Dear Mark,
Thanks for the advice and suggestions.
I have used trjconv command as in the justin tutorial (trjconv -s
md_0_1.tpr -f md_0_1.xtc -o md_0_1_noPBC.xtc -pbc mol -ur compact),
but when i loaded the md_0_1.gro followed by md_0_1_noPBC.xtc in VMD,
i could not see the protein jumping out of the box on one side. I am
doing something wrong, Please let me know, and was able to calculate
rmsd plot as per the command: g_rms -s md_0_1.tpr -f md_0_1_noPBC.xtc
-o rmsd.xvg -tu ns
If you don't see the protein jumping, then what's the problem? That's the point
of using trjconv - to correct periodicity.
and i want convert the coordinates of the simulated protein in pdb
format, and as I learnt that the coordinates are written in .trr or
.xtc file and i also have a md_0_1.gro file, so can i use editconf -f
md_0_1.gro -o md_0_1.pdb command to convert the coordinates of the
simulated protein into PDB format,is it ok..
or else should i use trjconv -f md_0_1.xtc -o md_0_1.pdb.Please
suggest me the correct script.
It depends on what you want. If you want to use the structure from the end of 1
ns, use editconf. Using trjconv to convert an .xtc file to a .pdb file will
generate a (potentially) very large .pdb trajectory with all of the frames you
saved. Probably not what you want. If there is an intermediate frame you want
to utilize, use trjconv -dump.
Regarding docking when I did solvent simulation on GUI commercial
software, I used to minimize the simulated structure for docking, but
i have no clues learnt in gromacs tutorial ( iam new to gromacs)
regarding the output whether it is minimized after simulation or not
....the md.mdp file which i used for the production MD is as below:
The structure is minimized after energy minimization, which only provides a
reasonable attempt at generating a starting structure. Once the dynamics begin,
the goal is to reach a equilibrium sampling of physiologically-relevant
configurations. The structure may or may not deviate substantially from the
minimized structure (you can gauge that to some extent by RMSD).
Probably the purpose of minimization before docking is simply to correct any
weird geometry that may be present in the receptor structure
