Hello:
  Does anybody have any idea how to run g_tune_pme in a cluster? I 
tried many times with following command:


g_tune_pme_d -v -s npt_01.tpr -o npt_01.trr -cpo npt_01.cpt -g 
npt_01.log -launch -nt 24  log

There are multiple ways to achieve what you want with g_select.
Probably the easiest is
  resnr 2 and name H N,
or if you need the atoms in a different order (changing the order of H
and N above has no effect),
  resnr 2 and name H N permute 2 1.
You can also use plus or merge using the syntax nameH plus nameN
(plus and merge are equivalent if you are merging selections with
single atoms), but they are meant for more complex situations. You
cannot assign the result of a plus/merge into a variable, which may be
your source of confusion.

[gmx-users] gromacs 4.5.4 on cygwin cmake

2012-04-26 Thread vijaya subramanian




Hi
I am having problems installing gromacs on cygwin using autoconf so I used 
cmake instead.

I used the following option with cmake:
cmake GMX_PREFER_STATIC_LIBS=ON ../gromacs-4.5.4

followed by make and make install.  Gromacs installed finally without 
complaints.

gromacs installs but I get the following error when I try to run the different 
gromacs executables:

trjconv gives
/usr/local/gromacs/bin/trjconv.exe: error while loading shared libraries: 
cyggmx/usr/local/gromacs/bin/trjconv.exe:cyggmx
ana-6.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

gmxcheck gives:
/usr/local/gromacs/bin/gmxcheck.exe: error while loading shared libraries: cyggm
xpreprocess-6.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there a way around this.

I mainly need gromacs on my laptop for all the analysis routines and not to run 
md sims.

Thanks for any and all help.
Vijaya

2012-04-26 Thread Anirban Ghosh
Hello Albert,

Thanks.
Yes, CHARMM36 indeed handles lipids very well. But currently GROMACS 4.5.5
provides only the option for CHARMM27 FF and I found that ff43a1 very well
preserves the characters of both the protein as well as the lipids for
fairly long simulation time, hence I used that FF in the tutorial. But one
can surely add CHARMM36 to GROAMCS by doing all the necessary topology
conversions.

Hello Anirban:

  thanks for kind comments.
  How long did you mean  fairly long simulation time ? does 1u ns 
belongs to this range? CHARMM36 ff is available in gromacs website and 
we can download it and put them into top directory and then it works. It 
is not need to make any modification by ourselves.

[gmx-users] Force field for graphene sheet: deformation at the boundaries

2012-04-26 Thread Kathleen Kirchner

Dear colleagues,

I came across a puzzling behaviour when simulating graphene sheets 
(periodic in xy).


When running a simulation of just one position restrained graphene sheet 
in a large vacuum slab with periodic_molecules=yes and pbc=xyz,  I found 
a static deformation of the boundaries of the graphene sheet.


On search for a more suitable force field I finally found the deletion 
of angle/dihedral information from the topology the best result.


Why is a large graphene sheet with the same force field information for 
all atoms, bonds, angles and dihedrals deformed only at the border of 
the periodic simulation box? In case of errors in the force field I 
would have suspected bents all over the graphene sheet.



Some information on the structure and topology preparation:

The initial structure has been generated with the help of of 
ase.structure 
(https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/epydoc/ase.structure-module.html). A 3-4 
armchair nanoribbon resulted in a graphene sheet of 6 nm * 6 nm area.


Afterwards I run g_x2top to obtain the topology:

g_x2top -f Gl1.gro -o out.top -name Gl1 -pbc

with the addition of the line

C   opls_145   0.0   12.011   3   C   0.140   C   0.140   C   0.140

in gromacs4.5.5/share/gromacs/top/oplsaa.ff/atomname2type.n2t

and added position restraints in all directions for all carbon atoms 
(k_xyz=1000 kJ mol^-1 nm^-2).


Best regards
Kathleen

Hello Albert,

Good to know that!
I have carried out simulations using this FF in the range of 600 ns.

 Hello Anirban:

  thanks for kind comments.
  How long did you mean  fairly long simulation time ? does 1u ns belongs
 to this range? CHARMM36 ff is available in gromacs website and we can
 download it and put them into top directory and then it works. It is not
 need to make any modification by ourselves.

 Hello Albert,

 Thanks.
 Yes, CHARMM36 indeed handles lipids very well. But currently GROMACS
 4.5.5 provides only the option for CHARMM27 FF and I found that ff43a1 very
 well preserves the characters of both the protein as well as the lipids for
 fairly long simulation time, hence I used that FF in the tutorial. But one
 can surely add CHARMM36 to GROAMCS by doing all the necessary topology
 conversions.

[gmx-users] Atom types for phosphate group in OPLS-AA force field

2012-04-26 Thread Delmotte, Antoine

Dear Gromacs users,


I am here requesting your help with regards to the editing of the 
OPLS-AA force field, and more specifically, the choice of the atom types.


I have added an entry for the molecule CABP to the .rtp and .hdb files.

I can run pdb2gmx, genbox and editconf without getting any error. 
However, when I run grompp, I receive the following errors:


ERROR 1 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_A.itp, line 15054]:
No default Bond types

ERROR 78 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_M.itp, line 47276]:
No default Angle types

ERROR 82 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_M.itp, line 66639]:
No default Ryckaert-Bell. types

(there are 160 of those).


From what I could see in this mailing list, it seems the error comes 
from the choice of the atom types for the phosphate groups. I have tried 
several of them which seemed to make sense, but none of them allowed to 
remove all the errors.


The end of the chain is something like:

O
|
(...)--CH2--O--P--O--H
|
O

(details of the whole molecule here: 
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ligand/ligandsummary.do?hetId=CAPsid=1RBO 
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ligand/ligandsummary.do?hetId=CAPsid=1RBO )


The problem is about the atom type of the -OH group at the end. Here are 
the entries from the .atp file which I thought were relevant:


opls_445 30.97376 ; P in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2
opls_446 15.99940 ; O= in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2
opls_447 15.99940 ; OMe in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2 methyl phosphate
opls_448 12.01100 ; C in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2 6-31+G* CHELPG
opls_449 1.00800 ; H in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2

I chose opls_445 for the P, opls_446 for the 3 oxygens, and opls_449 for 
the hydrogen. Apparently, I got it wrong for the oxygen and the hydrogen 
of the OH group, at least. Unless the error actually comes from 
something else...


So my question is the following: Have I done something wrong about the 
atom types? If so, does anyone know which atom type I should choose?

The problem isn't necessarily the atom types themselves (which seem to be 
reasonable enough from the information provided), but rather that there are no 
default bonded parameters for these interactions.  If you look into 
ffnonbonded.itp, the second column is entitled bond_type and thus refers to 
the names used by grompp when interpreting how atoms are connected.  The actual 
bond, angle, and dihedral parameters are in ffbonded.itp, using these names. 
You would have to map out what the bond_type names are for each of these and 
find/derive new parameters for each of the interactions that are missing.

Re: [gmx-users] how to optimize the orientation of the protein in a dodecahedron

2012-04-26 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hey Thomas,

The rhombic dodecahedron corresponds to the packing of a sphere.
Consequently, the difference in the distance between periodic images
over the shortest diameter and the longest diameter is pretty small.
That means that there isn't really an optimal orientation in a rhombic
dodecahedron; all orientations are pretty much equal. And that's how
it should be :)

Cheers,

Tsjerk

 Is there any way to optimize the orientation of protein inside the

 It is a poor idea to do equilibration with Parinello-Rahman, which is
 unstable when the system is not already close to equilibrium. For some
 reason people still do it, despite at least a post per week on this list
 suggesting against it, and a warning in the manual. Use Berendsen to fix
 the density, then equilibrate further with P-R to get the right ensemble.

  now I want to continue the same for production run. Without ligand I

  crashing with following error-

  This probably means your constraint length are too long
 
  compared to the domain decomposition cell size.
 
  Decrease the number of domain decomposition grid cells or lincs_order.
 

 I'd rather expect your system was blowing up because of the above issue.
 Perhaps the suggestion in the error message is not as complete as could
 be desired - you have so many atoms per processor that the constraint
 length would normally be tiny with respect to the cell size. So I think
 the things you have tried below are rearranging the deck chairs on the
 Titanic.

Hi,

And even if not all orientations are exactly equal in this respect, bare in 
mind that the solute might rotate during the simulation, taking it out of any 
optimum.

 Hey Thomas,
 
 The rhombic dodecahedron corresponds to the packing of a sphere.
 Consequently, the difference in the distance between periodic images
 over the shortest diameter and the longest diameter is pretty small.
 That means that there isn't really an optimal orientation in a rhombic
 dodecahedron; all orientations are pretty much equal. And that's how
 it should be :)

Dear Anirban,

Thanks for the tutorial you have created for the newbies like me to follow.

I wonder the tutorial is only for the GPCRs not applicable for other
membrane proteins?

I also have another question about slecting a lipidbilayer, what is the
criteria is selecting it, for instance popc, dopc or dppc?

Thanks

Hi Tsjerk and Erik,

Thanks for the comments. It's strange, because I get different minimum
distance for different orientations of the same protein structure using the
afore-mentioned command lines. I used a single step energy minimization for
speed (em_real.mdp). Below are the outputs of editconf and the last lines
of the output .gro files. There are differences in the Volume (884.007 nm^3
versus 996.803 nm^3), system size, center, box vectors, box volume, and
shift. What do these differences mean? Can they explain the different
mindist I get?

Re: [gmx-users] how to optimize the orientation of the protein in a dodecahedron

2012-04-26 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Thomas,

Apologies, you are right. I was thinking of the distance to the wall.
If the protein is elongated, it will matter in the minimal distance
whether the protein major radius is oriented towards a face or towards
a corner. In addition, the shape of the protein plays a role. Yet it
doesn't really matter for the setup of the simulation, since the
rhombic dodecahedroon is built according to the radius of the system,
added the distance to the wall (-d). The rhombic dodecahedron is
constructed based on the inscribed sphere with that radius, such that
every orientation will satisfy the minimal distance between images.
For a given solute, the rhombic dodecahedron is uniquely defined,
regardless the orientation, in contrast to what happens with a
rectangular unit cell.

I hope this clarifies things.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

If there was a way to make P-R P-couping stable for equilibration in

covalent bound to the protein. I have calculated the charges of the ligand and 
the non-standard residue by QM method and trying to use the bond parameters in

[gmx-users] double precision energy minimization show zero pressure in gromacs 4.5.5

2012-04-26 Thread Yongchul Chung
Hi all,

I am carrying out energy minimization on bulk polymer system (N~2) with
integrator = l-bfgs in double precision gromacs 4.5.5.  I am using
tabulated force-fields for bonded, and non-bonded interactions. In the
force field, the coulombic interaction is set to zero, hence, the output is
zero in md.log file.

I used g_energy to check the energy and pressure of the system after the
minimization is finished. For some reason, the pressure output for the
system is 0 with gromacs 4.5.5. So I went back and checked the md.log file
to see if this happens during the simulation or not, and I found at time =
0, the pressure is 0.

I wanted to make sure that this has to do with gromacs version, and not how
the mdp file is configured, so I did same minimization with gromacs 4.0.7.
When using version 4.0.7 with the same input files, I get the pressure
output just fine. The potential energy at the end of simulation for both
cases are exactly the same (only difference is 4.0.7 converges at 1754
steps, and 4.5.5 converges at 2148 steps)

It is possible that I am doing (or setting) something wrong since I'm using
the same mdp file from 4.0.7 to 4.5.5. To check if I'm setting something
wrong by default, I compared the md.log output between these two versions.
It seems like there are a few new things with gromacs 4.5.5 that is missing
in 4.0.7. For example, with 4.5.5

nstcalcenergy = -1
nstcouple = -1
nstpcouple = -1
rlistlong = 1.1

I see nstcalcenergy is the frequency of energy output during calculation so
it does not affect any calculation. Also since I am not coupling my system
to thermal/pressure bath, nstcouple, nspcouple, and rlistlong does not mean
much here.

So I suppose I can repeat the calculation again with 4.0.7 instead. But
since I've already carried out lots of calculation with 4.5.5, I kind of do
not want to repeat the steps again in calculating pressure values, if
possible. If someone can help me with this, it would be great.

I am appending snippet of md.log output from 4.5.5 and 4.0.7 below as a
reference.

[gmx-users] FEP

2012-04-26 Thread Fabian Casteblanco
Hello all,

This is in reply to Michael shirts a while ago on a FEP of a R-CH3 to
an R-H group.  Below is the orignal email.  I recently tested out
mutating a CH3-CH3-(3dummy atoms) molecule on both sides in order to
test out that a peturbation would give you a total of 0.  forcefield
used was CGenFF

So for procedure was that I turned the CH3 group on the left to an H
with 3 dummy atoms and I turned an H and 3 dummy atoms on the right to
a CH3 group, essentially mutating the molecule to another version of
itself (should give you a total dG of 0 if it works).

STEP 1. (uncharging everything except the -CH2 group inbetween both
sides     CH3-CH2-HD3)  *D are dummy atoms

 I'm getting values in the near -20 kJ/mol for step 1 and 3.  I feel
it should be straightforward since I'm simply uncharging a CH3 group

2012-04-26 Thread Delmotte, Antoine

Dear Justin,

Many thanks for your response. I managed to reduce the number of errors 
by trying other atom types, by looking at what seemed most likely to be 
right from the ffnonbonded.itp and ffbonded.itp files.


Unfortunately, I did not manage to find a combination that both made 
some sense, and allowed to remove the errors. So I guess these things 
need to be parametrized, as you said.


Could you possibly let me know if there is a relatively easy and 
straightforward way to find these parameters? (I guess the answer is 
probably no, but it's always worth asking, I guess...)


I also noticed that there is a option -zero in grompp which Sets 
parameters for bonded interactions without defaults to zero instead of 
generating an error.


What does it mean exactly? Is it just taking the angles and distances 
inferred from the structure as the ones at equilibrium? Is it safe to 
use it?


I am just a beginner with MD, and I just want to do a quick run to test 
something. I have no need for super high accuracy, and the run I want to 
try will be very small (maybe 1 or 2 ns, or something like that), and 
for a very large system (~80 000 atoms). Would that be unreasonable to 
use that -zero option (it is tempting, I must say...)?


Thanks,

Antoine

Dear Gromacs users,


I am here requesting your help with regards to the editing of the 
OPLS-AA force

field, and more specifically, the choice of the atom types.

I have added an entry for the molecule CABP to the .rtp and .hdb files.

I can run pdb2gmx, genbox and editconf without getting any error. 
However, when

I run grompp, I receive the following errors:

ERROR 1 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_A.itp, line 15054]:
No default Bond types

ERROR 78 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_M.itp, line 47276]:
No default Angle types

ERROR 82 [file 1RBO_Protein_chain_M.itp, line 66639]:
No default Ryckaert-Bell. types

(there are 160 of those).


 From what I could see in this mailing list, it seems the error comes 
from the
choice of the atom types for the phosphate groups. I have tried 
several of them
which seemed to make sense, but none of them allowed to remove all 
the errors.


The end of the chain is something like:

O
|
(...)--CH2--O--P--O--H
|
O

(details of the whole molecule here:
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ligand/ligandsummary.do?hetId=CAPsid=1RBO
http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/ligand/ligandsummary.do?hetId=CAPsid=1RBO )

The problem is about the atom type of the -OH group at the end. Here 
are the

entries from the .atp file which I thought were relevant:

opls_445 30.97376 ; P in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2
opls_446 15.99940 ; O= in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2
opls_447 15.99940 ; OMe in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2 methyl phosphate
opls_448 12.01100 ; C in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2 6-31+G* CHELPG
opls_449 1.00800 ; H in MeOPO3--, MeOPO3H2

I chose opls_445 for the P, opls_446 for the 3 oxygens, and opls_449 
for the
hydrogen. Apparently, I got it wrong for the oxygen and the hydrogen 
of the OH

group, at least. Unless the error actually comes from something else...

So my question is the following: Have I done something wrong about 
the atom

types? If so, does anyone know which atom type I should choose?



The problem isn't necessarily the atom types themselves (which seem to 
be reasonable enough from the information provided), but rather that 
there are no default bonded parameters for these interactions.  If you 
look into ffnonbonded.itp, the second column is entitled bond_type 
and thus refers to the names used by grompp when interpreting how 
atoms are connected.  The actual bond, angle, and dihedral parameters 
are in ffbonded.itp, using these names. You would have to map out what 
the bond_type names are for each of these and find/derive new 
parameters for each of the interactions that are missing.

Re: [gmx-users] double precision energy minimization show zero pressure in gromacs 4.5.5

2012-04-26 Thread Justin A. Lemkul



On 4/26/12 11:00 AM, Yongchul Chung wrote:

Hi all,

I am carrying out energy minimization on bulk polymer system (N~2) with
integrator = l-bfgs in double precision gromacs 4.5.5.  I am using tabulated
force-fields for bonded, and non-bonded interactions. In the force field, the
coulombic interaction is set to zero, hence, the output is zero in md.log file.

I used g_energy to check the energy and pressure of the system after the
minimization is finished. For some reason, the pressure output for the system is
0 with gromacs 4.5.5. So I went back and checked the md.log file to see if this
happens during the simulation or not, and I found at time = 0, the pressure is 
0.

I wanted to make sure that this has to do with gromacs version, and not how the
mdp file is configured, so I did same minimization with gromacs 4.0.7. When
using version 4.0.7 with the same input files, I get the pressure output just
fine. The potential energy at the end of simulation for both cases are exactly
the same (only difference is 4.0.7 converges at 1754 steps, and 4.5.5 converges
at 2148 steps)

It is possible that I am doing (or setting) something wrong since I'm using the
same mdp file from 4.0.7 to 4.5.5. To check if I'm setting something wrong by
default, I compared the md.log output between these two versions. It seems like
there are a few new things with gromacs 4.5.5 that is missing in 4.0.7. For
example, with 4.5.5

nstcalcenergy = -1
nstcouple = -1
nstpcouple = -1
rlistlong = 1.1

I see nstcalcenergy is the frequency of energy output during calculation so it
does not affect any calculation. Also since I am not coupling my system to
thermal/pressure bath, nstcouple, nspcouple, and rlistlong does not mean much 
here.

So I suppose I can repeat the calculation again with 4.0.7 instead. But since
I've already carried out lots of calculation with 4.5.5, I kind of do not want
to repeat the steps again in calculating pressure values, if possible. If
someone can help me with this, it would be great.

I am appending snippet of md.log output from 4.5.5 and 4.0.7 below as a 
reference.



It does not make sense to calculate pressure during EM, so Gromacs outputs it as 
zero.  Since there are no velocities, any reported pressure value would be 
meaningless.

There is a large database at http://virtualchemistry.org/index.php but I don't 
know if there will necessarily be anything similar to what you're looking for.

Dear Justin,

Many thanks for your response. I managed to reduce the number of errors by
trying other atom types, by looking at what seemed most likely to be right from
the ffnonbonded.itp and ffbonded.itp files.

Unfortunately, I did not manage to find a combination that both made some sense,
and allowed to remove the errors. So I guess these things need to be
parametrized, as you said.

Could you possibly let me know if there is a relatively easy and straightforward
way to find these parameters? (I guess the answer is probably no, but it's
always worth asking, I guess...)



You can make a first effort by assigning parameters based on existing,
similar, parameters. They may or may not exist.


I also noticed that there is a option -zero in grompp which Sets parameters
for bonded interactions without defaults to zero instead of generating an
error.

What does it mean exactly? Is it just taking the angles and distances inferred
from the structure as the ones at equilibrium? Is it safe to use it?



What it means is ignore the problem and simply assign the value of zero for
equilibrium lengths, force constants, etc.


I am just a beginner with MD, and I just want to do a quick run to test
something. I have no need for super high accuracy, and the run I want to try
will be very small (maybe 1 or 2 ns, or something like that), and for a very
large system (~80 000 atoms). Would that be unreasonable to use that -zero
option (it is tempting, I must say...)?



I say that using -zero is a bad idea. It ignores the problem and whatever
results you obtain would be questionable, at best. Parameterization of novel
species is an advanced topic. Most people will spend several months developing
good parameters for a new residue or molecule.

Ah, I remember a discussion about this some time ago and was recalling the wrong 
side of it ;)  What you're doing is relying on the virial to dictate the 
pressure then.  There have been a vast amount of changes between 4.0.7 and 4.5.5 
so hopefully someone who has been involved with such action will know more.  It 
could be a sneaky bug, but I'm not stating that with 100% certainty.

[gmx-users] Position Restraints

Dear All,
I am using CG-MD using MARTINI forcefield. The system contains Protein and

components in system were moving around and interact with each other. Then,
I cannot do NVT or NPT equilibration.

If molecules that should be restrained are moving inappropriately, then the 
restraints are not being replied properly in the topology.  In the absence of 
more substantial information, there's nothing else that can be said.

[gmx-users] Biasing a dipole vector direction relative to the moment of inertia tensor eigenvectors

2012-04-26 Thread Andrew Ritchie
Greetings,

I am trying to do electrostatics calculations for a protein system which 
requires knowledge of the average dipole vector for an experimental probe.  
I've previously obtained this average dipole vector by using umbrella sampling 
with WHAM over the chi_2 dihedral angle of this probe, however, it's become 
clear that the chi_1 orientations are important enough to the average dipole 
vector that being in a local min for chi_1 and biasing the single degree of 
freedom is not sufficient.  Rather than doing the simulations for 2 DOF, it was 
suggested that I bias the dipole vector direction relative to the moment of 
inertia tensor's eigenvectors.  Gromacs has a function for orientation 
restraints relative to the rotation matrix for each frame, however, this is 
presented in the context of NMR spectroscopy and observables.  Would it be 
possible to use the orientation restraints function for umbrella sampling of 
dipole vector space and is there a straightforward way to interpret the biasing 
orientation region (which I believe is referred to as the observable in the  
manual) as spherical polar coordinates phi and psi?

Thanks,
Andrew Ritchie

In GROMACS, does CHARMM36 ff, calculate eventual 1-4 interactions that are

I ask this because I'm converting cholesterol parameters from CHARMM36c to gmx

Does setting gen_pairs to yes in the [defaults] section in the forcefield.itp 
work?

Coordinate files and topologies are largely independent of version.  There was a 
reorganization of the force fields between 4.0.7 and 4.5, but you can easily 
work around such things.



2. In my protein-DPPC lipid membrane, I use the electric filed Ez is
0.3V/nm. whether is the value too high to induce the bowling up?



I don't know.  The easiest way to deduce the source of the problem is to do so 
scientifically.  Turn off the electric field, does the simulation run? 
Eliminate other factors systematically until you arrive at the root of the problem.



3. why do the generated  edr file in gromacs 4.5.5 environment larger than
the edr file in gromacs 4.0.7 environment, even with the same gro file and
top file and the same commands?



There have been changes to the .edr format and its contents to allow for more 
features.

 There are multiple ways to achieve what you want with g_select.
 Probably the easiest is
  resnr 2 and name H N,
 or if you need the atoms in a different order (changing the order of H
 and N above has no effect),
  resnr 2 and name H N permute 2 1.
 You can also use plus or merge using the syntax nameH plus nameN
 (plus and merge are equivalent if you are merging selections with
 single atoms), but they are meant for more complex situations. You
 cannot assign the result of a plus/merge into a variable, which may be
 your source of confusion.

 Please give me some suggestions to fix it.


Based on the comment that precedes the error call in the code:

/* Make sure that the grid is not shifted too much */

I would assume that this means your system has simply become unstable and is
blowing up.

The error reported was : Number of coordinates in coordinate file (z_b4em.gro) 
does not match that of topology file (z.top). We are however not able to run 
the nohup command because of the above mentioned error.  I m sending you the

Your help in resolving this issue would be highly appreciated.

Re: [gmx-users] Re: GPCR MD Tutorial Using GROMACS (URL)

2012-04-26 Thread Peter C. Lai
Looks I got to the party late (at a conference with limited time to do emails).

As a shameless self-plug, we recently published a soup-to-nuts protocol paper
for GPCR + POPC + ligand in Gromacs 4.5.x and CHARMM27/36/CGenFF.

Our timescales are on the order 100+ns.

20ns/day is possible on 100K atoms with around 200 xeon x5650 cores over
qdr infiniband (4-order PME with 1.2nm cutoffs 0.16 fourier spacing, vdwtype 
switch=0.8 and h-bond LINCS with 0.002ps dt).

Re: [gmx-users] Re: GPCR MD Tutorial Using GROMACS (URL)

2012-04-26 Thread Anirban Ghosh
Hello Bala,

Yes, exactly as Justin said it represents just a workflow where a GPCR
protein (here B2AR) has been taken as an example. I mentioned it as a GPCR
tutorial because many often inquire about GPCR MD simulations only in the
forum. But it can be adapted for other membrane proteins as well. And
secondly again as Justin mentioned, the choice of lipid depends upon the
system you wish to replicate.

Regards,

Anirban
