[gmx-users] still can not run md for creatine

2010-11-15 Thread Olga Ivchenko
Dear All,

I still have troubles of starting running md for creatine. For which I
created topology using PRODRG programm.
The only difference between creatine.top and creating.itp is that creatine
top has additional lines:
 #include ffgmx.itp
#include creatine.itp

Also please can you tell me where can I get ffgmx.itp file?

By trying to run md I am getting an error: Fatal error:
moleculetype UNK is redefined




Yours sincerely,
Olga

That won't work because you effectively have the same contents twice. 
See http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Include_File_Mechanism




Also please can you tell me where can I get ffgmx.itp file?


You probably don't want to. ffgmx has been deprecated for most of a 
decade. Use the PRODRG 2.5 beta server that will generate a 
GROMACS-compatible topology file. Other suggestions for other force 
fields may be found in step 5 of 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Steps_to_Perform_a_Simulation?highlight=Swissparam. 
You should choose the forcefield based on what you want to observe, 
rather than by what is available for the first tool that comes to hand.

Yep, you have the same contents twice. Hence redefined

Re: [gmx-users] PGI link error: unknown switch --rpath attempted static link of dynamic object fftw/lib/libfftw3.so

2010-11-15 Thread Yudong Sun

Hi,

I want to build an all static library because a job running on 
background nodes may not be able to find the dynamic libraries installed 
on the front node in my system.


My configure line for GCC is:

./configure --prefix=/path-to/gromacs_4.5.3 --enable-mpi --enable-double 
CC=cc CFLAGS=-O3 MPICC=cc


Here I use cc for both C compiler and MPI compiler because it is the 
name of the C compiler wrapper used on my system which is also 
functioning for the MPI C compiler.


The fftw library is pre-installed on my system which is managed by the 
Modules package. When loaded, the fftw module sets the environment 
variables as:


prepend-path LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/lib
setenv   FFTW_POST_LINK_OPTS  -L/opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/lib 
-Wl,-rpath=/opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/lib -lfftw3 -lfftw3f

setenv   FFTW_INCLUDE_OPTS  -I/opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/include
setenv   FFTW_DIR /opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/lib
setenv   FFTW_INC /opt/fftw/3.2.2.1/include

In make, the link line causing the libfftw3 error is:

cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../src -I/usr/include/libxml2 
-I../../include 
-DGMXLIBDIR=\/usr/local/packages/nag/GROMACS/phase2b_4.5.3/share/top\

GCC doesn't support the -rpath flag but it seems not a problem here.

The fftw library has the static and dynamic libraries provided. The 
linker picks the libfftw3.so. This may be relevant to the specification 
in the libfftw3.la:


# libfftw3.la - a libtool library file

Is there any workaround to instruct the linker to use the static libfftw3.a?

Thanks,

Yudong

Little bit more background/context would help.

Do you try to compile an all static library? If so you of course need a
static library of fftw. If it is not all static it normally should
accept the dynamic fftw. Then please give us the full configure line,
the gcc command line of the link step and the full error message.

I use the pre-installed FFTW 3.2.2.1 library on my Linux

I would start with a literature search, then the Users' Contribution section of 
the Gromacs site, then perhaps poke around Google.


If nothing turns up, then you've got a long road of parameterization ahead of 
you.

Re: [gmx-users] Freeze Groups in Gromacs 4.5.x (bug?)!!!

2010-11-15 Thread Miguel Machuqueiro


Dear Mark, users and developers...

Indeed, the source of the problems comes from both the constraints and 
the pressure bath. The temperature bath did not seem to interfere.


Now, the problem is clear, to remove constraints is not only compulsory 
but also recommendable for such simulations.


However, the pressure bath (which is the major source of the problems) 
should not play such a role. This is a limitation of the current 
implementation of GROMACS or just a plain BUG.


I think most people would agree that one should not be limited to NVT 
simulations when using freeze groups.


A previous version (3.2.1) that we have been using in our group was 
completely immune to both pressure bath and constraints when simulating 
a frozen protein in water. As far as I remember, this older version did 
a normal step integration with all its requisites and, in the end, just 
took back the previous positions for the frozen group (protein).


My question remains...

Will we be able to use freeze groups together with a NPT simulation in 
Gromacs 4.5.x???


Any comments from the developers are welcome...

Regards,
Miguel

Dear users and developers,

In GROMACS 4.5.x when using freeze groups on a Protein in a
Protein+Solvent system, I noticed that the coordinates of a few atoms
(not many, but a few) are changed after a short period of MD (~0.2
ps). Of course, this is wrong!

Are there any options in MDP/GROMPP/MDRUN that can be originating
this? Or it is some bug in the code?

A copy of my input file follows below.

Note that this version of GROMACS crashes if one uses constraints in
LINCS together with freeze groups. Hence the constraints = none line.

Indeed, because imposing the constraints can perturb the (frozen)
positions slightly, leading to numerical issues... Similarly, if you
couple the frozen groups to a heat bath, you're going to find that
they're not actually frozen. And pressure-coupling is not known to
always play nicely with frozen groups either (search the archive for more).


Any help is appreciated.

Miguel

[gmx-users] g_sas and g_rdf

2010-11-15 Thread Carla Jamous
Hi everyone,

I'm trying to look at the radial distribution function of water around the
surface of my protein. For that, I calculated the surface area per residue
(g_sas -or).
Since I didn't find in the litterature any criteria to choose a minimum area
value to count a residue as a a surface residue, I chose to analyze the
residues that have an area value  1.3 nm2

I counted 23 residues that have area values  1.3 nm2

I made an index file with one index group for each residue and on index
group for SOL_OW
Then I ran g_rdf on my trajectory
g_rdf -s .tpr -f .xtc -n .ndx -o rdf.xvg -bin  0.02 -com
I chose: reference group=the residue I want to analyze
 group = SOL_OW

even though I'm analyzing the residues that have large surface area values,
my RDF plot doesn't look like what I was execting: it means an RDF plot with
a peak at g(r)=2 or 3 then a decrease in g(r) and finally a g(r)=1
My peak is at g(r)=0.7 and then it increases to g(r)=1

Does anyone have an idea why I have this kind of plot? Because I didn't find
any answers in the mailing list.

Thank you,
Carla

[gmx-users] Extracting protein plus a shell of water from a .xtc file

2010-11-15 Thread Paolo Conflitti

Dear gmx-users,

 I'm trying to extract a protein plus a shell of water of a given 
radius from the .xtc and .gro files obtained from a simulation step. My 
purpose is to make a second box, smaller then the first, with the 
protein and the shell of solvent in order to optimize the performance of 
the simulations that I'm running (they require an incredible amount of 
time due to the high number of H2O molecules in the box) and retain the 
data obtained till now without starting a new run from the beginning.
 I've tried to use trjorder with the command -o .pdb -nshell .xvg -r 
x.x and I've obtained a .pdb file with the distances of the molecules of 
water from the protein (reference group: Protein, group of molecules to 
be ordere: SOL) printed in the B-factor field.
 Now I'm going to modify the pdb file removing all the molecules that 
are too far from the protein. I will use this file to make a second box, 
add the water needed to fill it and restart the simulation.
 I'm concerned about this procedure because I'm afraid that I'll 
introduce some errors in the new run, so I wonder if there's a faster 
way to achieve the same result. I've tried different ways, even using 
other softwares (e.g: MolMol), but I have not been able to extract the 
shell of water.
 If there's no other way to do this, could someone please give me a 
hint about the procedure I'm attempting on?

 Thanks in advance for your attention and patience.

[gmx-users] Re: Freeze Groups in Gromacs 4.5.x (bug?)!!!

2010-11-15 Thread Vitaly Chaban
Hey, Miguel -

Hmm... I think, frozen particles will give unnatural pressure of your
system, that's why barostats do not do their jobs as expected. Maybe
it could be interesting to rescale the coordinates of the frozen atoms
with the box vectors (with certain corrections in pressure
calculation)... but it should be another keyword to control such
trick.

Dr. Vitaly Chaban

 Indeed, the source of the problems comes from both the constraints and
 the pressure bath. The temperature bath did not seem to interfere.

 Now, the problem is clear, to remove constraints is not only compulsory
 but also recommendable for such simulations.

 However, the pressure bath (which is the major source of the problems)
 should not play such a role. This is a limitation of the current
 implementation of GROMACS or just a plain BUG.

 I think most people would agree that one should not be limited to NVT
 simulations when using freeze groups.

 A previous version (3.2.1) that we have been using in our group was
 completely immune to both pressure bath and constraints when simulating
 a frozen protein in water. As far as I remember, this older version did
 a normal step integration with all its requisites and, in the end, just
 took back the previous positions for the frozen group (protein).

 My question remains...

 Will we be able to use freeze groups together with a NPT simulation in
 Gromacs 4.5.x???

 Any comments from the developers are welcome...

 Regards,
 Miguel

 Dear users and developers,

 In GROMACS 4.5.x when using freeze groups on a Protein in a
 Protein+Solvent system, I noticed that the coordinates of a few atoms
 (not many, but a few) are changed after a short period of MD (~0.2
 ps). Of course, this is wrong!

 Are there any options in MDP/GROMPP/MDRUN that can be originating
 this? Or it is some bug in the code?

 A copy of my input file follows below.

 Note that this version of GROMACS crashes if one uses constraints in
 LINCS together with freeze groups. Hence the constraints = none line.
 Indeed, because imposing the constraints can perturb the (frozen)
 positions slightly, leading to numerical issues... Similarly, if you
 couple the frozen groups to a heat bath, you're going to find that
 they're not actually frozen. And pressure-coupling is not known to
 always play nicely with frozen groups either (search the archive for more).

 Any help is appreciated.

 Miguel

Olga -

What is gromos43a1.ff? I do not remember the files with ff-extension
in gromacs. I am sure you should include the topology files in the
inverse order as compared to what is below:
1) general FF with atoms, bonds, angles, etc (~ include gromos43a1.ff);
2) molecule definition, its own atoms, bonds, etc (~ include creatine.itp)

After that, you'll probably get another error, and it will be more informative.

Good luck!

Hello,

   I want to turn off electrostatic interactions between CH4 and SOL  
in my system. I am using ffG53a6 forcefield for CH4 and spc for my  
water model. CH4 is an united atom and so I can't make the charges

electrostatic interactions?

Re: [gmx-users] Parameterization

2010-11-15 Thread Anthony Cruz Balberdi
Dear Yuvraj:

There is a protocol to find the charges and force field parameters for
new molecules for the AMBER force field. The best way is to try to
find the parameters from a publication. If you dont find anything then
use RED to find the charges (http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/RED/).
Then use ambertools to find the necessary force field parameters and
generate an AMBER topology. After that use acpype to transform the
amber topology to a GROMACS topology. From the GROMACS topology the
create an itp file to use in your GROMACS TOPOLOGY.

To better understand what I said please read the reference for the
force field, the GROMACS manual and the RED tutorial.

Best Regards,

Anthony

Dear gmx-users,

 I'm trying to extract a protein plus a shell of water of a given 
radius from the .xtc and .gro files obtained from a simulation step. 
My purpose is to make a second box, smaller then the first, with the 
protein and the shell of solvent in order to optimize the performance 
of the simulations that I'm running (they require an incredible amount 
of time due to the high number of H2O molecules in the box) and retain 
the data obtained till now without starting a new run from the beginning.
 I've tried to use trjorder with the command -o .pdb -nshell .xvg -r 
x.x and I've obtained a .pdb file with the distances of the molecules 
of water from the protein (reference group: Protein, group of 
molecules to be ordere: SOL) printed in the B-factor field.
 Now I'm going to modify the pdb file removing all the molecules that 
are too far from the protein. I will use this file to make a second 
box, add the water needed to fill it and restart the simulation.
 I'm concerned about this procedure because I'm afraid that I'll 
introduce some errors in the new run, so I wonder if there's a faster 
way to achieve the same result. I've tried different ways, even using 
other softwares (e.g: MolMol), but I have not been able to extract the 
shell of water.
 If there's no other way to do this, could someone please give me a 
hint about the procedure I'm attempting on?

 Thanks in advance for your attention and patience.



Since you'll have to re-equilibrate this new water box anyway, why not 
just take away all the water, and use editconf and genbox to generate 
the box of the new size? There's no significant advantage to using your 
waters in the .xtc over those generated by genbox.


g_select is a new GROMACS 4.5 tool that is well suited to your approach 
for solving this problem, but I do not think even its limited complexity 
is worth while.

Just the $0.02 that I always seem to contribute in these types of discussions - 
the topology you have shown below contains some likely problems.  The charges 
(and massive charge group size) can lead to artifacts.  We've got a paper due 
out soon about the implications of incorrect charges, but I would advise you 
that this topology should *not* be used for production simulation.  You'd be 
better off spending the time to properly parameterize the molecule rather than 
run a bunch of simulations and get questionable (at best) or wrong (at worst)

Re: [gmx-users] compressing two selections or just the reverse of pulling simulation

2010-11-15 Thread Justin A. Lemkul



Samrat Pal wrote:

Hi All,
   In general what we do in pulling simulations that we pull one 
selection keeping the other fixed. In that case the distance between the 
two selections increases with time. Now, I want to push the selections 
i.e. one selection will be kept fixed and the other will be pushed 
towards the fixed one so that the distance between the two selection 
will decrease. Is it possible to do that in GROMACS? What should I 
modify in the mdp file? I am attaching a mdp file that I have used for 
pulling simulations (only the pull part).
 
; pull code

pull = umbrella
pull_geometry = distance
pull_dim = N N Y
pull_start = yes
pull_ngroups = 1
pull_group0 = freeze
pull_group1 = pull
pull_rate1 = 0.01
pull_k1 = 1000
 
I have used pull_dim N N Y as I am interested to pull only in the z 
direction. Should I just use N N -Y to do the compressing simulations?
 


You can't specify negative yes for a pulling direction.  Instead, just set the 
pull rate to, i.e., -0.01 to pull in the opposite direction.


-Justin


Please suggest.
 
Thanks in advance.

Re: [gmx-users] Installing mdrun-gpu Using Gromacs-4.5.3

2010-11-15 Thread Szilárd Páll
Hi Solomon,

 [100%] Building C object src/kernel/CMakeFiles/mdrun.dir/md_openmm.c.o
 Linking CXX executable mdrun-gpu
 ld: warning: in /usr/local/openmm/lib/libOpenMM.dylib, file was built for
 i386 which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64)

The above linker message clearly states what the issue is. You are
compiling gromacs on and for 64 bit platform, while the OpenMM library
you are trying to use is a 32 bit one. You have two options: a) either
use 64 bit OpenMM or b) compile gromacs in 32 bit.

AFAIR OpenMM only provides 32 bit Mac binaries so for a) you'll have
to compile OpenMM in 64 bit. For b) you can add -m32 to the compiler
flags and everything should work out just fine (though I have to admit
that I've never tried this on a Mac).

Cheers,

Re: [gmx-users] Re: still can not run md for creatine

2010-11-15 Thread Esteban Gabriel Vega Hissi
Justin,

Regarding the charges you mention, what do you think about RESP charges for
this kind of compounds (drugs) parameterization?

Best wishes

Esteban

 Just the $0.02 that I always seem to contribute in these types of
 discussions - the topology you have shown below contains some likely
 problems.  The charges (and massive charge group size) can lead to
 artifacts.  We've got a paper due out soon about the implications of
 incorrect charges, but I would advise you that this topology should *not* be
 used for production simulation.  You'd be better off spending the time to
 properly parameterize the molecule rather than run a bunch of simulations
 and get questionable (at best) or wrong (at worst) results.
