Re: [gmx-users] mdrun -c option "did not work"

2009-06-25 Thread Jérôme Baffreau

Thanks for your answer.

Actually no my run did not finish normally the first time (it has been 
stopped after 7 days because of the time limitation on the cluster it was 
running on). So I started it again (I ran the same command and added the 
option "-append yes") and this time the calculation finished normally, 
but when I look at the md.log file it looks like the second run did not 
add anything since it stops in the middle of a line (in the middle of a 
word actually!)...



Sounds like a filesystem problem.



No, that's because the Linux cluster's system terminated my calculation when 
it reached max. allowed time.



Maybe I just did not use the correct command to start this calculation 
again, that would explain the end of the md.log and the "no-generation" 
of the final structure.
What option(s) should I use with trjconv? Actually I already tried to use 
this command, but it generated a 200 MB pdb file which was not my aim!



Read trjconv -h and see how to choose the only final frame.



I have a stupid question: how do I know how many frames there are in my 
calculation?

Re: [gmx-users] simulation of protein in presence of ATP

2009-06-25 Thread nikhil damle
Hi

Thanks a lot for help. I could run the EM with ATP in its right place. But 
position restrained dynamics gives warnings saying that some angles are rotated 
beyond 30 deg. So when i directly went for MD run it is running fine. What 
dis-advantages i have of not performing position restrained dynamics on my 
ATP-receptor complex system ?

Regards,
Nikhil

pdb2gmx tries to cap termini of peptides automatically, but this isn't a 
peptide. So look at pdb2gmx -h and choose the option that will allow you to 
interactively choose that no terminal capping needs to take place.

No. GROMACS will work over any network across which you can run MPI. For 
MD, you are likely to get what you pay for with that network. You can

RE: [gmx-users] pullx.xvg Meaning of output?

2009-06-25 Thread Berk Hess

Hi,

As I said, if you set a reference group (any name/group for pull_group0),
you apply a potential between two groups group0 and group1.
These two groups are treated completely equivalently (they both
experience the same force, but with opposite sign and they will both move
under influence of the force).

If you use an absolute reference (no name for pull_group0),
the reference is (0,0,0) plus pull_init. There is only pull group,
so only one group will move. But remember that the rest of the system
will move in the other direction if you remove COM motion.

is exactly the same angle. The two MHC chains "jump" away from each

As Tsjerk stated earlier, fitting prior to jump-removal can mess up the 
trajectory.  Try without -fit. g_rms will superimpose the structures for 
you anyway.

RE: [gmx-users] pullx.xvg Meaning of output?

2009-06-25 Thread ilona . baldus

What is meant by absolute reference? Can it be the Origin (0, 0, 0).
Does it assume a random reference point for the pullx.xvg? I get a  
negative value for my first pulling group, even though it is inside  
the box and above the origin. Furthermore 0-Zcoord(pullgrp) doesn't  
fit either.
Does it make any difference if I use reference_group = system or no  
reference group at all? Or what else do you usually use as a reference  
group? What does the reference group do during the simulation? I  
understand that pulling from both sides, Gromacs puts a spring at each  
pullgroup. Is there any restraint on the reference group?


Cheers, Ilona



Quoting Berk Hess :



Hi,

In most cases you shoud NOT use an absolute reference.
In plain MD there is not absolute reference, therefore pulling
without a reference group is a recipe for trouble.
By default center of mass motion removal will be turned on,
in which case you are pulling against the center of mass of
the whole system. If you have solvent, thermodynamically
the pulling will have no effect, since the protein can move
along, if you pull slow enough. If you pull too fast (which is
very likely), you will get horrendous artifacts.

Hi Berk,

I am trying to unfold a protein by stretching/pulling it from both
sides in Z (and -Z) direction. To this end, I am trying to figure out
the best parameters. If I understand you correctly, it should not make
any difference to the pulling itself, i.e. the forces the protein
experiences, whether a reference group is chosen or not.
Unfortunately, my simulations show something different: I did exactly
the same pulling simulation twice, using a backbone atom as reference
group in the first case and no reference group in the second case. The
differences I found are as follows:
When I use no reference group, the molecule center moves less along
the Z axis than in case of a defined reference group. The reason I do
bother about that fact is that  I do not want my molecule to leave the
box on one end due to pulling effects even though the box is more than
3 nm longer than the unfolded protein.
Also, pullf.xvg shows quite similar values for the simulation without
reference group whereas forces differ more if a reference group is
used. (see attached files). Why is that so?

Best wishes, Ilona

You did not understand correctly :)
-pbc nojump removes periodic jumps of atoms, it does not now about molecules.
The effect is that no periodic jumps occur from the reference structure
(either tpr or first frame). This means, for instance, that protein complexes
will stay intact and that water will diffuse out of the box in visualization.

If I understand correctly, -pbc nojump will help when the relevant atoms 
are part of the same [moleculetype]. One fragment in each of your two 
examples is apparently the same four-strand sheet with helix wrapped 
around it. This suggests to me that you might have several chains, each 
as a different [moleculetype] and your observations are actually what 
you should expect. If so, -pbc cluster is the kind of thing you should 
be using.


In any case, a description of the composition of your system and copies 
of a series of commands that reproduces your result would always have 
been appropriate :-)

Re: [gmx-users] Re: Re: problems with some calculated trajectories

2009-06-25 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Bernhard,

The images, are they taken from exactly the same angle? If so, there's
some change in orientation that is just impossible in such a short
time. You didn't happen to fit your structure to a reference prior to
removal of jumps, did you? Fitting messes up PBC and garbles results
from -pbc nojump. If these are not from the original trajectory (mdrun
output), have a look what happens there. Otherwise, trace back all
your steps. Maybe paste here what you've done exactly...

Cheers,

Tsjerk

2009-06-25 Thread Bernhard Knapp
1) trjconv with the "-pbc nojump" option does not help - it removes most 
of the jumps but one big remains- the rmsd for the trajectory is

http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/4.jpg
before the converting with -pbc and
http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/4noJump.jpg
after conversion.

interestingly under linux vmd could load the trajectories which look 
like that:

http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/4afterNoJump1767.jpg
and
http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/4afterNoJump1768.jpg

2) Here an illustration for other trajectories with the same problem:

http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/2.jpg
http://www.meduniwien.ac.at/msi/biosim/bk/jumppoint.jpg


3) gmxcheck returns no error, just this:

Hi,

Could it be a periodicity issue? Have you tried using trjconv -pbc nojump ?

Hey Bernhard, here some thoughts of mine:

In principle, vmd should be able to read the trajectories if pdb2gmx  
tells you that the trajectory is ok. If this is not the case, you can  
use gmx_rescue64 to extract the undamaged parts.


Reasons for damaged trajectories, even when gromacs runs through fine...
... for me - filesystem issues were causing this. In particular this  
happened for me with NFS shares and on Lustre filesystems. My NFS  
problems got solved with an upgrade of the NFS packages on our  
machines (at least 1 1/2 yrs ago).

Re: [gmx-users] Problem wih Fe-S cluster

2009-06-25 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Subarna,

If you just want to retain the structure of the cluster it doesn't
matter too much. It may be good to average values from different
structures, though. HOWEVER, an FeS cluster is a catalytic site, which
probably has fancy electronic properties, which may well affect the
behaviour of the surrounding protein. If you are interested in the
protein dynamics, you want to describe it properly. Doing so requires
proper parameterization, ergo performing quantum mechanical
calculations with validation against experimental data, ergo doing a
lot of work. This is not something for a lazy Sunday afternoon!

Cheers,

Tsjerk

RE: [gmx-users] Can N(CH2)3 be set a charge group?

2009-06-25 Thread Berk Hess

Hi,

I don't think that is a good idea.
I put the following advise in grompp
 "Since atoms only see each other when the centers of geometry of the charge 
groups they belong to are within the cut-off distance, too large charge groups 
can lead to serious cut-off artifacts.\n"
"For efficiency and accuracy, charge group should consist of a few 
atoms.\n"
"For all-atom force fields use: CH3, CH2, CH, NH2, NH, OH, CO2, CO, 
etc.",'

We should also put this somewhere in the manual.

Dear gmx users,

  Can N(CH2)3 be set a charge group? Is it too large to set? Any reply would be 
thanked very much.
