Re: [gmx-users] g_clustsize output

Hello,
Thanks for the response. g_clustsize outputs two xpm files of the
weighted and non-weighted cluster size vs time. Is there another way for
me to get number of clusters vs cluster size?

Not without programming, but since the information is there when the 
xpmp files are written that should not be too difficult.



Thanks,
Mike

Hello,
I have a system of dimers which spontaneously assemble into clusters. I
would like to get a plot of the number of clusters of size s vs s. In
looking at g_clustsize I am able to obtain the average number of
clusters vs time, the average cluster size vs time and a histogram of
the average number of molecules in a cluster of size s. Am I missing
something? Is there a way for me to get the number of clusters of a
particular size vs cluster size?

Thanks,
Mike Tomasini

g_clustsize will make an xpm plot for this as well, IIRC it is called
csize.xpm. You can turn it into eps using xpm2ps.

To: gmx-users@gromacs.org

  Dear Gromacs users
  I can remember up to one year ago oldwww.gromacs indexed a list
  of published papers which were based on gromacs platform .
  but now I can't find it anymore .
  Anyone knows whether the list is still on the server or it has
  been removed ?
 
It was lost in the move to the new server. Maybe we'll make a new one 
one day, but if you can do literature search you can just search for the 
papers citing those original gromacs papers.

[gmx-users] the output of do_dssp

2010-05-22 Thread Hsin-Lin
Hi,

I use do_dssp to generate xvg file collect the last line to make a plot.
There are something written in this way:
--
@ s0 legend Structure
@ s1 legend Coil
@ s2 legend Bend 
0514   1
---
My system is dimer and each peptide has 6 residue.
And the number I choose to analyze is 1. Protein.

Now I have a question, if I want to calculate the percentage of secondary
structure.
In the example above, is it calculated in this way 5/12=42%?

[ settles ] in your water .itp file chooses settle. You can choose LINCS or 
SHAKE in the .mdp file.

Then you have a problem.  Your output indicates 14 residues are in a random 
coil, so either you have more than 12 total residues, or something went wrong in 
the dssp calculation.



And the number I choose to analyze is 1. Protein.



Perhaps this is why you had a problem.  Normally, choosing Protein would cause 
the calculation to hang, but maybe that is not the case any more.  See here for 
the proper group to choose and the rationale:


http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Gromacs_Utilities/do_dssp


Now I have a question, if I want to calculate the percentage of secondary
structure.
In the example above, is it calculated in this way 5/12=42%?



I'd question your results first...you don't have 12 residues in your 
calculation, otherwise your protein is 14/12 = 117% random coil!  Also realize 
that (by default) the Structure term only includes alpha helix, beta strand, 
bend, and turn.  Other structural elements are not included.  That may or may 
not be what you want, depending on the structural elements of your protein.

Hi,Thank you for your help.Now there is this question that I have just .pdb 
file and when use protonate command it is protonate -f drg.pdb -o drg.gro, 
this is without hydrogens atoms too.I think something is wrong, but I don't 
know what it is.In definition of protonate there is protonate reads (a) 
conformation(s) and adds all missing hydrogens as defined in ffgmx2.hdb. but I 
can't add hydrogens. What is my problem?Thanksyou zou wrote:
 Hi again,
 
 Sorry, I have one question now, what is the meaning of structure? I think

Yes, a coordinate file contains a structure.

 If it is true, when I used editconf -f drg.pdb -o drg.gro number of atoms
 are different from top file and editconf can not add hydrogens to drg.gro. If
 Gromacs can handle .pdb, How can it do this, because number of atoms are
 different(Which command I have to use?). If can't handle it how can I add
 Hydrogens to drg.gro?
 

The underlying assumption when running any simulation is that you have 
developed 
the proper parameters for the ligand and that it has an appropriate structure. 
If you need additional hydrogens, the Gromacs protonate tool can generate an 
all-atom structure.

 If you want to use x2top, the assumption is that the structure is already 
 appropriate as is, that is it is properly protonated. The only tool that is 
 smart enough to add force field-specific hydrogens is pdb2gmx. If you're
 using OPLS-AA, then you should have all hydrogens present, anyway. If that's
 true, then you can use editconf to create a .gro file (which is not
 absolutely necessary; Gromacs can handle .pdb files just fine). If you don't
 have all the appropriate atoms present in your molecule's structure, then you
 need to build a proper structure.

Well, your command isn't correct.  The protonate command takes (at minimum) the 
-s flag, not -f (which is optional, and context-dependent, if I recall).


The other fact is that if a residue isn't listed in ffgmx2.hdb, it won't get 
protonated, but it is trivial to add new molecules into the .hdb file with the 
help of the manual.  The syntax for .hdb entries is straightforward.

Dear experts,

I am trying to exclude all nonbonded interaction on hexane molecule.


1-For the md -rerun command I do not know how to get the input XTC file. 
the program is expecting rerun.xtc


mdrun -rerun -*x breakdown.xtc* -s Hexane-Stack125_md.tpr *-o 
ORIGINAL-Trajectory-NOexcl.tpr* -c Hexane-Stack125_after_md -v  
output.mdrun_m




As I think I have said several times, you have to do this in several steps. 
First, run a simulation using normal exclusions that you believe to be valid by 
evaluating the properties of the system.  If you set nstxtcout  0 in your .mdp 
file, you will get a .xtc trajectory file (.xtc output is off by default - you 
must specify that you want it).  After you have done this, use mdrun -rerun on 
this trajectory and whatever modified topology you have created.


More specifically:

1. mdrun -deffnm md_no_excl
2. grompp to create new .tpr file with special exclusions
3. mdrun -rerun md_no_excl.xtc -s md_with_new_excl.tpr

Thus, new energies will be calculated from a sensible trajectory.

2-Can you please check exclsusions directive in top file. I have used 
also nrexcl 5 in molecule top. does this make sense given that I have 
defined all the possible exclusions in 19 lines.




Much of what you have defined is redundant.  If you have nrexcl = 5 that means 
nonbonded interactions between atoms up to 5 bonds away are excluded already, so 
lines like 19 20 are unnecessary.

All of the information I deleted is unnecessary.  I appreciate that you are 
trying to be thorough, but long emails with excess detail dilute the information 
that is really needed.

...why all the redundancy?  Much of what you have here is already encompassed by 
the value of nrexcl.  Actually, if you set nrexcl = 7, you don't have to create 
an [exclusions] section at all!  There are no atoms more than 7 bonds away from 
each other in hexane, right?
