[gmx-users] dihedral restraints in v3.3 different than v3.3.1 (or broken)

2008-01-26 Thread chris . neale

This is just a notice for the archives.

I was recently working on a new cluster where only gromacs 3.3 is  
installed. It took me a while to figure out that the [  
dihedral_restraints ] section is either differently implemented or  
broken in 3.3 compared to 3.3.1. Since the online list of revisions is  
not up to date past 3.2, I thought I would put a note on the mailing  
list.


There is some discussion about versions and dihedral restraints here:
http://www.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2006-March/020512.html

And for using dihedral restraints in 3.3.1, a description is here:
http://www.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2006-December/025087.html

[gmx-users] energy minimization breaks freeze group apart

2008-01-26 Thread Patricia Francis-Lyon

I want to do energy minimization on a loop that had been missing and was filled 
in by  modloop, while freezing the rest of the protein. 
 
Before the minimization I have an SO4 ion and 135 water molecules from the 
crystallography around the protein. After the minimization the protein has been 
translated in the y direction away from the water and SO4. 
 
My freeze group is :
0 & ! 15 which is System and not loop. 
 
I’m confused about why part of the freeze group (the protein) is translated 
away from the other part (So4 + crystal water). This happens with both steep 
and l-bfgs.
 
Thanks for your help!

Re: [gmx-users] problem regarding editconf

Please be accurate. The above command line was not what the tutorial will
have had - rather "editconf -bt cubic" etc.

Using the same file name for input and output is asking for trouble.

That depends what you want the simulation to do. 0.4nm margins are so
small that your periodic copies will be interacting with each other. This
is unrealistic. Check out some textbook material here.

[gmx-users] problem regarding editconf

2008-01-26 Thread sudheer babu
hi all,
i have one problem regarding 'editconf' for using add simulation box, my
protein contain 59 residues + crystal water -103 molecules
In one tutorial they have used following command for add simualation box
1.editconf  ­bt cubic –f fws.pdb –o fws.pdb –d 0.9- in this 0.9 is nm

 i have reffered in gmxusers(archives) they have used following command for
adding simulation box and water
 1. editconf -f popc128a.pdb -o po_box.pdb -box 6.1065 6.1059 9. -c
 2. genbox  -cp  po_box.pdb  -cs  -o  po_sol.pdb  -p  lip.top

based on above things i have used following commands for adding simulation
box and water

1.editconf  ­bt cubic –f fws.pdb –o fws.pdb –d 0.4- in this 0.4 is nm
2. genbox  -cp  po_box.pdb  -cs  -o  po_sol.pdb  -p  prot.top
program was finished without error and it added 4884 water molecules around
my protein
is it right, what i have done  or any  chages i have to  do?

pls help me.
thanks in advance.

[gmx-users] ask help for Potential energy curve calculation

2008-01-26 Thread Yunan Yan

Dear all,

Now I need use GROMACS/CPMD to calculate the potential energy
curve for a molecular solved in liquid. Please see the related
content of the CPMD_inp.tmpl and the output for the details.

$ cat em.mdp
title   =  AU
cpp =  /usr/bin/cpp
constraints =  all-bonds
constraint_algorithm= shake
integrator  =  steep
nsteps  =  50
...

QMMM=  yes
QMmethod=  CPMD
QMMMscheme  =  normal
QMMM-grps   =  QM
QMbasis =  STO-3G
planewavecutoff =  25
qmmmcoul_cutoff =  25
MMlayer_radii   =  10 10
MMlayer_updfqs  =  1  1
;  box for cpmd run in a.u.
qmbox_cpmd  =  40.   30.   30.

$ head -7 CPMD_inp.tmpl
&CPMD
INTERFACE GMX PCGFIRST
PCG MINIMIZE
MOLECULE CENTER OFF
OPTIMIZE WAVEFUNCTION
&END

$ cat output.em

   THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS ARE MUTUALLY  EXCLUSIVE
  MOLECULAR DYNAMICS
   GEOMETRY OPTIMIZATION
   WAVEFUNCTION OPTIMIZATION
  KOHN-SHAM ENERGIES
VIBRATIONAL ANALYSIS
  PROPERTIES
ORBITAL HARDNESS
  ELECTRONIC SPECTRA
DEBUG FORCES
 LINEAR RESPONSE
 CLASSICAL INTERFACE


 PROGRAM STOPS IN SUBROUTINE CONTROL| RUNOPTIONS

Would anyone tell me how I can calculte potential energy
curve with Gromacs/CPMD if the interface GMX and the
OPTIMIZE option cannot be used at the same time?

Thank you so much.

Best regards,
Yun-an
