Errors in Interface design  
#1

Hello there, Now I'm trying to optimize the protein sequence at binding interface for increased affinity to its target. A complex structure was previously solved by X-ray crystallography (PDB 3rh8). To make their affinity higher, I would like to design the protein sequence at both sides. Meiler Lab provides a step-by-step tutorial at his website (http://www.meilerlab.org/index.php/rosetta-tutorials). According to his tutorial, I tried, but I found something like error.

I could not get any model. I appreciate if you could tell me how to solve this error. I attached all input files (pdb, resfile, options, xml files) and generated error (log file).  

Command line I typed

~/rosetta_src_2018.33.60351_bundle/main/source/bin/rosetta_scripts.macosclangrelease @design.options -parser:protocol design.xml -out:suffix _design -scorefile design.fasc > design.log

flags I used   design.options

-linmem_ig 10                        # limit memory to store rotamer pair interactions
-use_input_sc                        # Include rotamers from the input structure
-ex1
-nstruct 2                    # Generate 2 models
-s 3rh8_renum.pdb                # Use structure 3rh8 as input

Xml file  design.xml

    <TASKOPERATIONS>
        Include rotamer options from the command line

This is related to a bug in the Rosetta 3.10 release. Using a more recent release (like Rosetta 3.11 or a weekly on or after the 2018.42 one) should avoid this issue.

My apologies for late reply to you. 

Thanks to your advise, I successdully solved this problem by using the recent version of Rosetta3.12. 

Thank you very much !!

Just curious, which tutorial in the Meiler lab link you provided (http://www.meilerlab.org/index.php/rosetta-tutorials) did you get the .xml file from?

I'm sorry for late reply. I got this xml file from Rosetta Antibody Workshop 2019. 

By updating the Rosetta version, everything is going well right now.
