 Dear Dr. Roland Schulz,



 Thank you very much for your attention. I would like to have a copy of
 patch that generates gromacs topology from psf file. And could you please
 explain how to use this patch in detail ? Because I have no information on
 Pär's scripts.

 Do you have standard CHARMM or Amber FF? Than you don't need to convert the
 FF because it is already part of GROMACS.



 I think, In order to continue a NAMD simulation in Gromacs I should first
 save the last coordinates (.coor file in namd ) as a pdb file and convert it
 into gro file . But there are many ways to get a gro file

 no you don't need to convert the coordinate file or get the last frame.



 - using pdb2gmx ( but I should choose the force field in gromacs. This may
 be a problem. ) By the way, I changed CHARMM force field and use Amber type
 force field in NAMD.

 Don't understand what you mean? Do you use CHARMM or Amber FF? If it is a
 standard molecule (e.g. protein), it will be much easier to just use pdb2gmx
 to generate the topology.


 Could you share your ideas about this process ? What should I do ?

 You would just do everything the same way as setting up a new simulation
 and use the last frame as starting structure. Make sure you use a structure
 which includes both coordinates and velocities.

   Is there a way to get a tpr file from NAMD files?

 No. Not automatically. You need to get all the input files (grompp.mdp,
 topol.top, conf.gro) and then run grompp to generate your tpr.

[gmx-users] the density of liquid benzene is too large

2010-10-01 Thread Cenfeng Fu
Hello all,
 I am simulating liquid benzene. Initially, I generate a cubic box with 600
benzene molecules in it. The length of the box is 4.6 nm. Then I do the
energy minimization and a NPT simulation for 20 ns. The force field I used
for benzene is OPLSAA (JACS,1990,112,4768). And here is my .mdp file for the
NPT simulation.

[gmx-users] xpm file

2010-10-01 Thread Carla Jamous
Hi everyone,

Please I need some help visualizing an .xpm file.
I tried to open my .xpm file (g_hbond matrix) with Gimp but It gives me red
lines that I don't understand.
So I converted my .xpm file into an .eps file with xpm2ps. When I try to
open my .eps file, I get the legend:
Hydrogen bonds
white=none
red=Present

And the legend of my axis: x axis=time(ps)
  y axis=Hydrogen Bond index

But I can't see the values: It means I see that there is an axis but it's a
black bold line instead of values of time or number of atoms in hydrogen
bonds.

Please how can I visualize correctly my matrix?

Thank you

Carla

Did you make all the appropriate changes to the .rtp and .hdb files, as 
instructed in the link above?  Right now, pdb2gmx thinks your residues are named 
EtOH (ethanol), so either your coordinate file is named wrong or you haven't 
added the necessary information to the database.

You're not going to get any numbers in this plot (aside from hydrogen bond 
indices).  The matrix you're trying to plot is an existence matrix, a red pixel 
if the hydrogen bond is present, a white one if none is present.  You can map 
which hydrogen bond is which from the hbond.ndx file.  That is, once you get it 
rendered properly (see below).



Please how can I visualize correctly my matrix?



You can alter its properties (proportions, x/y spacing) with a .m2p file.  There 
is an example in the online manual.  If the plot is simply a straight line, 
you'll probably want to decrease the x-spacing and increase the y-spacing to 
make it look normal.

Why the density is so large ? Could anyone give me some suggestions?



Several possible reasons:

1. The force field parameters aren't perfect, so there is some inherent 
disagreement between simulation and reality.  What is the expected value for 
this force field?


2. You're using the isothermal compressibility for water.  If your system is 
pure liquid benzene, I'd think you would want to use the compressibility for 
benzene.  I don't know how big the difference would be off-hand, but at least 
you'd be convinced that your simulation was set up properly.


3. Although it won't matter a huge amount, to what temperature does the 
experimental density correspond?  Usually these parameters are given at 25C (298 
K).  The temperature you've used is 300 K.  Again, a minor point, but one worth 
doing correctly in a simulation even though the such a change would not account 
for the magnitude of difference you're currently seeing.

[gmx-users] charmm c36 lipids

2010-10-01 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hello Sven, Drew and gmx-users,

I've gotten requests from users that want to use the c36 CHARMM lipids in 
GROMACS (see below). So I answer both of you and the rest of the community in 
this e-mail. 

I have a script that parses the top and par files of CHARMM force field(s). 
It's not the most general piece of code there is so it will not be able to 
convert files that do not follow the format the CHARMM top and par files had 
when I wrote it (version c32b1). Also, it cannot parse the toppar files (i.e. 
what's called the toppar stream files in CHARMM). I downloaded the force field 
from:
http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/download.php?filename=CHARMM_ff_params_files/toppar_lipid_all36.tgz

My script is able to parse the top_lipid_all36.rtf and par_all36_lipid.prm 
files without any errors and generate the corresponding GROMACS rtp, atp, 
bonded and nonbonded files. I'm not an CHARMM expert but if they haven't 
changed the force field considerable lately (by changing parameter definitions 
and functional forms of the force field for example) the files generated by the 
script should be the correct GROMACS translation. However, I cannot guarantee 
that all went well so I would suggest that those of you who are interested in 
this look through the files and convince yourself that the script did the job 
before running production runs with these parameters. 

I've put it on the old (and outdated) port homepage 
(http://www.dbb.su.se/User:Bjelkmar/Ffcharmm) so that those of you who are 
interested in this can access and test it. If nothing seems to be wrong after 
some of you have tested it I'm going to add it to the user contributions on 
gromacs.org.

Regards,
Pär Bjelkmar

1 okt 2010 kl. 09.53 skrev Sven Jakobtorweihen:

 Dear Pär Bjelkmar,
 
 thanks for implementing the CHARMM force field into GROMACS, that is really 
 useful. Recently the CHARMM developers have introduced an updated lipid force 
 field CHARMM36 for lipids, see Klauda et al. J. Phys. Chem. B, 2010, 114, 
 7830 (doi: 10.1021/jp101759q). It seems that this is an important improvement 
 over the preceding version. I checked gromacs version 4.5.1 and the 
 git-repository; unfortunately, the charmm36 lipids are not yet available in 
 gromacs. However, I could write some scripts to convert the charmm files to 
 gromacs files, I have the feeling the bonded parameter conversion is straight 
 forward (having the charmm27 files for gromacs), but I fear that transferring 
 the bonded parameters is tedious. So my question is: Do you have by any 
 change already gromacs files for charmm36 lipids? Or are scripts available to 
 convert charmm FF to gromacs FF files? I am aware of the charmm_to_gromacs 
 perl scripts on the gromacs website. But as fare as I know they are not 
 compatible with the official implementation of charmm in gromacs, or am I 
 wrong?
 
 Thanks for your help.
 
 Best regards,
 Sven

Re: [gmx-users] charmm c36 lipids

2010-10-01 Thread Thomas Piggot

Hi Par,

I have a working version of the CHARMM36 lipids that I converted myself, 
which I am fairly confident is correct. I shall check your parameters 
against my ones to confirm everything is the same and report back to the 
list. I don't see anything which would not work for your script as there 
are not any major changes to the forcefield in CHARMM36.


Cheers

Tom

Hello Sven, Drew and gmx-users,

I've gotten requests from users that want to use the c36 CHARMM lipids 
in GROMACS (see below). So I answer both of you and the rest of the 
community in this e-mail. 

I have a script that parses the top and par files of CHARMM force 
field(s). It's not the most general piece of code there is so it will 
not be able to convert files that do not follow the format the CHARMM 
top and par files had when I wrote it (version c32b1). Also, it cannot 
parse the toppar files (i.e. what's called the toppar stream files in 
CHARMM). I downloaded the force field from:

http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/download.php?filename=CHARMM_ff_params_files/toppar_lipid_all36.tgz

My script is able to parse the top_lipid_all36.rtf and 
par_all36_lipid.prm files without any errors and generate the 
corresponding GROMACS rtp, atp, bonded and nonbonded files. I'm not an 
CHARMM expert but if they haven't changed the force field considerable 
lately (by changing parameter definitions and functional forms of the 
force field for example) the files generated by the script should be the 
correct GROMACS translation. However, I cannot guarantee that all went 
well so I would suggest that those of you who are interested in this 
look through the files and convince yourself that the script did the job 
before running production runs with these parameters. 

I've put it on the old (and outdated) port homepage 
(http://www.dbb.su.se/User:Bjelkmar/Ffcharmm) so that those of you who 
are interested in this can access and test it. If nothing seems to be 
wrong after some of you have tested it I'm going to add it to the user 
contributions on gromacs.org http://gromacs.org.

Pär Bjelkmar

Dear Pär Bjelkmar,

thanks for implementing the CHARMM force field into GROMACS, that is 
really useful. Recently the CHARMM developers have introduced an 
updated lipid force field CHARMM36 for lipids, see Klauda et al. J. 
Phys. Chem. B, 2010, 114, 7830 (doi: 10.1021/jp101759q). It seems that 
this is an important improvement over the preceding version. I checked 
gromacs version 4.5.1 and the git-repository; unfortunately, the 
charmm36 lipids are not yet available in gromacs. However, I could 
write some scripts to convert the charmm files to gromacs files, I 
have the feeling the bonded parameter conversion is straight forward 
(having the charmm27 files for gromacs), but I fear that transferring 
the bonded parameters is tedious. So my question is: Do you have by 
any change already gromacs files for charmm36 lipids? Or are scripts 
available to convert charmm FF to gromacs FF files? I am aware of the 
charmm_to_gromacs perl scripts on the gromacs website. But as fare as 
I know they are not compatible with the official implementation of 
charmm in gromacs, or am I wrong?


Thanks for your help.

Best regards,
Sven

Re: [gmx-users] cholesterol

2010-10-01 Thread Thomas Piggot

I can think of a few cholesterol topologies just off the top of my head:

GROMOS43A1-S3 forcefield has an entry for cholesterol

There is a stream file for cholesterol available for use with the CHARMM 
forcefields.


There are other available too, you should use google to find them. I 
have never used any of them so would not like to comment on which to 
use, this is up to you to decide after a thorough read of the literature.

Re: [gmx-users] charmm c36 lipids

2010-10-01 Thread Thomas Piggot

Hi Par,

For a POPC bilayer then both your and my files produce the same tpr's 
(checked both with gmxcheck and gmxdump). This is pleasing as I not only 
scripted the conversions but did some parts by hand! I shall check the 
other lipids to make sure that there are no discrepancies in these.


Also for my files I have included the bonded and non-bonded parameters 
with parameters from CHARMM27 so as to allow simulations in water and 
with proteins. I want to re-check these before contributing the 
forcefield to the website, so it will probably be next week before I 
upload it. Just to let you know I will use your lipids.rtp as it has the 
atoms in separate charge groups so as to avoid having to use 
-nochargegrp with pdb2gmx, whilst mine doesn't. I hope this is fine with 
you.


Cheers

Tom

Hi Tom,

great do that! If there're no discrepancies and you have tested it we should 
probably put your version among the user contributions. Let me know how it goes!

/Pär


Hi Par,

I have a working version of the CHARMM36 lipids that I converted myself, 
which I am fairly confident is correct. I shall check your parameters 
against my ones to confirm everything is the same and report back to the 
list. I don't see anything which would not work for your script as there 
are not any major changes to the forcefield in CHARMM36.

  Do you get the error also with -dlb yes and theenvironmentvariableGMX_DLB_FLOP set to 1 or 2?

  




Thank you for your interest but I think I found the issue. I am using a cluster I built with many different computers. All have 3.04 GHz pentium 4 processors but the other components vary. I have since recompiled GROMACS 4.5.1 on each computer separately (albeit a tedious task but well worth it). Now I am running smooth and have become a preacher of this individual gromacs compiling.



Below is what occurred before the fix

The error would occur at random number of stems but never above 5000. It was very intermittent and I believe this to be the jobs node selection. If a job ran on one node it would work and on another it would not. I came to the conclusion above by running the jobs that failed on my workstation which of course had gromacs compiled on it rather than on another machine. I just hope that this post will save the next guy some heartache and precious time.



Thank you again,



TJ Mustard

Is there a argument that will select SOL as the defualt selection for ion substitution? I read the manual and found nothing.

[gmx-users] Is GROMACS right for 2-D Potential?

2010-10-01 Thread Mick Warehime
Dear all,

I want to simulate nitric oxide, with fixed bond length, in liquid
argon. I have the Ar-NO potential from ab initio quantum mechanical
calcullations as a function of Jacobi coordinates, r and theta, where r is
the vector locating the Ar from the center of mass of NO and theta is the
angle between the bond vector and the vector r. I have made fits to these
models which are V(r, theta)=(exponential terms(r) + V_Lennard
Jones(r))*Legendre Polynomial(theta). It is very easy to make a look up
table for this potential but it is a function of two coordinates, either r
and theta, or the r1 and r2 where r1 is the distance between the Ar and O
and r2 is the distance between the Ar and N.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for getting started on the force
field I should use to simulate this system or how to code a splined look up
table?

Thank you very much for your time,

- Mick Warehime

If I were you, I would uninstall this version (which is outdated by nearly 2 
years!) and get version 4.5.1.  Installing from source is quite easy.  Not only 
will you benefit from hundreds of bug fixes and enhancements, but running in 
parallel on a multi-core machine is no longer MPI-dependent, making it somewhat 
easier.

 Dear Roland,

 Eventually I installed the installation steps with
 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr as you said. can you send me the input
 file for test?
 I want to run a simulation. how can I do this?

 Thanks for your helps


 2010/10/2 Roland Schulz rol...@utk.edu

  Hi,

 either install as root by running:
 sudo make install

 or rerun the installation steps with
 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr
 to install it in your home directory.

 If I were you, I would uninstall this version (which is outdated by
 nearly 2 years!) and get version 4.5.1.  Installing from source is quite
 easy.  Not only will you benefit from hundreds of bug fixes and
 enhancements, but running in parallel on a multi-core machine is no longer
 MPI-dependent, making it somewhat easier.

 For usage and instructions, see the manual and any of the numerous
 tutorials linked here:

  Thanks a lot for any instruction.
