Hi:
I am trying to create a hmm database from individual hmm profiles downloaded from pfam db. I ran cat command on all the .hmm files and created a flat file of hmm database. when I ran hmmpress on this flat file I am getting the following error:
Error: bad file format in HMM file myhmm
Can anyone help me to solve this problem.
Thank you
GSC
Perhaps you have a mismatch between your versions of hmmpress and the models? I just ran through the same steps with a set of HMMs using hmmpress version 3.1b1 (the latest) and it worked just fine.
