Dear Amit,

I don’t think that PROCHECK is the right tool for assessing the quality of a 
comparative model.  It was revolutionary in its time, but the criteria it looks 
at can mostly be satisfied by energy minimisation even of an incorrect model, 
especially if you don’t have to simultaneously satisfy experimental data.  For 
evaluating refined experimental models, I would now be inclined to use 
Molprobity (available from a website, CCP4 and Phenix) or tools built into 
graphics programs like ISOLDE and coot.

Model quality assessment is actually a thriving subfield in the protein 
modeling community and it has its own category in the CASP modeling challenges. 
 You want to be looking at the methods that have been judged best by seeing how 
well they perform in blind predictions.  Comparative models differ from 
experimental models in that they haven’t been constrained by the requirement to 
fit experimental data, so quality assessment has to look at more subtle 
features like residue environment.

The most recent CASP was CASP13, so a good start would be the main model 
quality assessment evaluation in the special issue from that event: 
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/prot.25767. You’ll find a variety 
of good tools described there.  The one we’ve been playing with, in terms of 
local assessment of model quality for MR, is ProQ3D, which has an online 
server: http://proq3.bioinfo.se.

Best wishes,
Randy Read
