Re: [gmx-users] Re: Simulation in the high temperature conditions

2012-04-16 Thread James Starlight
Dear Gromacs Users!

By that moments I've completed 2 sets of simulation in high temperature

1- With applied posres on the backbone atoms ( fc= 200 ).

The result was- that the posres prevented motion of the helixes as the
rigid bodies so I've not noticed any conformation sampling.

Question : Could I observe some conformation sampling on that trajectory by
means of some external tricks ? E.g extracting of the eigenvectors via PCA?

2 With applied network of disres applied on backbone atoms of the helix
elements of my protein within Rc=1nm.

As the result of that simulation I've observed distortion of my protein
wich resulted in some kind of shrinking of the helix elements.

Question :  How I could specify that disres more correctly ? If I've
observed some kind of shrinking of my protein does it means that Rc was
chosen incorectly or should I define disres in anothe manner ? ( I'have not
quite understand what exatly is the R_fract and in what situation it could
be useful ).

Re: [gmx-users] Clustering

2012-04-16 Thread Erik Marklund
Hi,

It's been a while since I used g_clustsize, but if I'm not mistaken you get the 
number of molecules per cluster as output, from which you can estimate the 
physical size of the clusters with a few assumptions. If that's not good enough 
you also get the identities of the molecules in the clusters, which you can 
then use as input, along with the trajectory, for g_gyrate (or similar) to get 
more information.

trjconv -cluster doesn't calculate the sizes or report anything new, so I find 
it mostly useful for visualization in this context.

Best,

Erik

[gmx-users] Re:Data Analysis

2012-04-16 Thread lloyd riggs

Dear All,

Is there a way to extract the pull force (and not the total force or energy) 
for a specified group (indexed) or center of mass, rather than just the total 
pullf over a run?  I wanted to break up the pullf into varied sub 
contributions, however as it is applied to the center of mass of the pull 
group, I do not know if it is possible.  I am just trying to sort out easier 
Vs. More complicated means of doing the same thing as there are several methods 
for achieving the end result I wanted (output plots).

Any suggestions are appriciated as well.

Sincerely,

Stephan Lloyd Watkins

If you've restrained the position of the atoms, there's no trick that can

Without seeing your [distance_restraints] directive, it's impossible to comment

Yes. See 3.17.2 for description of DLB. Various algorithms constrain 
minimum cell sizes. Perhaps due to inhomogeneous particle distribution, 
ideal load balance would require violation of the minimum size. So 
GROMACS does the correct thing - compromises load balance (and thus 
performance) and lets you know there's an issue.

Re: [gmx-users] Re: Simulation in the high temperature conditions

2012-04-16 Thread James Starlight
Justin,


I've applied disres on each backbone atom of my potein within cutoff
distance of 1nm ( Rc=1.0 nm). I've selected this value for cutoff to
decrease overall ammount of the restains in my itp file. Also such value (
1nm) was selected because of the relatively tight packing of the alpha
helices in the TM buddle of membrane protein.

The selected values for disre_dist, disre_up2 and disre_frac were 1, 1.2
and 0.5 nm respectually . Also I've made disres with 1 and 0 nm values but
I have not noticed any difference in the resulted behaviour of the
constrained system. As the consequence I have not clearly realise what
exactly is the disre_frac and in what exactly cases this option could be
helpfull.


This is an example of my output itp file

[ distance_restraints ]
;   i j ? label  funct loup1up2 weight
1 5 1 0  1  01.647312.64731  1
110 1 1  1  0 1.7326 2.7326  1
112 1 2  1  01.838862.83886  1

129 1 8  1  02.271473.27147  1
130 1 9  1  02.357933.35793  1


I've made 10 ns simulation of such system and observe rapid shrinking of my
protein starting with first 100ps like the distances that I chose were too
small and forces shrink my protein. But when I've tried larger distance
value for disre_dist my protein denatured rapidly as no disres were
presented.

So the main question is How I could specify this disre values if I want to
restrain the motion of the helixes of my protein within disre value ( e.g
10 A) relatively current confrmation ?

using VMD extracted coordinates into the pdb file. As I want to run
explicit solvent simulation now I removed hydrogens so that pdb2gmx will

Dear all,

Im using wham on series of runs and have run into the following proble.

The command line 

g_wham_d -if pullf.dat -it tpr.dat -temp 300 -o whamf.xvg -hist outf.hist 
-unit kCal

will work in one run, but not the next one as I go through I found a couple 
that give the error

Fatal error:
Found 1 pull groups in traj_4.tpr,
 but 2 data columns in pullf.xvg (expected 1)

if I remove the time column, then it asks for two columns.  I get the same 
thing from the pullx.

now, I have looked and looked and can not find a problem in anything.  All the 
.tpr files were generated from a template file the same, all the outputs look 
the same and have the same format and positions down to tab spacing, and the 
input files (Dat files) are simple one lines pullf.xvg, pullx.xvg or #.tpr.  
This one is driving me batty as I cant find an inconsistency but have an 
inconsitent error message.

This is around only a couple runs, and I was going over each one individually 
with wham, before the generalized mass submission to wham for error bars and 
gaussien.  The ones that work give nice curves and are relativly close in 
output, the pullf and pullx of the ones that work and dont are realitve as 
well?  Any suggestions before I go batty are appriciated.

Justin,


I've applied disres on each backbone atom of my potein within cutoff 
distance of 1nm ( Rc=1.0 nm). I've selected this value for cutoff to 
decrease overall ammount of the restains in my itp file. Also such value 
( 1nm) was selected because of the relatively tight packing of the alpha 
helices in the TM buddle of membrane protein.




I still don't see how you're defining this cutoff anywhere in genrestr or any 
other step.  Do you have some special index group that you're using in your 
genrestr command?  It may not be relevant, I'm just very confused.


The selected values for disre_dist, disre_up2 and disre_frac were 1, 1.2 
and 0.5 nm respectually . Also I've made disres with 1 and 0 nm values 
but I have not noticed any difference in the resulted behaviour of the 
constrained system. As the consequence I have not clearly realise what 
exactly is the disre_frac and in what exactly cases this option could be 
helpfull.




The -disre_dist option sets the tolerance for defining the 'lo' value.  By 
default, it is a fixed distance below the actual distance contained in the 
coordinate file.  The default value is 0.1, so if your distance is 0.5, the 'lo' 
value is set to 0.4 (i.e. 0.5 - 0.1).  When using the -disre_frac value, the 
value specified in -disre_dist is ignored, so be aware that when you combine the 
two, you override -disre_dist (as stated in genrestr -h).  So if you're using 
-disre_frac of 0.5, your 'lo' value for a 0.5-nm distance is 0.25.




This is an example of my output itp file

130 1 9  1  02.357933.35793  1


I've made 10 ns simulation of such system and observe rapid shrinking of 
my protein starting with first 100ps like the distances that I chose 
were too small and forces shrink my protein. But when I've tried larger 
distance value for disre_dist my protein denatured rapidly as no disres 
were presented.




The problem here is that you're allowing all distances between 0 and 'up1' to 
experience zero restraining force.  That gives the system incredibly wide 
latitude and basically makes the restraints useless.  What you're calling either 
shrinking or denaturing are likely just two possible outcomes from the structure 
being destabilized in some way.  Try running genrestr with default options to 
see if you get a better result.


So the main question is How I could specify this disre values if I want 
to restrain the motion of the helixes of my protein within disre value ( 
e.g 10 A) relatively current confrmation ?




Are you wanting the restraints to be maintained within a 1-nm distance of their 
current value?  That's a very wide latitude.  If that's what you want, then use 
the -disre_dist option without -disre_frac.

Re: [gmx-users] Re: Simulation in the high temperature conditions

2012-04-16 Thread James Starlight
Justin,


Thank you for explanation. Tomorrow I'll try to check results of simulation
with the disres applied with its default values as well as with narrower
-disre_dist values ( ignorring -disre_frac option at all )  and post here
results of such simulations.


1) The cut-off distance wich I've specified was defined with the genrest
comand with the -cutoff 1.0 flag. Finally all restrains were apllied on the
backbone atoms of alpha helices of the Transmembrane domain of my protein
wich I've defined in the index.ndx file. So all loops of my protein were
not-restrained at all.

Also I have some small  question about size of output edr file. I've
noticed that size of this files of such simulations  (with the disres
applied as well as with the -pd flag ) is a very big ( 10-15 gb) Why this
occurs and how I could fix it?



thanks again for help,

There are energy terms associated with distance restraints.  They cause the .edr

nstenergy to make the files smaller, or not use the restraints.

 Under Miscellaneous, click Distribution and you will find the DSSPold

There's a patch under review that will provide support for DSSP 2.X. Just

[gmx-users] Protein ligand molecular dynamics simulation

2012-04-16 Thread sai nitin
Hi all,

I have done complex (protein + ligand) complex from autodock software using
this complex im trying to follow

http://www.bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/Pages/Personal/justin/gmx-tutorials/complex/01_pdb2gmx.html
tutorial

But when i take complex structure directly from autodock result and run
PDB2GMX it will give error because it is not recognizing ligand topology
which is in complex structure.
Then i followed justin tutorial took protein alone and applied Charmm27
Force field and used generate ligand topologies using Swissparam tool (
http://swissparam.ch/) when i do Editconf and created cubic box ligand is
going away from protein.

Actually my main task to place ligand in paraticular binding site in my
protein and perform molecular dynamics.

Can any body tell me how to do this..?


Thanks in advance

Probably related to type 9 dihedrals, but without copies of the error

Re: [gmx-users] protein and DMPC in Charmm36 ff

2012-04-16 Thread Krzysztof Kuczera
An easy way to build a protein in a bilayer is through the charmm-gui 
website

www.charmm-gui.org/
Partial drawbacks are that you need CHARMM to perform final equilibration
and then may need to rename some atoms to work with GROMACS
On plus side is that charmm36.ff retains the original CHARMM atom names 
in the lipids

- VMD membrane builder only provides POPE and POPC lipids...

- on the Peter Tieleman page there is a pdb but with different atom

not regenerate hydrogens - lipids.hdb file is empty

up with separated copies of starting patch... even with -dist 0 0 0.


2) How to choose proper lipid patch size and simulation box size? For 
globular proteins I would just run editconf with -bt dodecahedron -d

[gmx-users] NPT simulation for mutation study

2012-04-16 Thread Shyno Mathew
Dear Gromcas users,
I am doing some mutation study, NPT simulations. Initially I was using a
generic .mdp file I got from my advisor and I was able to run the systems
for ~50ns with out any issues.
But then I spend time reading about gromacs and created a .mdp file.
However, with my .mdp file the runs are crashing with error:
Fatal error:
The X-size of the box (4.500406) times the triclinic skew factor (1.00)
is smaller than the number of DD cells (5) times the smallest allowed cell
size (0.90)
I understand I can try particle decomposition for this system, but before I
want to make sure there is no error in my .mdp file.
When I load the trajectory in the vmd, I can see the box is getting
compressed too much. The contents of the current .mdp file are shown below.
This .mdp file varies from my advisor's for few parameters which I have
shown at the end.

[gmx-users] GROMOS87 and CHARMM27

2012-04-16 Thread Shima Arasteh
Dear GROMACS users,

I reproduced the results of a protein-membrane system by using force field 
GROMOSE87. This protein forms ion channel in membrane.
Now if I wanna study the ion conduction through this channel using force field 
CHARMM27 in umbrella sampling method, is it possible? Can I use the results of 
the system simulation which has been derived by GROMOS87?

Thanks in advance,
Shima

Dear Gromcas users,
I am doing some mutation study, NPT simulations. Initially I was using a
generic .mdp file I got from my advisor and I was able to run the
systems for ~50ns with out any issues.
But then I spend time reading about gromacs and created a .mdp file.
However, with my .mdp file the runs are crashing with error:
Fatal error:
The X-size of the box (4.500406) times the triclinic skew factor
(1.00) is smaller than the number of DD cells (5) times the smallest
allowed cell size (0.90)


use isotropic pressure scaling.
if you make mutations, take care to use the same number of water 
molecules and ions, such that you can compare the energies of the systems.



I understand I can try particle decomposition for this system, but
before I want to make sure there is no error in my .mdp file.
When I load the trajectory in the vmd, I can see the box is getting
compressed too much. The contents of the current .mdp file are shown below.
This .mdp file varies from my advisor's for few parameters which I have
shown at the end.

By definition, switching to a different forcefield like that usually requires 
the regeneration of the system's topology, so your new system will be 
different from your old one anyway. In addition, you may need to rename the 
atoms in the coordinate files obtained from previous gromos runs to match 
those in the charmm27 residue files.

 Actually my main task to place ligand in paraticular binding site in my

 Can any body tell me how to do this..?

1] pdb2gmx generate ligands.top (if possible, basically you need
generate your ligand.itp by other ways) and rename it as ligands.itp
2] pdb2gmx generate protein.top and rename it as protein.itp (also
need delete some entry)
3] create the topol.top includes the ligands.itp and protein.itp, take
care the double entry.

[gmx-users] Re: Re: NPT simulation for mutation study

2012-04-16 Thread Shyno Mathew
Hello Prof. David,

thanks for your reply.
I will try using isotropic pressure scaling. But still I am not clear why
the simulations ran fine with first .mdp file. As mentioned in the previous
email only few parameters were different in my .mdp file compared to my
advisor's.
I am just copying those parameters again:
Parameters that are different in my advisor's file:
DispCorr = Ener
tau_t= 0.20
compressibility  = 5e-6  5e-6  5e-6  0 0 0
gen_vel  = yes
gen_temp = 1
gen_seed = 473529
can including dispersion corrections for pressure induce such a huge change?

thanks
Shyno

By changing several variables at once, it becomes hard (read: almost impossible) 
to say what caused it.  By also not generating velocities (assuming this is step 
1 in equilibration), you can induce instability.


The real lesson is you shouldn't make haphazard changes or take anything for 
granted as far as settings that should work.  Spending a few hours reading the 
literature will save you weeks of troubleshooting an elusive problem.

By definition, switching to a different forcefield like that usually requires 
the regeneration of the system's topology, so your new system will be 
different from your old one anyway. In addition, you may need to rename the 
atoms in the coordinate files obtained from previous gromos runs to match

Not without significant modification of names, presence of H atoms, etc.  You'll 
need to regenerate a suitable topology, as has been said, and then run thorough

As I said before, you've changed too many variables simultaneously (not very 
scientific ;) to pinpoint exactly what the problem is.  Systematic changes, as 
prescribed by your force field and chosen algorithms, are the only suitable way 
to run a simulation.  Right now, it's a pure guess as to what went wrong.

[gmx-users] ewald_rtol

2012-04-16 Thread Andrew DeYoung
Hi,

Does the parameter ewald_rtol affect PME electrostatics (coulombtype = PME),
or does ewald_rtol only affect Ewald electrostatics (coulombtype = Ewald)?
In the manual description of the .mdp parameters
(http://manual.gromacs.org/current/online/mdp_opt.html#el), it says in the
Ewald section, The relative accuracy of direct/reciprocal space is
controlled by ewald_rtol.  Similarly, page 100 of the manual says, The
ewald_rtol parameter is the relative strength of the electrostatic
interaction at the cut-off. Decreasing this gives you a more accurate direct
sum, but a less accurate reciprocal sum.

However, I do not see ewald_rtol specifically discussed in any of the manual
sections on PME.  Does this mean that ewald_rtol is only relevant for the
(normal, classical) Ewald sum electrostatics?

Thank you!

[gmx-users] What is epsilon_r?

2012-04-16 Thread Andrew DeYoung
Hi,

What is the parameter epsilon_r mentioned in the manual
(http://manual.gromacs.org/current/online/mdp_opt.html#el)?  The manual says
that it is the relative dielectric constant.  My initial thought was that
this would only be relevant for reaction-field electrostatics, or somewhere
where implicit solvent is used.  However, it seems that epsilon_rf (not
epsilon_r) is used for reaction-field purpose.

I am not using implicit solvent in my system, nor am I using a
reaction-field method (I am using PME electrostatics); in my system, I am
using an all-atom description.  Then, does epsilon_r generate additional
dielectric, beyond what naturally arises from the all-atom description of
the solvent?  

Even though I am not using a reaction-field method, epsilon_r is clearly
affecting something, because when I use g_potential to calculate the
electric potential, the results vary considerably depending on the value of
epsilon_r that I use in my .mdp file.

Do you have any thoughts about what epsilon_r does in an all-atom descripton
of a solvent?  Does it provide additional charge screening?

Thank you kindly!

[gmx-users] Re: temperature

2012-04-16 Thread Roy
Mark,

According to the manual, the temperature of a group should always be
calculated from the total KE of the group (see eq 3.13 in the manual), which
presumably includes  contributions from the translational motion of the
center of mass of the group, plus the rotational motion around the center of
mass of the group, plus any random non-rigid motion within the group. 
However, according to appendix D.72 for g_traj, the option –ot plots the
temperature of each group calculated only from the rigid body translational
velocity of the center of mass of the group, since the command –ot implies
–com. Aren’t these two definitions of temperature incompatible, since the
–ot definition ignores two terms (rotational and random)?
