If you have to use version 3.3.1 on that particular machine, use it for all 
steps (EM, PR, MD).  It is better to be consistent, as I told you before. 
Otherwise, upgrade the Gromacs version on the machine that is running those 
calculations to 3.3.3, like the machine where you are doing EM.


Otherwise, just upgrade everything entirely to the newest version :)

[gmx-users] Parameters

2008-11-09 Thread andrea hanna
Dear users,

I have performed a number of simulations using the ffG43a2 ff in 3.2.1 and
the following parameters (only a few are given):

; RUN CONTROL PARAMETERS
integrator   = md
tinit= 0
dt   = 0.002
nsteps   = 125000
comm-mode= Linear
nstcomm  = 1

nstlist  = 10
ns-type  = Grid
pbc  = xyz
rlist= 1.0
domain-decomposition = no

coulombtype  = PME
rcoulomb-switch  = 0
rcoulomb = 1.0
epsilon-r= 1
vdw-type = Cut-off
rvdw-switch  = 0
rvdw = 1.0

I recently noticed from the manual that the nstlist should be 5 with gromos
96 ff. I have a couple of questions.
1. should this be 5 with a 0.001 timestep or with a 0.002 timestep
2. As I have done a lot of work using these parameters I was really looking
for some suggestions/advice as to whether I can use any of my data - I;m
really clinging onto hope here! And as to how 'badly' this choice/mistake
will have affected my work.

Thanks,

[gmx-users] Water model = amber port to gromacs ? = OR Only SPC ?

2008-11-09 Thread Chih-Ying Lin
Hi
Can the TIP3P water model used under gromos 96 force field?

Although the Amber_TIP3P.top can port to gromacs, it based on the
amber99 force field. I read about the imcompatibility of any two force
field parameters from different sources, such as amber99 and gromos96.


Is Gromacs only limited to SPC water model?
Or, where to get the TIP*P.top water model compatible of the gromos96
force field ?

atom number of the tail of the lipid.
 But I want to calculate deuterium order parameter fluctuation over the

Chapter 5 of the manual, like I said last time. Repeating the same 
questions doesn't help you look like someone worth donating time to 
helping :-)


Here in one mail named topology, you had given solution for making pdb 
file from one other than PRODRG i.e.

 Build a small one by hand in a text editor (making sure the density is
suitable and there won't be steric clashes across periodic boundaries),
replicate it with genbox, and equilibrate.
 
But sorry i didnot get it. So explain it by another way.


Please do not combine threads. This makes it hard for people to follow 
discussions.


I'm sorry you don't understand my instructions, but they are perfectly 
clear, and will work if you understand the file format you are creating. 
Unfortunately, nobody has yet managed to write a software package that 
can already do everything every user might want. Since, ionic liquids 
are outside the normal scope of GROMACS, it's not surprising that there 
is not immediate support for it. It would also be a poor idea for 
someone new to GROMACS to immediately try to do things outside of its 
normal scope - the learning curve would be very steep indeed.


If by ionic liquids you mean aqueous solutions containing ions, then 
that's another matter.



can we use PRODRG for making peptides with usual amino acid.


Yes, caveat all the normal warnings about PRODRG.

[gmx-users] Re: High frequency output slow down the simulation?

2008-11-09 Thread chris . neale
This is one reason why I developed the checkpointing script that is  
available in the wiki under beginners - checkpointing_jobs


Often a cluster node allows you to write to ${TMPDIR} which creates a  
unique directory that is actually local and then you can copy the  
contents to your final storage space.


Chris.

Yang Ye wrote:
Writing on local or remote certainly makes a difference. How about  
the speed with no output at all?


Absolutely. Depending on the cluster setup, the best option is often
along the lines of

1) Write to disk physically associated with the CPUs (IIRC for GROMACS,
preferably the disk associated with MPI node 0, where applicable).
2) Write minimally often for your needs - using XTC rather than TRR
output wherever high precision is not required.
3) Arrange for the file to be returned to more convenient or permanent
file space at the end of the job.

This last step might be as simple as adding some cp commands to your
batch script, or perhaps issuing some stage file out instructions to
your batch system.

Your first port of call should be the cluster administrator /
documentation for how best you should be doing these steps. We can't
help much there.

[gmx-users] Gromacs 4 Scaling Benchmarks...

2008-11-09 Thread Yawar JQ
I was wondering if anyone could comment on these benchmark results for the
d.dppc benchmark?

Nodes Cutoff (ns/day) PME (ns/day) 4 1.331 0.797 8 2.564 1.497 16 4.5
1.92 32 8.308 0.575 64 13.5 0.275 128 20.093 - 192 21.6 -

It seems to scale relatively well up to 32-64 nodes without PME. This seems
slightly better than the benchmark results for Gromacs 3 on www.gromacs.org
.

Can someone comment on the magnitude of the performance hit and lack of
scaling with PME is worrying me.

For the PME runs, I set rlist,rvdw,rouloumb=1.2 and the rest set to the
defaults. I can try it with some other settings, larger spacing for the
grid, but I'm not sure how much more that would help. Is there a more
standardized system I should use for testing PME scaling?

This is with GNU compilers and parallelization with OpenMPI 1.2. I'm not
sure what we're using for the FFTW The compute nodes are Dell m600 blades w/
16GB of RAM and dual quad core Intel Xeon 3GHz processors. I believe it's
all ethernet interconnects.

Thanks,
YQ

[gmx-users] Thickness distribution over area of bilayer-membrane

2008-11-09 Thread anirban polley
Hi,
 I saw that average thickness can be measured by peak to peak distance
of a electron density graph. This electron density can be calculated by
g_density command. But g_density gives the average electron density of the
membrane. So, I can get the average thickness of the membrane by subtracting
peak to peak distance of the electron density graph.
 But I want to see how the thickness of the membrane is fluctuating over
area. So, can you tell me how I can calculate  the thickness of the
membrane.

They're already there as tip*p.itp - see the contents of 
share/gromacs/top in your installation. You just need to #include the 
right file. Note that for the purposes of genbox, SPC and TIP3P are 
equivalent. IIRC there's some poking around you need to do with amber99, 
but you should check its documentation for what to do there.

That's a poor idea for anything other than a learning exercise. That

So what were your pdb2gmx command line and responses to prompts? You

I am not sure what is going on in this case. You could try:

which g_spatial

to see what is being picked up. You could also try to move the  
g_spatial executable to its own directory and then execute g_spatial  
from that path:


/new/path/to/executable/g_spatial -h

ls /new/path/to/executable/g_spatial
g_spatial

Otherwise I am not sure what is going on. Are you sure that you didn't

For some forcefields, yes. You need the forcefield to have parameters
