Re: [gmx-users] --enable-threads fails.

2007-04-11 Thread Erik Lindahl

Hi,

The prefetching hardware is pretty good at hiding latencies, but  
obviously you'll get better performance when everything fits in cache.


However, the largest data structures by far are the neighborlists,  
and their _total_ size for the simulation is independent of whether  
you are using multiple processes or multithreading.


Cheers,

Erik

We are only using threads for experimental development of the  
nonbonded interaction loop. The multi-level-cache-locality  
features on modern CPUs (even NUMA on Opterons) means that you  
normally get better performance by partitioning the problem into  
separate MPI processes, where each process resides on a separate  
core.

Re: [gmx-users] BHIS for HIS?

2007-04-11 Thread Erik Lindahl

Hi,

pdb2gmx tries to choose the HIS protonation based on hydrogen bond  
patterns in the structure, so unless you are absolutely certain you  
need the alternative state you should need to do anything. In the  
latter case, just edit the name in the PDB file (to HISB or HISH)  
prior to running pdb2gmx.


Cheers,

Erik

Hi Rongliang Wu,

You could try to get your hands on a GROMOS manual... Alternatively,
draw the histidines using the information in the rtp files.
Alternatively, take a histidine, run it through pdb2gmx with -his and
try all options. Histidine has different protonation states, and one
of the histidines is the one bound to heme iron.

Well, technically you can of course use it, but any energy  
minimization algorithm will only take you to a close local minimum in  
the energy (=enthalpy) landscape.


If you want your model to get closer to the native state you need  
refinement, and that's way more complicated. Search the literature

[gmx-users] energy minimization error

2007-04-11 Thread 李睿
hello,everyone

I am new of gromacs. I am running a sample following the Tutorial for Drug -
Enzyme Complex,which was written by John E.Kerrigan,Ph.D.

When I run the energy minimization ,it has error as followed. 

Range checking error:
Explanation: During neighborsearching, we assign each particle to a grid
based on its coordinates. If your system contains collisions or parameter
errors that give particles very high velocities you might end up with some
coordinates being +-Infinity or NaN (not-a-number). Obviously, we cannot
put these on a grid, so this is usually where we detect those errors.
Make sure your system is properly energy-minimized and that the potential
energy seems reasonable before trying again.

  
  
Variable ci has value -2147483648. It should have been within [ 0 .. 11500 ]
Please report this to the mailing list (gmx-users@gromacs.org)


I don't know Why it has such error? What should I do?  Can you help me?

Re: [gmx-users] energy minimization error

2007-04-11 Thread Yang Ye

Check your trajectory to visually check whether it has exploded. This
may lead you to check all your input files, especially the mdp files.

This error may happen even in good settings, but Variable ci shall not
differ much from the desired range. In that case, I will turn Pressure
coupling off nd restart the simulation from an earlier time.

[gmx-users] overcome the integration problem (installing CVS)

To my best understanding, there is a correction to the single precision

I want to know were can I get it and how to install it. First, the

clear to me how to install the stable CVS and not an experimentally version.

In a minimization, you have no kinetic energy. Thus the potential energy

Yes - this information is part of the force field.


If so how can I incoroprate this into gromacs?


You will need a thorough working knowledge of at least chapter 5 of the 
manual, and plenty from earlier sections. This will also let you assess 
whether the range of functions computed by gromacs is suitable for your 
forcefield.



and also
How to get the starting configuration for the poysiloxanes? ( like .gro,

.gro files are structure files... you're responsible for generating 
them. Search the mailing list for suggestions.


.top files can be generated by pdb2gmx if you can generate suitable .rtp 
monomers, but life may be messy here for branched polymers... you may 
need to make these by hand.


.itp files are included by .top files and include your basic force field 
files as well as regularly recycled units like solvents... you need to 
make these.

[gmx-users] Prot_prep_problem

2007-04-11 Thread pkmukher
Hello gromacs users,


  I am facing a particular problem in the preparation of my
protein.I have a NMR derived structure with hydrogens. To
prepare my protein i thought of a two step procedure
1)stripping the protein of the hydrogens using -ignh and
saving pdb output
2)submitting the pdb output file from stage 1 using the
-inter flag to get my final .top .gro and .pdb files

I find that at the end of step 1 the pdb output is stripped
of hydrogens.
In the second stage I find that the .top file has the
hydrogens listed (only polar hydrogens) but the pdb output
is still without any hydrogens.

I want to follow the gromacs tutorial titled
GROMACS Tutorial for Drug – Enzyme Complex.
http://www2.umdnj.edu/~kerrigje/pdf_files/trp_drug_tutor.pdf

here they have used a prepared protein pdb file while
merging the ligand coordinates to form the final complex.

My questions are

1) why the pdb file written in step two does not contain the
hydrogens and how can i solve this issue?

2) Is there any other way to prepare the ligand-protein
complex without using the protein .pdb output?

3) This is a slightly unrelated question. Could some body
guide me to any tutorials etc where they have shown how to
calculate gausssian charges for the ligand and then
incorporate into the gromacs ligand file?

I can provide the protein structure file. I couldnt load it
to the group mail because of size limitations

Thanking you in anticipation

I use to use opls for nmr structures in order to keep the all-hydrogen in the 
protein and ligand
too. However if you want to be sticked with gromos ff I do as follow:
1. prepare my system with -ignh option in pdb2gmx
2. run the simulation
3. use protonate over the pdb and the final trr in order to analyze for 
instance the violated NOE.
Skip last question, sorry :)

 HI Pkmukher,
 I use to use opls for nmr structures in order to keep the all-hydrogen in the 
 protein and ligand
 too. However if you want to be sticked with gromos ff I do as follow:
 1. prepare my system with -ignh option in pdb2gmx
 2. run the simulation
 3. use protonate over the pdb and the final trr in order to analyze for 
 instance the violated NOE.
 Skip last question, sorry :)

 Hello gromacs users,


   I am facing a particular problem in the preparation of my
 protein.I have a NMR derived structure with hydrogens. To
 prepare my protein i thought of a two step procedure
 1)stripping the protein of the hydrogens using -ignh and
 saving pdb output
 2)submitting the pdb output file from stage 1 using the
 -inter flag to get my final .top .gro and .pdb files

 I find that at the end of step 1 the pdb output is stripped
 of hydrogens.
 In the second stage I find that the .top file has the
 hydrogens listed (only polar hydrogens) but the pdb output
 is still without any hydrogens.

 I want to follow the gromacs tutorial titled
 GROMACS Tutorial for Drug – Enzyme Complex.
 http://www2.umdnj.edu/~kerrigje/pdf_files/trp_drug_tutor.pdf

 here they have used a prepared protein pdb file while
 merging the ligand coordinates to form the final complex.

 My questions are

 1) why the pdb file written in step two does not contain the
 hydrogens and how can i solve this issue?

 2) Is there any other way to prepare the ligand-protein
 complex without using the protein .pdb output?

 3) This is a slightly unrelated question. Could some body
 guide me to any tutorials etc where they have shown how to
 calculate gausssian charges for the ligand and then
 incorporate into the gromacs ligand file?

 I can provide the protein structure file. I couldnt load it

 In a minimization, you have no kinetic energy. Thus the

2007-04-11 Thread Michael Shirts

Hi, all-


I would like to add that for a constant temperature ensemble the effect
of this fix is neglegible.
It is only useful for constant NVE simulations.

Berk.


I think this might need some qualifications. If the constant
temperature dynamics are based inherently on NVE dynamics, they must
be affected similarly.  For example, for Nose-Hoover thermostats,
there exists a conserved quantity.  I would expect that this fix would
also improve that conserved quantity, wouldn't it?

One feature that would be useful is that for any algorithm that has a
conserved energy-like quantity, there should be an entry in the .edr
file with that quantity.  It would be a useful check for algorithmic
consistency.  I don't think this is yet in GROMACS, though I could be
wrong -- I haven't examined the CVS that recently.

How about total energy? In tends to be constant in NVE simulations. I 
don't know what the conserved property would be in an NVT simulation.

David.


For most algorithms that give correct ensembles, there are
pseudo-energy properties that are conserved.  For NVE, it's obviously
the energy.  For Nose-Hoover NPT, there's a term involving the mass
of the coupling to the heat reservoir that, when added to the scaled
energy term produces a quantity that will be conserved.  For
Parrinello-Rahman dynamics, there's a similar term involving the
coupling to the pressure bath.


It would.
Although I would still argue that when using a thermostat there
is in most cases no useful quantity that would be affected
by the current, very small, velocity inaccuracies.
Berk


I think algorithmic self-consistency could generally be justified as
useful.  If one is applying a certain algorithm, it's good to have a
measure of how well that algorithm is being implemented, so one can be
sure that any errors are negligible.  I agree with Berk that such
inaccuracies are small.  But it's good to have a measure of how small
they are built in, just to be sure! :)

Best,
Michael

[gmx-users] wall_atomtype

2007-04-11 Thread Manuel Valera
Greetings to All

I have a question about a new feature in the cvs code
and I was wondering if there was anybody who could
give
me a hand of a bit of help.
Thanks in advanced.

I am working on a project that involves simulation of
confined water between two hydrophobic surfaces.
I noticed that recently there was an addition to the
gromacs source code that would allow for this kind of
simulations

I downloaded the cvs source code to try out this new
feature, ran a small simulation of water with pbc=xy
and no surfaces and could see the water evaporate as
was expected

The problems occurs when I need to add surfaces to the

simulation. There are some new variables that I don't
know how to set and I have not been able to figure
this out from the source code.

What are the appropriate values for wall_atomtype?
I want to have a LJ interaction between the wall and
the oxygen atom in
the water molecule.
How can I do this with this new feature?

In the function do_walls we have (file wall.c)

if (ir-wall_type == ewt93) {
  fac_d[w] = ir-wall_density[w]*M_PI/6;
  fac_r[w] = ir-wall_density[w]*M_PI/45;
} else if (ir-wall_type == ewt104) {
  fac_d[w] = ir-wall_density[w]*M_PI/2;
  fac_r[w] = ir-wall_density[w]*M_PI/5;
}

Where are these factor coming from, is there a
reference that I can look at?

What would be appropriate values for the variable
wall_density?

Would these be the appropriate changes to my
grompp.mpd file to get
this feature working of is there anything else that I
need to add?

pbc=xy
nwall=2
wall_type=9-3
wall_atomtype = ? ?
wall_density = ? ?

I apologized if these are too many questions!!

I realized this a very new feature and probably it is
not well tested, yet I would like to try it out and
see if I can use this for my project

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,

Manuel Valera

[gmx-users] Prot_prep_query

2007-04-11 Thread pkmukher
Hi,

  Thanks for your suggestions. I was using the 0 option
gromos FF in pdb2gmx. As you said the behavior is strange.
However i found a fix. I was using  a 2 step procedure

1) strip hydrogen  output pdb
2) input pdb  write output pdb with -inter flag

instead i used 

1) strip hydrogen  output pdb
2) input pdb  write pdb gro top using -inter flag (gro has
hydrogens, pdb does not)
3) use gro as input  take pdb output (pdb has hydrogens)

Thanks
