Re: [gmx-users] transmembrane protein simulation

2011-01-24 Thread Krzysztof Mlynarczyk
Hi,

Yes, g_membed is the right tool for you. Please read the paper Wolf et al, J
Comp Chem, 31 (2010) 2169-2174. You will find a detailed description of the
insertion method and a quick manual. It will save you a lot of headache.

 Dear all

 I am trying to run simulation of transmembrane protein, i am looking
 for better ways to setup protein with lipid membrane. initially i used VMD
 to insert protein with lipid membrane but it did not come out well, i got
 errors while running position restraint.  i read about g_membed tool in
 gromacs, is it helpful for setting up transmembrane proteins also?  Is there
 any other better ways to insert protein perfectly into the membrane?  Please
 help me to overcome this problem.



 Thanks and regards

You should choose a force field based on the likelihood of being able to 
successfully make your observations. You want one that has a record of 
useful performance on similar systems, for which you can develop 
reasonably reliable parameters readily, test them suitably, and run 
simulations smoothly. Don't presuppose the form of the solution.

[gmx-users] Re: Secondary structure loss in implicit solvent simulations

2011-01-24 Thread K. Singhal
Hi

1) I am using Amber03 forcefield.

2) In most cases Yes, but in others, implicit solvent simulations tend to crash 
almost immediately (after reporting segmentation fault).

3) It generally takes less than a couple of 100 ps for the loss of the 
secondary structure. A few times, I even received .gro files at the end with 
all values as nan.

Earlier I thought it might be a problem with equilibration, but I have tried to 
run energy-minimization more than once followed by position-restrained runs as 
well (to equilibrate H-atoms). But the end result hasn't changed. 

Thanks  Regards
Kush

A few questions:

1) What force field are you using?
2) do you get the same answers with and without GPU acceleration?
3) How long does it take for secondary structure to disappear?  100's

Points 2 and 3 indicate that whatever simulations you're trying to perform are 
simply unstable.  If they don't crash immediately, they're giving meaningless 
output, right?


Earlier I thought it might be a problem with equilibration, but I have 
tried to run energy-minimization more than once followed by

Do you get the same effects if you run a normal simulation on CPU and not GPU? 
 That information would be critical for properly diagnosing what's going on. 
If it's not GPU-specific, in all likelihood whatever you're doing is incorrect 
somewhere along the way.

You certainly do have these parameters.  43A1 is part of the Gromacs 
installation; in the .rtp file you'll find all of the functional groups that 
were derived in 43A1, as applied to amino acids and a few other groups.



Please let me have if you have it.
Can I use some Ab Initio software for determining partial charges of my

for example ABINIT or Gaussian!



My paper that you said you read has discussion and recommendations on this 
point.  But be very clear: none of the QM methods we tested were able to 
reproduce the charges that are assigned to known functional groups since the 
Gromos parameterization methodology calls for empirical refinement.  Thus, 
manual modification and thorough validation are always necessary.

You've broken the format of the .rtp file used in ffG53a6. Use the 
diff tool to compare the before and after versions. Be sure you 
are using unix-style line endings.

Per the tutorial, step 2: Non-bonded interactions involving atom type HW are 
also present; since these are all zero you can delete these lines as well, or 
otherwise rename HW as H to be consistent with the GROMOS96 53a6 naming convention.



the topology file of the DPPC contains:
--
;   This is your topology file

; Include water topology
;include spc.itp

You're going to have problems here, as well.  You've commented out the water and 
ion topologies.  The next fatal error is surely going to be Moleculetype SOL 
not defined or the like.

Functional group names are not in the .rtp files.  You locate applicable 
functional groups by knowing the residues in which they occur.



please let me know how can I know the correct name f or functional groups
for example:HYDROXYL,CARBOXYL,HALO,AMINO and ...



All of these except halogens exist in common amino acids.  If you have many 
non-standard groups (i.e. those that don't typically occur in biomolecules), 
then perhaps your choice of force field was a poor one.  As Mark said, don't 
presuppose the solution.

Dear  Dr.justin
Actually by doing this  we are using two different force fields

I had done it before and the result was that I discussed before
in gmx-users(LINCS Error,Exploding system,Bad contacts between
atoms)
Then,this approch seems to doesn't work about my system.

Then I  want to find charges and charge groups for gromos 43A1
and replace them for my drug(to edit PRODRG file manually) and
work totally in gromos 43A1.


Please keep your story consistent.  In the last message, you said
you wanted to work completely within 53A6, so I advised you on how
to do that, now you say that you're trying to work completely within
43A1.


Unfortunately I can't obtain these parameter.


You certainly do have these parameters.  43A1 is part of the Gromacs
installation; in the .rtp file you'll find all of the functional
groups that were derived in 43A1, as applied to amino acids and a
few other groups.


Please let me have if you have it.
Can I use some Ab Initio software for determining partial
charges of my drug?
for example ABINIT or Gaussian!


My paper that you said you read has discussion and recommendations
on this point.  But be very clear: none of the QM methods we tested
were able to reproduce the charges that are assigned to known
functional groups since the Gromos parameterization methodology
calls for empirical refinement.  Thus, manual modification and
thorough validation are always necessary.

   That sounds like a reasonable approach.  Be sure to validate the

good, but
   you always have to convince reviewers...

  are charges of functional groups and generally

  Because you have modified charges of your molecules by
   Gromos96

   43A1.
  I want to know can I replace charges from gromos

  Charges are not the same between force fields.  We did
our study
  with 43A1 since that is what PRODRG purports to
produce.  I would
  say that our recommendations carry to other Gromos force
   fields, as
  well, but don't take charges from 43A1

The error suggests you are out of disk space.  Is this the case?  Otherwise, I'd 
suggest upgrading your Gromacs version.  Dozens of bugs have been fixed.

[gmx-users] amber96 RB dihedrals in GMX 4.0 and 4.5

2011-01-24 Thread Badi' Abdul-Wahid
Hello


Context:
I have prepared the same system (WW domain) with GMX 4.0.7 and
4.5.3 using amber96. Doing a gmxdump on the tpr files seems to
show that the RB dihedrals are absent from the 4.5-prepared
system, but present in the 4.0-prepared one. I used the same mdp
files for both GMX versions.

 gmxdump -s system.tpr | grep RBDI

Looking at the [dihedrals] directive in the topology file: 4.0
has funct 1 (proper dihedrals) and funct 3 (RB dihedrals) while
4.5 has funct 4 (improper) and funct 9 (proper) (pages 108 and
124 for the 4.0 and 4.5 respectively).

The 4.5 manual (page 129 under the [dihedrals] directive
description) seems to imply that the RB dihedrals need to be
added by hand and the 1-4 interaction in [pairs] should be
removed for the atoms involved in the RB dihedrals.
Is this correct?


Question:
What is the best way to prepare a system with Ryckaert-Bellemans dihedrals
in GMX 4.5?



Thanks for your time.

Re: [gmx-users] Re: Secondary structure loss in implicit solvent simulations

2011-01-24 Thread Michael Shirts
 Do you get the same effects if you run a normal simulation on CPU and not
 GPU?  That information would be critical for properly diagnosing what's
 going on. If it's not GPU-specific, in all likelihood whatever you're doing
 is incorrect somewhere along the way.

Folllowing up on this -- if it's not the same trajectory as the CPU to
within single precision, then something is wrong.

So the energies should be the same to 5 digits for the first time
steps, and then gradually drift away. If it's not the same for the
first 5-10 steps, then there is something going wrong with the GPU
code or the setup for the GPU code.

[gmx-users] GPU gets faster with more molecules in system

2011-01-24 Thread Christian Mötzing
Hi,

I compiled mdrun-gpu and tried some waterbox systems with different
atoms counts.

atoms  | GPU| CPU
2.400  | 1.015s | 774s
4.800  | 1.225s | 1.202s
9.600  | 1.142s | 1.353s
19.200 | 2.984s | 2.812s

Why does the system with 9.600 atoms finish faster than the one with
4.800? I tripple checked the simualtions and even GROMACs tells me that
the atom count in the system is like above. So I think no mistaken
there. A diff of md.log only shows differences in output values for each
step.

Is there any explanation for this behaviour?

Christian

As a guess, the cost of overheads for molecular simulations tend to have 
a weaker dependence on system size than the cost of computation (or none 
at all). Only once the latter dominate the cost do you see scaling with 
system size.


I expect you'd see similar behaviour running systems with 64, 128, 256, 
512 atoms on 64 processors.

Re: [gmx-users] amber96 RB dihedrals in GMX 4.0 and 4.5

2011-01-24 Thread Mark Abraham

On 25/01/2011 4:53 AM, Badi' Abdul-Wahid wrote:

Hello


Context:
I have prepared the same system (WW domain) with GMX 4.0.7 and
4.5.3 using amber96. Doing a gmxdump on the tpr files seems to
show that the RB dihedrals are absent from the 4.5-prepared
system, but present in the 4.0-prepared one. I used the same mdp
files for both GMX versions.

 gmxdump -s system.tpr | grep RBDI

Looking at the [dihedrals] directive in the topology file: 4.0
has funct 1 (proper dihedrals) and funct 3 (RB dihedrals) while
4.5 has funct 4 (improper) and funct 9 (proper) (pages 108 and
124 for the 4.0 and 4.5 respectively).


Building AMBER topologies requires that the residue database have the 
ability to add up multiple instances of type 1 dihedrals, which is an 
ability that was lacking in 4.0. Type 9 was introduced in 4.5 to deal 
with this and similar situations. Under some circumstances, multiple 
type 1 dihedrals can be combined into an R-B dihedral, and this was the 
work-around in 4.0. Function type 9 avoids this need. You should find 
that each produces the same energy in a zero-step MD. I would have 
expected the improper dihedral treatment in each GROMACS version to be 
the same.




The 4.5 manual (page 129 under the [dihedrals] directive
description) seems to imply that the RB dihedrals need to be
added by hand and the 1-4 interaction in [pairs] should be
removed for the atoms involved in the RB dihedrals.
Is this correct?


I think not. This is force-field- and system-specific. See 4.2.12.




Question:
What is the best way to prepare a system with Ryckaert-Bellemans 
dihedrals in GMX 4.5?


I think you should have no need to use them with amber96.

[gmx-users] mdrun_mpi executable not found

2011-01-24 Thread Justin Kat
Dear gmx users,


I have installed the parallel version 4.0.7 of gromacs on one of the nodes
of my cluster. Here is the steps I've done through root:


first, the normal installation:

./configure

make

make install

make links



then issued commands below for the mpi build:

./configure --enable-mpi

make mdrun

make install-mdrun

make links


I dont see any errors and everything seems to install fine.

I then switch to a normal user to do my work and then after issuing
the grompp_md command as usual, I entered the command below:


mpirun -np 8 mdrun_mpi -s *.tpr -o *.tpr -c *_after_md -v  output.mdrun_md

however, output.mdrun_md gives:

mpirun was unable to launch the specified application as it could not
find an executable:


Executable: mdrun_mpi
Node: node3.reyclus.loc


while attempting to start process rank 0.


Was the installation procedure incorrect? Or do I need to go through a
separate installation for the mdrun_mpi executable? Please guide me on what
is wrong.

Thanks,
Justin

No, the commands you gave should have built mdrun_mpi, as long as they finished

Re: [gmx-users] using Berger Lipids in gromacs 4.5.3

2011-01-24 Thread Justin A. Lemkul


The issue is in atomtypes.atp and is related to an open issue:

http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/618

Something is wrong with the way atomtypes.atp is handled, such that if any 
change is made to it, pdb2gmx either hangs or assigns the wrong atom types.


There is no need to modify the .atp file for the force field.  Deleting the 
lines you added (and the blank at the end of the file, which in and of itself 
causes a hang) fixes the problem.

I see it now.  When you configured with --enable-mpi, you didn't specify 
--program-suffix=_mpi, so the installation procedure over-wrote your existing 
(serial) mdrun with an MPI-enabled one simply called mdrun.  The configure 
output should have warned you about this.  You could, in theory, simply re-name 
your existing executable mdrun_mpi and then re-install a serial mdrun, if you 
need it.

/home/smberman/sourcecode/gromacs-4.5.3/src/kernel/openmm_wrapper.cpp, line: 
1259

Fatal error:
The requested platform CUDA could not be found.
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

I have the following in my .bash_profile:
export PATH=~/bin:~/usr/bin:~/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/cuda/bin:$PATH:.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/openmm/lib:/usr/local/cuda/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

I have run the available tests that came with the OpenMM library, and the CUDA 
tests pass.

Could someone please explain what this error means and the appropriate way to 
remedy it?  Thank you!!

Best,
