Given a set of alternative models for a specific protein sequence, the model quality assessment (MQA) problem asks for an assignment of scores to each model in the set. A good MQA program assigns these scores such that they correlate well with real quality of the models, ideally scoring best that model which is closest to the true structure. In this paper, we present a new approach for addressing the MQA problem. It is based on distance constraints extracted from alignments to templates of known structure, and is implemented in the Undertaker program for protein structure prediction. One novel feature is that we extract non-contact constraints as well as contact constraints. We describe how the distance constraint extraction is done and we show how they can be used to address the MQA problem. We have compared our method on CASP7 targets and the results show that our method is at least comparable with the best MQA methods that were assessed at CASP7. We also propose a new evaluation measure, Kendall's τ, that is more interpretable than conventional measures used for evaluating MQA methods (Pearson's r and Spearman's ρ). We show clear examples where Kendall's τ agrees much more with our intuition of a correct MQA and we therefore propose that Kendall's τ be used for future CASP MQA assessments.
