[gmx-users] POPC number

2008-09-16 Thread sudheer babu
Hi gmx-users,
whats the number of POPC molecules should be there after inserting protein
into popc? In my case 90 popc molecules are there around the protein from
128 molecues which I downloaded from Dr.Tielman's website.

Any suggestion will be appreciated
Thanks in advance.

[gmx-users] comprehension of comm_grps

2008-09-16 Thread Christian Seifert
Dear GMXer,

I have a protein which is stretched in one dimension and therefore use a
rectangular box (filled with water/ions). To protect the protein from
self interactions over the pbc, the protein may not rotate in this
rectangular box.

The nearest solution would be to set:
comm_mode = angular
comm_grps = system

But (according to previous threads in this list) this would lead to
clashes at the pbc boundary.


Another idea would be the following setting:
comm_mode = angular
comm_grps = protein

But I don't this would lead to one of the following two problems:
A) comm_grps = protein just change the position of the calculated
center of mass from the whole system to the position of the center of
mass of the protein and still rotates the WHOLE SYSTEM, which would lead
to the same problem described above or
B) comm_grps = protein deletes just the rotation of the PROTEIN around
the center of mass of the protein, which would lead to small shear
forces at the surface of the protein with the water (which might perhaps
be neglected).

Which problem (A or B) occurs? Are there other solutions?

Best wishes,
Christian.

Re: [gmx-users] POPC number

2008-09-16 Thread Jochen Hub
I guess that depends on the size of your protein. You should have enough
 lipds such that the protein doesn't interact with its preriodic image.
90 POPC seem to be a bit to few for that. In my aquaporin simulations, I
usually had something like 270 POPE molecules, but if you simulate a
smaller protein, less lipids may be sufficient. You may also want to use
a hexagonal box which will allow you have less lipids and water.

cheers, jochen

You could, but I don't see the point.  In equilibrating membrane protein 
systems, it is very important to optimize the lipid positions around the protein 
at the outset of the simulation (i.e., packing).  So allowing the protein to 
move unrestrained while restraining the lipids makes no sense (and you will 
probably generate some artificial interactions).  You will want to apply PR to 
the protein, allowing the lipids to pack around it, then remove the PR from the 
protein and proceed with data collection.

There are a couple options.

1. Start with a bigger lipid solvent, created with genconf (i.e., genconf 
-nbox 2 2 1 will give a system that starts with 512 lipids)


2. Use a z dimension that corresponds to the original POPC bilayer.  There are 
two POPC structures available at Tieleman's site, neither of which have a 
vertical box dimension of 6.3.  So, unless you have made some modifications to 
the dimensions of the box, you should start by trying the original z box size, 
if it will adequately accommodate your system.  If your box size is incorrect, 
genbox tries to overlay more of the solvent box into your system, which is 
probably why you're getting an uneven distribution of water.


3. Make sure your system is centered within the box.

If you #include lipid.itp then you are not doing what I have said.  You must 
append the parameters from lipid.itp into the force field file that you are using.


For example:

WRONG:
#include ffgmx.itp
#include lipid.itp
#include dppc.itp

RIGHT:
#include ffgmx_lipid.itp ; modify ffgmxnb.itp and ffgmxbon.itp to 
include 	   ; lipid.itp parameters

#include dppc.itp

[gmx-users] POPC number

2008-09-16 Thread chris . neale

I guess that depends on the size of your protein. You should have enough
lipds such that the protein doesn't interact with its preriodic image.
90 POPC seem to be a bit to few for that. In my aquaporin simulations, I
usually had something like 270 POPE molecules, but if you simulate a
smaller protein, less lipids may be sufficient. You may also want to use
a hexagonal box which will allow you have less lipids and water.


A hexagonal box? Great. How does one go about constructing that? Is  
this a cylinder-like box with hexagonal shape or just a triclinic one?  
In the triclinic case, does the PBC membrane turn out as it should?


Thanks,
Chris.

Hey Chris,

a hexagonal box is a special case of a triclinic one: Here we go:

echo CRYST1  90.0  90.0   40.00  90.00  90.00  60.0 P 1   1 
x.pdb
genbox -cp x.pdb -cs tip4p -o filled.pdb
echo 0|trjconv -f filled.pdb -o compact.pdb -ur compact -s filled.pdb
pymol compact.pdb

Have fun,
Jochen



 
 Thanks,
 Chris.

And yes, the PBCs work just fine, as expected from any triclinic box.

Re: [gmx-users] still system exploid

2008-09-16 Thread Justin A. Lemkul
What kind of solvent are you using, anyway?  Your original post said it was an 
organic solvent, but in one of your .mdp files you've got POPC, which would 
imply a membrane.  What kind of system are we dealing with?


The bottom line is that you have severe atomic overlap, and you might be able to 
get some clue from the LINCS warnings (which I believe you quoted before) as to 
where things start to fall apart.


If solvent atoms near the protein are the problem, you could temporarily 
increase the VDW radius of, say, carbon during the genbox stage, and increase 
your box size slightly (since the solvent will contract during a simulation).  A 
bit of trial and error may be in order there.

It sounds like your installation is faulty.  What architecture are you running 
on?  What compilers did you use?


If you are just starting out, it is probably better to use an official release 
of Gromacs (the latest being 3.3.3), since 4.0beta1 is still in development.

 It sounds like your installation is faulty.  What architecture are you
 running on?  What compilers did you use?

 If you are just starting out, it is probably better to use an official
 release of Gromacs (the latest being 3.3.3), since 4.0beta1 is still in
 development.

Be careful to use a compatible gcc version (i.e., not 4.1.x).  Bad
compilers can often produce nonfunctional executables.

[gmx-users] still system exploid

2008-09-16 Thread Morteza Khabiri
Dear gmxuser,

Thanks for your all helps. But still I have problem. As you friend said I
increase the vdw and box size and also i decrease the time step till
0.0001 but unfortunately system crash befor EM running. I do check with
ngmx.
 To reply the question that said what is your system? My system is ACETONE
+ water + protein  which i mixed water and protein before and i just put
the protein in the solution of ACETONE and water. About mdp that has a
popc, I should say that this mdp was fpr my membrane which i used it
before and i just change some of the parameter of this file and because
the name was not important i did not change it.

I am sorry my gro file is big and because of this the gmxmail servic avoid
to send it. I will send to privet email.

for coulomb  i use the followings:
 1-
coulombtype  = PME
rcoulomb-switch  = 0
rcoulomb = 1.0
; Dielectric constant (DC) for cut-off or DC of reaction field
epsilon-r= 1
; Method for doing Van der Waals
vdw-type = Cut-off
; cut-off lengths
rvdw-switch  = 0
rvdw = 1.2

2-
coulombtype = cut-off
rcoulomb= 1.8
vdwtype = cut-off
rvdw= 1.0


again thanks

Morteza

Justin,
A few days ago I experienced the same problem with genbox in gmx-4.0-beta. I 
didn't
pay much attention to it since it's just CVS but it actually was
permanently present. gmx-4.0 compiled with the same parameters on the same 
system does not
give this error.

Xianghong,
There's no such problem in gmx-3.3.3 and earlier ones. I would suggest
you to use them to avoid much headache.

[gmx-users] dielectric constant of the medium

2008-09-16 Thread Nazish Hoda
Hi all,

 

I am doing some coarse-grained simulations, where I have removed the solvent
molecules from the system. In order to incorporate the effect of solvent in
my simulations, I need to tune the dielectric constant of the medium. 


Will just changing epsilon_r in the mdp file work or do I need to do some
other fancy stuff? 

Later on, I want to use two different dielectric constants, i.e. a near
field value and a far field value.

Is there an easy way of doing this or do I need to modify the source code ? 

I don't understand the reaction field concept well, still will something on
that line work ?

 

Thanks,  Nazish

[gmx-users] PBS Script - trjconv Options

2008-09-16 Thread VENKATESH HARIHARAN
Hello,

Simple question.  I am running constraint pulling and getting the .xtc and .tpr
output files in order to create a pdb video using trjconv.  I am running
simulations on a cluster, and so a pbs script must be submitted with the
necessary commands.  When using trjconv command, the group must subsequently be
specified.  Is there any way to modify the below command to also select a
specific group (i.e. - 1 for 'Protein').  For example, when using mdrun, the
-ff option can be used to specify which forcefield to use.  Is there something
similar to this with regards to the group selection when using trjconv?  Thanks.

trjconv -s peptide.tpr -f trajectory.xtc -o pullvideo.pdb
