When it becomes clear that the free energy of solvation itself is not a quantity 
to which you can compare, you need something else.  One such option that we have 
used in the past is comparing logP values (see our paper at 
http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/bi1000855).  For a drug molecule, finding a 
logP value should be trivial ;)

[gmx-users] Intel composer vs. Intel Studio

2011-12-27 Thread Sudip Roy

Gromacs users,

Please let me know what is the best option for gromacs compilation
(looking for better performance in INFINIBAND QDR systems)

1. Intel composer XE i.e. Intel compilers, mkl  but open MPI library

2.  Intel studio i.e. Intel compilers, mkl, and Intel MPI library


If there are any better options please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

new year greeting

[gmx-users] exploding system

2011-12-27 Thread lina

Hi,


I met a very untamed simulation system.

when I tried to run a short MD, it's collapsed with LINCS Warnings, It's 
under 317K


so I used energy minimizations after NVT, and run another NVT_2 again. 
(In vacuum, no NPT being applied here).


after that NVT_2, mainly increased the steps, run MD, it's collapsed 
again after 500ps,


so I used the energy minimization from that nvt_2.gro several times, and 
it's collapsed during energy minimizations.


Might I used wrong way of handling it. I tried 300K, which can run a bit 
further without collapse.


Thanks for any suggestions you may give.

Do I need to work hard on the energy minimization or?

Best regards,

GROMACS is strongly CPU-bound in a way that is rather insensitive to 
compilers and libraries. I would expect no strong difference between the 
above two - and icc+MKL+OpenMPI was only a few percent faster than 
gcc+FFTW+OpenMPI when I tested them on such a machine about two years ago.

 Hi all,

 I try to reproduce the results from g_angle using my own c++ code. Using
 the formula

 θ=acos(r_ij * r_kj/|r_ij||r_kj|)

 with the acos from the cmath library, I obtain an angle which is always
 ~5% larger when the angel calculated by g_angle.
 Does g_angle use the same formula or does it calculate θ in a different way?

The angles are calculated through src/gmxlib/bondfree.c::bond_angle()
which does (after taking care of PBC):

  *costh=cos_angle(r_ij,r_kj);
  th=acos(*costh);

cos_angle() is defined in include/vec.h to do  r_ij *
r_kj/|r_ij||r_kj|; acos() comes from the math lib, it's not a GROMACS
function. So it's essentially what you seem to do. I guess
approximations and precision loss might play a role, f.e. cos_angle()
uses GROMACS' own gmx_invsqrt() - do you use math lib sqrt() to
calculate the vector norm ? You could try cut-and-pasting the few
pieces of code making up the GROMACS implementation of these functions
- they are well contained in include/vec.h.

Bogdan

Your SA protocol sounds like a recipe for problems. See 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Steps_to_Perform_a_Simulation


The usual process for generating a box of mixed solvents is here 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Mixed_Solvents but your 
cosolvent may be too large for the genbox -ci replacement procedure. 
Then, you may need to use the ideas here 
(http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Non-Water_Solvation) to 
make a suitably dilute TMAO solution that can then be solvated with 
water with genbox -cs. Either way, lengthy equilibration will be in order.

Re: [gmx-users] trjconv and g_clustsize

2011-12-27 Thread mohammad agha
Thank you very much from your reply.

I found out that my problem is at step c (-pbc nojump) because I exercised 
ngmx after steps a and b by:
ngmx -f cluster.gro -s cluster.tpr 

and I viewed 2 micelles the same of result of md.trr (or md.xtc).
I studied 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Periodic_Boundary_Conditions 
according to your advice and I think that I should Extract the first frame from 
the trajectory as reference for removing jumps and then Remove jumps according 
step c, but I have a problem about this!
May I ask you to check my steps, please?

1- trjconv -f md.xtc -s md.tpr -o cluster.gro -e 60 -pbc cluster (and I 
selected 2 surfactants for clustering group and 0 system for outpup group)

2- grompp -f md.mdp -c cluster.gro -o cluster.tpr -n index.ndx 
Then I did: ngmx -f cluster.gro -s cluster.tpr and I viewed 2 micelles.

3- trjconv -f cluster.gro -s cluster.tpr -dump 0 -o clusterdump.gro (and I 
selected 0 system for output group)

4- grompp -f md.mdp -c clusterdump.gro -o cluster1.tpr -n index.ndx 

5- trjconv -f cluster.gro -s cluster1.tpr -pbc nojump -o clusternojump.xtc 
Then I did: ngmx -f clusternojump.xtc -s cluster1.tpr  and I had the same 
previous problem.
May I ask you to help me, please?

Dear Prof.


I have several questions about trjconv, please help me.


In my simulation is created 2 micelles.
1- When I do 3 steps of micelle clustering as follows:


  a- trjconv -f md.xtc -o a_cluster.gro-e 60 -pbc cluster
 b- grompp -f md.mdp -c a_cluster.gro -o a_cluster.tpr
 c- trjconv -f md.xtc -o a_cluster.xtc -s a_cluster.tpr -pbc nojump


I view 2 micelles according to result of my simulation in VMD but in ngmx 
isn't view 2 micelles but just is view 1 micelle and reminder of monomers are 
collected in several groups in different places.
So you don't have a single cluster of atoms... so as trjconv -h
notes, using -pbc cluster isn't very useful when you don't have a
cluster of atoms. All my advice of two days ago on this point still
applies.


Is it right if my criterion be view in VMD and is my micelle clustering correct?

It's correct if it looks the way you want it to.




2- If I select surfactants for clustering group and system for output group in 
step (a) and I select system for output group in step (c), command g_clustsize 
doesn't work correct, consequently, I did under step and made a .xtc file only 
for surfactants: 

   

    i- trjconv -f md.trr -o md-surfactant.xtc -n index.ndx

    

Then I did steps a, b and c for md-surfactant.xtc and in all of steps I 
selected surfactants for clustering and output group. Next, I did g_clustsize 
and it answered me correct.   

May I know that my way is correct, please?



3- By upper way I have 2 micelles that I got index.ndx file for cluster with 
maximum size by g_clustsize (maxcluster.ndx).
May I know how can I use from this for next calculation if I want consider 
only maximum cluster with all of system (water and ion) in calculations (for 
example rdf, gyration and etc)?

Again I think you are not using the word cluster in the sense the
GROMACS tools are. Each micelle could be a cluster of atoms, or the
pair of micelles could be a cluster of micelles. How to use the
tools will differ according to what you are trying to calculate on
what kind of cluster. Anyway, the atom numbers do not change with
the configuration of the atoms, so the same index file group
identifies the surfactant atoms in each frame. To identify the
*time* of the configuration with the largest diameter, something
like g_mindist -max might serve. However you may need to resolve
your PBC issue first.

[gmx-users] Modify charge groups

2011-12-27 Thread parto haghighi
Dear Justin,
Thank you very much for your response.
I have another question to continue my calculations.

To correct charges and charge groups I have to:
1) seprate the molecule to functional groups
2) some of these functional groups are already exist in selected force
field ( in aminoacid.rtp) with their charges, so as you said in fifth
tutorial  life is pretty easy
3) for new functional groups I have to:

  i) do QM calculation
 ii) calculate free energy of solvation or logP
iii) compare simulation results with experimental data

my questions are when my simulation results do not have any consistence
with experimental data, how can I modify new functional groups? and how can
I decide which one of atoms have improper charge?

Thanks a lot in advance.
P.Haghighi

[gmx-users] Compile error : libgmx.so: undefined reference to `pthread_setaffinity_np'

2011-12-27 Thread David Perel

Hello gmx-users --
 
 The following error occurs during compilation of Gromacs 4.5.5 :

  4.5.5/gromacs-4.5.5/src/gmxlib/.libs/libgmx.so: undefined reference to 
`pthread_setaffinity_np'

 There was an exchange on this problem on the gmx-users list on 21/09/2011,
 but apparently no solution.

 OS : RHEL 4

 CPU: Dual-Core AMD Opteron Processor 2220

 gcc: 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-11)

 glibc  : glibc-2.3.4-2.54

 The following is from the configure script :

FFTW=/afs/cad/hpc/amd/opt/fftw/3.3/gnu3

INSTALL_DIR=/some/dir
CPPFLAGS=-I$FFTW/include
LDFLAGS=-L$FFTW/lib

time ./configure \
CPPFLAGS=$CPPFLAGS \
LDFLAGS=$LDFLAGS \
--prefix=$INSTALL_DIR \
--with-fft=fftw3 \
21 | tee -a CONFIGURE.log

 Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks.

For a single (isolated, non-polymerized) molecule, there is no real need to 
build .rtp entries.  You can just construct an .itp file directly.  Either 
approach would work, I suppose, but there are online tools that write .itp files 
for you that can be modified.



3) for new functional groups I have to:

  i) do QM calculation
 ii) calculate free energy of solvation or logP
iii) compare simulation results with experimental data

can I decide which one of atoms have improper charge?




Such is the difficulty of empirical parameterization.  If you're dealing with a 
small enough model compound, then it is trivial to see which components of the 
nonbonded energy (van der Waals or Coulombic terms) are too large or too small. 
 You can scale parameters as needed.  I have generally found that charges make 
the biggest difference, but really exotic molecules may require more extensive 
reparameterization of vdW or bonded terms.

This is a very old GCC.  I suspect if you want to use threading, you will need a 
newer version.  Alternatively, you can disable threads during configuration.

[gmx-users] dodecahedron box

2011-12-27 Thread Zahra M
hi dear all users
I'm simulating 2 proteins in a dodecahedron unit cell,and I want to put these 2 
proteins in an exact distance from each other, and also from the boundaries, 
and I have some questions for doing this.
1) How can I implement this exact distance from the other protein and also the 
edges of the box?
2) when I use dodecahedron unit cell with this command: editconf -f 
protein.gro -o protein_newbox.gro -bt dodecahedron -d 1.0 -c, the first 
protein is in the center of the box, but as I want to add the second protein at 
the distance of 1.0 nm from the first one, I decided to determine box vectors 
and protein position myself, and I wrote: editconf -f protein.gro -o 
protein_newbox.gro  -box 4 4 6 -angles 60 60 90 -center 2 2 2, but a part of 
protein becomes outside the boundaries. I've examined the other numbers for 
-box vectors and -center, but the result was the same.
I don't know what to do, please help me.
thank you in advanced.

Re: [gmx-users] dodecahedron box

2011-12-27 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Zahra,

You could first create rectangular boxes for each of the two, using -d 0.5
Then translate one over the first box vector length of the other (along x:
editconf -translate). Put the two coordinate sets together and generate a
rhombic dodecahedron for the combined set.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
