Hi,

Thanks.

I tried trjconv_g -fit translation -pbc nojump, ideally it should work.

but still not,

after I tried the minidist, I noticed the peak around 270ns,

I attached the figure, what's the possible reason for this distance?

 I used the initial mdrun .tpr. After checking the generated pdb (total
 51 frames), the first 28/29 frames both are together, but later are
 separated. (the intra_fit also not work as expected).

 So I think at beginning the reference initial ones are together.

 This .xtc were trjcat together, first 200ns and then extend to 500ns,
 the .pdb generated used dt 10ns.

 Cheers,
 Am I wrong in some places? Actually for other trajectories I had no
 problem (use the same way of handling it).

RE: [gmx-users] query on OPLS-2005

2011-10-28 Thread Cara Kreck




Hi Sanku

According to the Schrodinger Knowledge Base, this is the paper that should be 
referenced for OPLS-2005 instead:
Banks, J.L., H.S. Beard, Y. Cao, A.E. Cho, W. Damm, R. Farid, A.K. Felts,T.A. 
Halgren, D.T. Mainz, J.R. Maple, R. Murphy, D.M. Philipp, M.P. Repasky,L.Y. 
Zhang, B.J. Berne, R.A. Friesner, E. Gallicchio, and R.M. Levy. Integrated 
Modeling Program, Applied Chemical Theory (IMPACT). J. Comp. Chem., 26, 1752 
(2005)
(http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jcc.20292/full)

The Gromacs oplsaa.ff/forcefield.doc file says OPLS-AA/L all-atom force field 
(2001 aminoacid dihedrals)

OPLS-AA/L seems to presented in the above paper as their updated version, but 
it is sourced from the 2001 paper on proteins which is listed as a reference in 
the Gromacs oplsaa.ff/forcefield.itp file. The 2005 paper then adds  the 
following:
New force-field parameters were developed for OPLS_2003 for organic 
functional groups for which the OPLS_2001 force field does not provide 
specific parameters. Previously derived parameters for proteins, discussed 
above, were implemented without modification in OPLS_2003. (Where 2003 
apparently evolved into 2005).

So it looks like the protein section of both force-fields are the same, but if 
you want to use other parameters you should check them individually first to 
see whether or not they were changed or created since 2001.

Hi,  I wanted to check what is actually OPLS-2005 forcefield that is recently 
being referred often for md simulation. However, I also see that whenever, 
OPLS-2005 is being referred, it cites a 2001 paper by Jorgensen on OPLS 
forcefield. So, what is actually OPLS-2005?So, I wonder what version of OPLS 
forcefield is present in gromacs 4.5 series. Is it also so-called OPLS-2005

Hi Lina,

My previous reply was from before I looked at the graph. Have you
considered that the molecule might be taking a stroll and turn back,
or goes to another side of the protein? Have you looked at the
trajectory, in particular at the trajectory with the jumps removed?

[gmx-users] Parametrisation of the heteroatomic pdb

2011-10-28 Thread James Starlight
Dear Gromacs users!

I've forced with some problem of preparing topology of my input pdb via
pdb2gmx.

My input structure( gramicidin ion chanell) consist of some heteroatoms due
to the presence of the non standart aminoacids in sequence: FOR, DLE, DVA,
ETA ( this the R isomers instad of L analogs)


I've tried to parametriesed that structure via different force fields but in
all cases there are not suitable topologies for that aminoacids

e.g
Fatal error:
Residue 'FOR' not found in residue topology database

How I can solve that problem? I've tried to look for the suitable itp file
but could not find it too :(

In the former way, the time since 280ns till the end,  the small

[gmx-users] umbrella sampling

2011-10-28 Thread Vijayaraj
Hello,

I am doing umbrella sampling to calculate PMF curve for the detachment of a
terminal cyclic peptide with 8 aa's (CP) from the self-assembled cyclic
peptide nanotube. I extracted the reaction coordinates staring from 5.5 ang
COM distance between the terminal CP and the 2nd CP to 17.5 ang, I did
umbrella sampling on 25 configurations (for 5ns) and the window size is 0.5
ang. I used the following pulling code for umbrella sampling,

pull= umbrella
pull_geometry   = distance
pull_dim= N N Y
pull_start  = yes
pull_ngroups= 1
pull_group0 = Chain_B
pull_group1 = Chain_A
pull_init1  = 0
pull_rate1  = 0.0
pull_k1 = 1000
pull_nstxout= 1000
pull_nstfout= 1000


I restrained the 2nd CP unit and the pull_rate1 is 0, so the COM distance
between the chain_A (terminal) and chain_B (2nd CP) should be restrained.
after 5ns of umbrella sampling, I calculated the COM distance between chain
A and B, but it was not restrained, for the 5.5 ang COM distance restrain,
the COM distance varies from 4.5 to 5.5 ang. and also the pulling cyclic
peptide undergoes large conformational sampling. from the WHAM analysis I
understood the sampling window is poorly represented. In addition to COM
distance restrain, can I restrain the pulling CP's backbone atoms? so that
the pulling groups large conformational sampling will be reduced.
I am using gromacs 4.5.5 version.
Regards,
Vijay.

You could implement dihedral restraints to fix the backbone secondary structure, 
but I can't comment on the stability of trying to use these restraints in 
addition to the pull code.  Seems like a lot going on at once, to me.


Also consider the fact that 5 ns is an extremely short timeframe to gather 
meaningful data.  Perhaps you just need more time in each window to equilibrate. 
 At the shortest COM distance, your two molecules are still likely experiencing 
some interactions, and it may require a great deal of sampling in this window to 
converge the simulations.  You haven't shown the rest of your .mdp file (always 
a good idea!), so we can only guess at whether or not your other settings should 
lead to a sensible result.

[gmx-users] Hbonds - Res - Ligand

2011-10-28 Thread Steven Neumann
Dear Gmx Users,

I have compared average number of hbonds per time frame between my ligand
and protein:

1) Using trajectory obtained straight after simulations:

g_hbond -f md2.trr -s md2.tpr -n SystemGRP.ndx -num 91withLigandsHbond.xvg

Avergage number of hbonds: 0.146

2) Using trajectory modified by trjconv according to the PBC workflow on
www.gromcacs.org :

g_hbond -f md2final2.xtc -s md2.tpr -n SystemGRP.ndx -num
91withLigandsHbond.xvg

Avergage number of hbonds: 0.156

Does anyone know why this value changed and I obtained slightly different
results?

Thank you,

Steven

  I restrained the 2nd CP unit and the pull_rate1 is 0, so the COM

  restrained. after 5ns of umbrella sampling, I calculated the COM
  distance between chain A and B, but it was not restrained, for the 5.5
  ang COM distance restrain, the COM distance varies from 4.5 to 5.5 ang.
  and also the pulling cyclic peptide undergoes large conformational
  sampling. from the WHAM analysis I understood the sampling window is
  poorly represented. In addition to COM distance restrain, can I restrain
  the pulling CP's backbone atoms? so that the pulling groups large
  conformational sampling will be reduced.

 You could implement dihedral restraints to fix the backbone secondary
 structure,
 but I can't comment on the stability of trying to use these restraints in
 addition to the pull code.  Seems like a lot going on at once, to me.

 Also consider the fact that 5 ns is an extremely short timeframe to gather
 meaningful data.  Perhaps you just need more time in each window to
 equilibrate.
  At the shortest COM distance, your two molecules are still likely
 experiencing
 some interactions, and it may require a great deal of sampling in this

2011-10-28 Thread Steven Neumann
With other residues is the same... and changes are bigger. Which trajectory
in this case is reliable?

My wsteps in trjconv involves:


1.  First make your molecules whole if you want them whole (system).



3.  Extract the first frame from the trajectory as reference for
removing jumps if you want to remove jumps.



4.  Remove jumps if you want to have them removed using the first frame



5.  Center your system using some criterion. Doing so shifts the system,
so don't use trjconv -pbc nojump after this step.



6.  Put everything in some box.



7.  Fit if desired and don't use any PBC related option afterwards.

Re: [gmx-users] trjconv and -pbc

2011-10-28 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Lina,

You first remove the jumps from the trajectory. Then you can view that
trajectory with ngmx or with VMD. You can also then extract the frames
around the 'jump' and look at them. But if the molecule goes unstuck
and then crosses the boundary to get stuck to the protein again, it
would give exactly that result: Visually, the molecule seems close,
goes away and apparently gets stuck somewhere floating nowhere. But
the minimal distance to the protein would be really minimal then go
through a maximum and go to the minimal level again.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

 or goes to another side of the protein? Have you looked at the

 I extracted the parts from 280ns to 300ns, the presentation of that
 part protein is not whole.

 In the former way, the time since 280ns till the end,  the small

 I am not sure how to get the trajectory and view? (ngmx? )

 Hi Lina,

 Don't combine fitting, centering and pbc options. It may not work as
 expected. That's why the workflow is given. Use separate passes. By the way,
 first centering on the protein followed by putting molecules in the box
 should also work.

[gmx-users] umbrella sampling

2011-10-28 Thread chris . neale
You need to evaluate convergence yourself for any simulation. I  
suggest doing the whole thing twice (or more) with different starting  
conformations. Also, look at the PMF from block averaging (generate  
one PMF from the 0-2 ns data, another from the 2-4 ns data, and so on)  
and see if there is a systematic drift with time.


In my opinion, if you really want to converge to within 5 kcal/mol  
without using additional restraints as Justin mentioned, then you  
should be expecting to do 100 ns per umbrella, and probably 1000  
ns per umbrella. -- Thus additional restraints are a very good idea.  
To see about using additional restraints, check out this paper: THE  
JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS 125, 084902 (2006) and this one: Journal  
of Chemical Theory and Computation 3(4):1231-1235 (2007). They are not  
US, but the idea is the same.

You have to build capping groups onto the termini.  See, for instance the [ACE]

For new protein residues, you do not need an .itp file, you need a

 in this case is reliable?

 My wsteps in trjconv involves:


 1.  First make your molecules whole if you want them whole (system).



 3.  Extract the first frame from the trajectory as reference for
 removing jumps if you want to remove jumps.



 4.  Remove jumps if you want to have them removed using the first
 frame



 5.  Center your system using some criterion. Doing so shifts the
 system, so don't use trjconv -pbc nojump after this step.



 6.  Put everything in some box.



 7.  Fit if desired and don't use any PBC related option afterwards.

 Dear Gmx Users,

 I have compared average number of hbonds per time frame between my ligand

 1) Using trajectory obtained straight after simulations:

 g_hbond -f md2.trr -s md2.tpr -n SystemGRP.ndx -num 91withLigandsHbond.xvg

 Avergage number of hbonds: 0.146

 2) Using trajectory modified by trjconv according to the PBC workflow on

 Avergage number of hbonds: 0.156

 Does anyone know why this value changed and I obtained slightly different

 Thank you,

[gmx-users] extending umbrella sampling runs

2011-10-28 Thread Poojari, Chetan

Hi,

I want to extend the umbrella sampling runs and have used the below commands:


 1) grompp -f md_umbrella.mdp -c npt0.gro -t npt0.cpt -p topol.top -n index.ndx 
-o umbrella0.tpr


2) mdrun -s umbrella0.tpr -pf pullf-umbrella0.xvg -px pullx-umbrella0.xvg -cpo 
0.cpt -c 0.gro -x 0.xtc -g 0.log -e 0.edr


#extending the runs:


3)  tpbconv -s umbrella0.tpr -extend 15000 -o umbrella_20ns_0.tpr


4) mdrun -s umbrella_20ns_0.tpr -cpi 0.cpt -pf pullf-umbrella0.xvg -px 
pullx-umbrella0.xvg -cpo 0_20.cpt -c 0.gro -x 0.xtc -g 0.log -e 0.edr


When i run the above mdrun command (4) I get the below error message. As I use  
.xtc file for analysis, I have not written separate .trr output files for each 
window. By default it writes single traj.trr file for all my windows.

I removed the traj.trr file and carried out the mdrun step and i stil get the 
error message with traj.trr.

Please can i Know how do I get about extending this run.


Error message:

[gmx-users] file.itp for separated molecules

2011-10-28 Thread Fahimeh Baftizadeh
Hello

 I have to question.
 1- I am generating a gro and toplogy file from a pdb file, usign pdb2gmx.
 the pdb file contains 18 separate chains, in each chain, there are 6
 residues.
 When I generate the topology and coordinates, it creates 18
 posres-protein$i.itp file and 18 topol-protein$i.itp file and then one
 topol.top and one conf.gro ...

 is it normal?
 i think it is just the position restraint for separate chains ... in this
 way i think it enables me to restraint them separately if i want? right?

 2- using topol.top and conf.gro, after solvating the molecule in the box
 of water ... with editconf and genbox ... I am trying to generate a tpr
 file, but when it generate it writes the following:

 Generated 2211 of the 2211 non-bonded parameter combinations

 You have to build capping groups onto the termini.  See, for instance the
 [ACE] and [NME] groups in the .rtp file.

Hi Sanku

According to the Schrodinger Knowledge Base, this is the paper that should be 
referenced for OPLS-2005 instead:
Banks, J.L., H.S. Beard, Y. Cao, A.E. Cho, W. Damm, R. Farid, A.K. Felts,T.A. 
Halgren, D.T. Mainz, J.R. Maple, R. Murphy, D.M. Philipp, M.P. Repasky,L.Y.

Modeling Program, Applied Chemical Theory (IMPACT). J. Comp. Chem., 26, 1752 
(2005)
(http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jcc.20292/full)

The Gromacs oplsaa.ff/forcefield.doc file says OPLS-AA/L all-atom force field 
(2001 aminoacid dihedrals)

OPLS-AA/L seems to presented in the above paper as their updated version, but 
it is sourced from the 2001 paper on proteins which is listed as a reference in 
the Gromacs oplsaa.ff/forcefield.itp file. The 2005 paper then adds  the 
following:
New force-field parameters were developed for OPLS_2003 for organic 
functional groups for which the OPLS_2001 force field does not provide 
specific parameters. Previously derived parameters for proteins, discussed 
above, were implemented without modification in OPLS_2003. (Where 2003 
apparently evolved into 2005).

So it looks like the protein section of both force-fields are the same, but if 
you want to use other parameters you should check them individually first to 
see whether or not they were changed or created since 2001.

Hi,
  I wanted to check what is actually OPLS-2005 forcefield that is recently 
being referred often for md simulation. However, I also see that whenever, 
OPLS-2005 is being referred, it cites a 2001 paper by Jorgensen on OPLS 
forcefield. So, what is actually OPLS-2005?
So, I wonder what version of OPLS forcefield is present in gromacs 4.5 series. 
Is it also so-called OPLS-2005 forcefield?

[gmx-users] lost ngmx

2011-10-28 Thread Victor

Hello gmx-users

I have  compiled gromacs on Debian/Linux wiht the option --with-x but 
the ngmx binary has not been generated. I don´t have gnome or kde 
installed, but I have installed xserver-xorg and I can export VMD with ssh.
Do I need to install gnome or kde? if the answer is yes, Do I need to 
compile gromacs again? or Is there a way to just compile ngmx?


Thanks in advance

pdb2gmx does not build things that aren't there.  Your input coordinate file

So As I understood the aminoacids.rtp of current force field must include

But for example If I have only topology on such groups for another ff could

Yes.  Any residue whatsoever that you wish to process with pdb2gmx must be 
present in an .rtp file.


But for example If I have only topology on such groups for another ff 
could I include it to the amber FF? If no where I could find such topology ?




Do not mix and match force fields.  Even if you can hack it into working, the 
results will be absolute garbage.  If you need a topology for a specific force 
field, refer to the parameterization link I posted before.  Deriving parameters 
for new residues in an existing force field is a task that may take weeks or 
months to do properly and hence is considered an expert topic.  I have nothing 
more to contribute on that issue.  The archives are filled with tips and 
discussions on how to go about such things.

I've tried by -ter but pdb2gmx didnt ask me for the addition of
the CAPS. May be Amber ff didnt support this feature ?


pdb2gmx does not build things that aren't there.  Your input
coordinate file needs to have the capping groups present, with all
atoms named as the .rtp entries expect them, hence the suggestion to
investigate the [ACE] and [NME] directives.

   You have to build capping groups onto the termini.  See, for
   instance the [ACE] and [NME] groups in the .rtp file.

[gmx-users] pdb2gmx problem with ACE N-cap

2011-10-28 Thread Sanku M
Hi,
  I have a protein pdb file with ACE as N-cap and I am trying to use pdb2gmx ( 
within gromacs 4.5.4 ) to generate a topology file using opls/AA . the ACE is 
present in opls aminoacids.rtp files. But, on issuing the pdb2gmx command, I 
get following error message:

Program pdb2gmx_44, VERSION 4.5.4
Source code file: pdb2top.c, line: 1070

Fatal error:
atom N not found in buiding block 1ACE while combining tdb and rtp
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

I wonder how I can make sure that ACE can be used as N-terminus.

You've somehow constructed the cap wrong.  There is no N atom in ACE.  Check the 
.rtp for what's required, check your coordinate file, and make sure you're using 
-ter none with pdb2gmx.  If that's still not working, post your command and 
relevant snippet of your coordinate file.


-Justin

[gmx-users] How to change moment of inertia of a molecule

2011-10-28 Thread Rini Gupta
Dear Gromacs Users,

I want to run a calculation using Gromacs for some mixed/water solutions by
changing moment of inertia of molecules.
Can anyone please tell me is there any one of changing the actual moment of
inertia of a molecule e.g. water

Any comments will be really appreciated.


Thanks and Regards,

You will need to change the mass of the atom(s) and that requires 
creating a new atom type with the mass you want, and a new molecule type 
for each such modified molecule that refers to the new atom type.

Re: [gmx-users] lost ngmx

Hello gmx-users

I have  compiled gromacs on Debian/Linux wiht the option --with-x but 
the ngmx binary has not been generated. I don´t have gnome or kde 
installed, but I have installed xserver-xorg and I can export VMD with 
ssh.


You probably need more than the Xorg executables to compile ngmx, but I 
can't suggest what other than both X libraries and header files (e.g. 
devel packages).


Do I need to install gnome or kde? 


No.

if the answer is yes, Do I need to compile gromacs again? or Is there 
a way to just compile ngmx?


No.
