Reply To: Protein design – PyRosetta Script problem

[Anonymous]

The packer is designed to converge on the best solution when possible. This probably means the script poses an easy design problem, and so it can find the correct solution frequently.

Does it also place identical rotamers of those residues?

You can always turn the packing intensity up to make the search space larger, this may give more diversity in the results. You can do this by modifying the resfile; check the resfile documentation in the manual. (I have no idea how the sample resfile even works – it’s a Rosetta2 resfile, not a Rosetta3 resfile.

It’s also possible to turn the packer temperature up so that it converges less.
