HMMs passed 2nd prefilter and not found in previous iterations : 39
Scoring 39 HMMs using HMM-HMM Viterbi alignment
.

It seemed likely that hhblits can't find hms0_1330134275.hhm file. Please give me some suggestions. I don't know so much about perl programming language. Thanks in advance.

Sincerely

Hello Ning,

Could you send your query sequence to me (xizha@umich.edu) to have a test? You don't have to send the density map since this error happens in MSA step.

Best,
Xi

Hi Xi,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, MSA calculation caused this error. Actually, I just used the example sequence (GYYELYRRSTIGNSLVDALDTLISDGRIEASLAMRVLETFDKVVAETLKDNTQSKLTVKGNLDTYGFCDDVWTFIVKNCQVTVEDQSVISVDKLRIVACNS) to try to go through the tutorial quickly. Maybe the tmp file holder which is located at root directory "/" need an additional storage, I supposed. Any suggestion is welcome.

Sincerely,
Ning

What are the specific requirements for storage space in the temporary file holder when performing MSA calculations, and how can I check if the current space is sufficient?

MSA calculations require sufficient temporary storage space, often in /tmp or /. Use df -h to check available space. If limited, redirect temp files usingbasketball stars TMPDIR=/path/to/larger/storage. Clear unused files regularly or allocate more space to prevent errors. Refer to the MSA tool’s documentation for additional storage management tips.
