[gmx-users] problem with angle restraints

2010-07-09 Thread subarna thakur
I trying to use angle restrain for an ligand molecule. I have included the 
following information in my .itp file of the ligand  -

[ angle_restraints ]
;  aiajak functc0c1c2c3
6 1 7 1  106.9510001
6 1 8 1  108.8310001
7 1 8 1  104.9610001
5 2 7 1  110.6610001
5 2 8 1  104.9810001
When I am running the grompp command , I am getting an error-
Incorrect number of parameters - found 2, expected 3 or 6 for Angle Rest..
--
I have gone through the manual it says that for angle restrains we have to 
provide the theta(degree);fc; multi.I have given all the relevant information 
but still there is error. Please tell me where I have gone wrong.

In the absence of your .mdp file and a more detailed description of your system, 
extent of equilibration, etc it's hard to make any judgment.  Wide fluctuations 
are not uncommon in relatively small systems:

For energy minimization, the effects of plain cutoffs may or may not be 
significant.  Using plain cutoffs for actual simulation is a bad idea.  The 
artifacts are well-documented and for modern simulations any good reviewer 
should raise an immediate concern if plain cutoffs were used and not thoroughly 
justified.  A method like PME is significantly more accurate, but you can also 
achieve reasonable results using switch, shift, etc.  Read about the relevant 
mechanics of the force field you're using for what might be appropriate.


Without the mentioned lines I am getting reasonabel results (potential 
energy, kinetic, ,, also T coupling works perfectly). If I had better to 
unclude them what is the best value for fourierspacing?




I don't think there's ever been any sort of systematic study on the effects of 
Fourier grid spacing.  The trade-off is between speed and accuracy.  Larger 
values speed up calculations, but make PME less accurate.  Smaller values have 
the opposite effect.  You could do a small test for yourself (0.12, 0.16, 
0.18...) to see if there are any adverse effects.

Re: [gmx-users] Installing gromacs from git

Hi,

I had used the following steps to install a git version of gromacs.  It
installed correctly and I have been using it for a while. However, even
though I didnt install the parallel version, when I use mdrun it runs in
parallel. Is installation in the parallel mode by default? Is there a way to
use it without parallelization?

There aren't charges in a .pdb file, unless you've somehow added
them into one of the fields yourself.  The file you need to
check is your topology.  A running value of the net charges is
given in the [atoms] directive.  Charges are assigned by pdb2gmx
based on what is expected in the .rtp file and what you chose to
assign in terms of protonation state.


either 0 or integer net charges. The number 0.994 seems
like a rounding off error especially since the output of
genbox says that the system has zero net charge. Again, I
encounter this no-zero net charge


genbox reads coordinate files, so I don't know how any charge it
prints is meaningful.  It tells me there is a zero charge on a
lysozyme system that I know has a +8 charge (regardless of
whether or not I pass it a topology as well), so don't believe
genbox.  Believe grompp.  The magnitude is indeed due to small
rounding errors.  It should be interpreted as -1.

However, when I

   I dont understand. Do I need to run the genion step
anyway or is
   it okay to continue with this system?


   I'd believe grompp before genbox. Surely you know already
what is in
   your system, and thus its total charge. You should
already know the
   protonation state of all of your relevant protein
residues, because
   you made choices for them with pdb2gmx.

No ions to add and no potential to calculate.

Re: [gmx-users] fast rerun in order to get an energy

2010-07-09 Thread Jeffery Perkins
I'm no expert but try a rerun, it will allow you to get at least the potential 
energies for each frame in your trr or xtc file, I've never been interested in 
kinetic for my reruns and as such am unsure how that would work though it 
should be possible.  For this you'll need to build a slightly different mdp 
file with at least the following options (other stuff should be the same as in 
your initial run of this system)

nsteps = 0
nxtenergy = 1

I usually turn the trr or xtc that I need to rerun into a gro file for input 
using
trjconv -f traj.trr -o out.gro -ndec 3

You then need to grompp this new mdp file something like:
grompp -f rerun.mpd -p topol.top -c out.gro

and run an mdrun with the -rerun option turned on.

mdrun -rerun traj.trr

this should give you the energies at each frame in the normal ener.edr file 
used by g_energy

May have missed something but this should be a good place to start looking, 
best of luck,

Jeffery Perkins

You can pass your trajectory file to mdrun -rerun and it will recalculate the

I'd believe grompp before genbox. Surely you know already what is in 
your system, and thus its total charge. You should already know the 
protonation state of all of your relevant protein residues, because you 
made choices for them with pdb2gmx.

[gmx-users] Ewald setting for hydrocarbon system?

2010-07-09 Thread jojo J
Dear all,

I need your favor. I have a hydrocarbon system with no charged particles.
Today In one of the GROMACS tutorials I saw the following setting in em.mdp
file:
fourierspacing  =  0.12
;fourier_nx  =   0
;fourier_ny  =   0
;fourier_nz  =   0
;pme_order  =   4
;ewald_rtol =  1e-5
;optimize_fft  =  yes

has been used for PME . Sofar I did not even include coulombtype=PME in my
em.mdp file. What I had was:
constraints =  all-bonds
integrator  =  steep
dt  =  0.002; ps !
nsteps  =  200
nstlist =  10
ns_type =  grid
rlist   =  1.0
rcoulomb=  1.0
rvdw=  1.0
;
;   Energy minimizing stuff
;
emtol   =  1000.0

Can you please guide me whether it is necessary to include these lines in em
file for system having only partial charges like hydrocarbon (alkane). Also,
in md.mdp file I have only coulombtype=PME and not the above Ewald settings.
Do you recommend to include those settings? Without the mentioned lines I am
getting reasonabel results (potential energy, kinetic, ,, also T coupling
works perfectly). If I had better to unclude them what is the best value for
fourierspacing?

Thank you,

Do you have same problem if you use the state_prec.cpt?

Could it be just that file is corrupted for some reason ?

Dear all,

I have post this question about a two weeks ago. During these days,  
I followed suggestions from Mark and weixin, but did not fix it.  
Here, I repeat it again to seek more help.


I attempt to extend MD simulation for a coarse-grained system. CG  
models are in MARTINI form. Simulation was carried out on Gromacs  
4.02, 4.03 or 4.07.


I tried to use check point file state.cpt to extend my simulation.  
The mdrun program can read to the check file. But it reported error  
like this:


Reading checkpoint file state.cpt generated: Mon Jun 14 09:48:10 2010

Loaded with Money

starting mdrun 'Protein in POPE bilayer'
2400 steps, 72.0 ps (continuing from step 1200,  
36.0 ps).

step 1200, remaining runtime: 0 s
p0_6991:  p4_error: interrupt SIGSEGV: 11

I check the state.cpt file using gmxdump and compare it with other  
checkpoint files that can be used for extending All-atom  
simulations. I found that in the CG check point file, some sections  
are missing: box-v (3x3) and thermostat-integral.
I am not sure whether this missing sections cause my run crash. If  
it is, could any one tell me possible reasons that result in the  
loss of box-v and thermostat-integral and how to fix the problem?


Your suggestions are greatly helpful and appreciated.

Yes, but there must be some more diagnostic information from 
mdrun about what has gone wrong. Please check stderr / stdout
output files as well as md.log.
