Databases link not found
Hi, I am trying to find the databases for running HHpred locally, however the databases link http://ftp.tuebingen.mpg.de/pub/protevo/toolkit/databases/hhsuite_dbs posted in Readme is not found. Pfam is available, where can I get access to use PDB, COG_KOG, NCBI, and SMART. Is it possible to do all the 5 databases at the same time? Thank you so much!
Seems like the new URL is http://ftp.tuebingen.mpg.de/pub/ebio/protevo/toolkit/databases/hhsuite_dbs/
Thank you so much! Do you happen to have the SMART database and can I use 5 databases at the same time when running locally?
I would recommend to do separate searches. I think there are some unresolved issues with searching multiple databases at the same time. This is (i think) the cause of the occasional AlphaFold homology search crash, but we don't have any grant funding for hh-suite support, so we never investigated this.
Thank you! I am using PDB database only and comparing the results from the HHpred website vs running it locally. This is my code for local hhpred: uni30_dir="/scratch/hhpred_dbs/UniRef30_2023_02/UniRef30_2023_02" pdb70_dir="/scratch/hhpred_dbs/pdb70_from_mmcif_2025-01-03/pdb70"
hhblits -cpu 8 -i "$file" -n 3 -cov 20 -e 1e-3 -qid 0 -maxmem 30 -o "$scratch_dir/temp/$r_name.hhr" -oa3m "$scratch_dir/temp/$r_name.a3m" -d "$uni30_dir"
hhsearch -cpu 8 -maxmem 30 -i "$scratch_dir/temp/$r_name.a3m" -o "$scratch_dir/hhpred_local_contxt/$r_name.hhr" -oa3m "$scratch_dir/hhpred_local_contxt/$r_name.a3m" -blasttab "$scratch_dir/hhpred_local_contxt/$r_name.txt" -d "$pdb70_dir" -p 20 -Z 10000 -z 1 -b 1 -B 10000 -ssm 2 -sc 1 -seq 1 -dbstrlen 10000 -norealign -maxres 32000 -contxt /home/groups/software/data/context_data.crf
And the result is: It's weird that the SS are all 0.0
The results from HHpred website seem to have better scores:
Do you know why and is there any way to improve the local one? Thank you so much!
