[gmx-users] Re: g_msd additional information
Hi Justin, thank you so far. Now I got some more specific questions regarding g_msd I got my trajectory from 0-30ns. So far it should to be correct. I was analyzing this trajectory with g_msd and the following command: g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 16000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 17000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 18000 -o D_coeff and so on I observed an slight linear decreasing diffusion coefficient. The error bars instead were increasing (starting at -beginfit 15000 -endfit 23000) dramatically. Why do I observe such a behavior? Is this the reason: http://gromacs.5086.n6.nabble.com/MSD-and-self-diffusion-td4411869.html In addition to that I analyzed the trajectory every 1 ns: g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 1000 -endfit 2000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 2000 -endfit 3000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 3000 -endfit 4000 -o D_coeff Here I observed extreme fluctuations starting at 25ns. The errors bars starting at 27ns were huge. Why do I observe these extreme error bars and fluctuation for the last 3/5 ns? I checked my whole trajectory (g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3) as well, but it is a straight line, without any observable curves. Thank you for your comments and help.

There was a difference of 5 or so hbonds between intra-protein and MM+MS+SS hbonds. why is this so? I selected the options 7 7 for MM, 7 8 for MS and 8 8 for SS hydrogen bonds.

Re: [gmx-users] RMSD
The values are OK, you obtain a value of RMSD of 0.2510229 . The value -1 refers time, and it is because you do not have a trajectory. You are comparing only two .pdb structures, so it is consistent that you obtain only one value, as you do not have more than one frame to compare.

Re: [gmx-users] Problem with gromacs-4.6 compilation on Debian
Let me add two more things. Note that we *always* compare performance and acceleration to our super-tuned state-of-the-art CPU code, which I can confidently say that is among the fastest if not the fastest to date, and never to some slow (CPU) implementation. Therefore, while other codes might be able to get 10-20x with GPUs and many x-es even with pre-Fermi (CC 2.0) cards, for obvious reasons we simply can't. Still you'll get high *absolute performance* regardless whether you can use CPU only or CPU+GPU, so this should be a decent deal, right? If anybody volunteers to add software-based floating point atomic operations for CC 2.0 and try running the current kernels on earlier hardware, I'm willing to give pointers, but I simply had no time to try it myself. This would enable using earlier cards, with a considerable performance penalty of emulated atomic ops (plus these cards are anyway slower), but it *might* be worth a try! Feel free to drop me a mail if anybody is interested.

Re: [gmx-users] Hydrogen bonding differences
Dear Sir, This is 4.5.3. I have not tried nomerge. I did not use nomerge option in any of them, So if it has counted it (Hbond b/w same donor and acceptor but with different hydrogen) twice in one calculation then it will be counted twice in another, So wont the result with/without nomerge be the same? The difference is 4-5 Hbonds.. Thank you Kavya On Thu, Jan 24, 2013 at 7:30 PM, Erik Marklund er...@xray.bmc.uu.se wrote: Hi. What version was this? Have you tried with -nomerge?

Re: [gmx-users] RMSD
you can make a simple script which calculates all the pairwise RMSD values with g_rms. By doing this you can make a RMSD matrix. The usefulness of this depends on what you are trying to see, which wasn't clearly stated to us. I did it once because I wanted to know how similar the 20 conformers from a NMR PDB actually were. 2013/1/24 FLOR MARTINI flormart...@yahoo.com.ar The values are OK, you obtain a value of RMSD of 0.2510229 . The value -1 refers time, and it is because you do not have a trajectory. You are comparing only two .pdb structures, so it is consistent that you obtain only one value, as you do not have more than one frame to compare.

On 1/24/13 6:12 AM, dakoenig wrote: Hi Justin, thank you so far. Now I got some more specific questions regarding g_msd I got my trajectory from 0-30ns. So far it should to be correct. I was analyzing this trajectory with g_msd and the following command: g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 16000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 17000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 15000 -endfit 18000 -o D_coeff and so on I observed an slight linear decreasing diffusion coefficient. The error bars instead were increasing (starting at -beginfit 15000 -endfit 23000) dramatically. Why do I observe such a behavior? I don't have a direct answer, but the quality of the resulting calculation depends on the quality of the fit. I don't know how parsing out random parts of the MSD curve necessarily helps you. It should be a fairly straight line with default values of -beginfit and -endfit doing a decent job unless the ends are really weird. Is this the reason: http://gromacs.5086.n6.nabble.com/MSD-and-self-diffusion-td4411869.html I don't see how that's related. In addition to that I analyzed the trajectory every 1 ns: Careful, you're not analyzing every ns, you're fitting over every ns and doing the calculation over 30 ns of data. g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 1000 -endfit 2000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 2000 -endfit 3000 -o D_coeff g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3 -beginfit 3000 -endfit 4000 -o D_coeff Here I observed extreme fluctuations starting at 25ns. The errors bars starting at 27ns were huge. Why do I observe these extreme error bars and fluctuation for the last 3/5 ns? You're using less and less data and getting wider error bars, likely. I checked my whole trajectory (g_msd -f mdrun.xtc -s mdrun.tpr -nice 0 -b 0 -e 3) as well, but it is a straight line, without any observable curves. That's the expected outcome. If you zoom into the very beginning of the data (first few hundred ps or less), there is likely a small curvature that then leads into a long period of linear data. -Justin -- Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] Estimation of the trajectory sampling from Covariance analysis
If your trajectory halves were fully converged then you would observe no difference in their PCs. Since differences exist, your simulations cannot possibly have converged. Convergence implies the same covariance matrix, but unfortunately even if you had the same PCs, it's still a leap in the dark to assume convergence. (For example, in a deep double-well potential, each of two simulations could be trapped in a different well, and produce the same covariance matrix, despite their temporal ensembles not being identical, nor those ensembles resembling the thermodynamic ensemble.)

[gmx-users] switching and shifting in GMX 4.6 on GPUs
Dear GMX developers, Thanks so much for the GMX 4.6 release. Testing on GPUs has shown impressive speed-ups. I have a question however, regarding the missing switching and shifting for non-bonded interactions. I looked at the developer zone website and saw this comment below: http://www.gromacs.org/Developer_Zone/Roadmap/GROMACS_4.6 * Features currently not supported by the new GPU and SSE kernels: ** Switch and shift interactions (but those are not important, as there is an exact cut-off) While the statement maybe true that they are not important, some force fields are very particular about the use of switching and shifting, as it is integral to the FF development.

RE: [gmx-users] switching and shifting in GMX 4.6 on GPUs
Hi, I am not a fan of especially switching the potential, as that produces artifacts. Shifting is less harmful, but unnecessary in nearly all cases. But I do realize some force fields require this (although you can probably find a cut-off setting at which results would be very similar). Another reason for not implementing everything right away, is that it would increase the number of CPU and GPU kernels by a factor 3. What type(s) of LJ cut-off treatments would you consider most important? I know that CHARMM uses a switch function and Martini uses shift.

Re: [gmx-users] switching and shifting in GMX 4.6 on GPUs
Hi Berk, I am running membrane simulations using both the CHARMM36 and MARTINI v. 2.1 parameters. So both those cut-off treatments are important to me, but if there are ways around it I'd be happy to explore them to be able to use the GPUs. The place it would be most effective would probably be for the all-atom simulations, as the number of particles is much higher in general, so switching would be the most important at this stage. On a similar note the switching done in gromacs is by the energy - correct? This has been mentioned as an issue for the CHARMM36 lipid parameters as it is the forces that are normally switched off in both CHARMM and NAMD, although both options are available there. The difference I am told results in a smaller area/lipid for the bilayers.

Re: [gmx-users] On the choosing of GPU for MD runs
Hi, Typically, the fastest the GPU the better. On a more detailed level, less multiprocessors (that's not cores!) with faster clock speeds help in achieving higher performance with small systems. As GPUs are highly parallel processors, 20-30k atoms/GPU can be considered small-ish - especially with Kepler GPUs. Our algorithms neither require large amount of memory nor are affected very much by the speed of the on-board GPU main memory. For this reason ECC, which is available on Tesla compute cards, has a negligible effect on the performance. The ideal CPU and GPU depends on the type of simulation and the amount/mix of force computational work determined by system and settings. With PME is used, the bonded force and long-range electrostatics is calculated on the CPU while the GPU computes non-bonded forces (see the wiki for more details). Therefore, the longer the cut-off you provide in the mdp file (which will result in coarser the PME grid) the relatively higher the GPU non-bonded workload compared to the CPU PME workload will be. mdrun does automated particle-particle - PME load balancing but I will not get into those details now. The point is that if for a given cut-off the GPU is not fast enough to finish before the CPU, the CPU will have to wait and therefore idle; the opposite case will be handled by the PP-PME load balancing. Therefore, for a modern desktop CPU, as the GROMACS CPU code is also highly tuned, you will typically need a mid to high-end desktop GeForce card or a Tesla GPU. If you use long cut-offs (1.2 nm), my guess is that you might need a faster GPU for the pretty fast Intel CPU you have, but that you can see by looking at the amount of Wait for GPU time in the log file. For reference, on an Intel i7-3930K and a GTX 680 with a 134k solvated protein system with PME, rc=1.0, dt=5fs (with virtual sites) I get 33 ns/day (15 ns/day with dt=0.2 without virtual sites) with pretty good CPU-GPU balance (only a few % waiting for GPU). If I increase the cut-off to 1.2 nm, the performance drops to 26.8 ns/day caused by GPU taking much more time to compute due to the larger cut off (the force-only kernel takes 30% more time) and the CPU ends up waiting for 35% of the total time.

Re: [gmx-users] Problems with g_anaeig
Mark, as I told previously to Justin ( lets to consider the problems with g_anaeig only in that topic to avoid producing doubles ) the problem is not in the average structure (it looks fine) but in the filter.xtc trajectory produced by g_anaeig. When I load that xtc to any structure in vmd I obtained dynamics picture of my protein with broken geometry (its look loke my protein was shrunken). But when I compared eigenvectors ( produced by g__covar) with the the results of the same cov.analysis where there were no such problems in filter.xtc I obtained full coverage in the same modes ( so g_covar in both cases produce apropriate cov.matrix and the problem only in g_anaeig .

There is some bug with g_anaeig the souce of which I could not fully understand. Good Advice: until you can almost write a code patch to fix it, be very hesitant in suggesting any software has a bug. The best people to help solve the issue are often those who wrote the code, and you don't want them annoyed with you :-) I have problems when I perform PCA of X-ray data set. Below you can my workflow. g_covar -f b2ar_xray_coors.pdb -s ref.pdb -o PCA_eigenval.xvg -v PCA_eigenvec.trr -av PCA_average.pdb -last 8 g_anaeig -v PCA_eigenvec.trr -s ref.pdb -f b2ar_xray_coors.pdb -rmsf eigrmsfPCA.xvg -filt here b2ar_xray_coors.pdb is the trajectory made from 10 X-ray structures of my protein (only main chain atoms are included) ref_pdb is the first frame of that trajectory As the result I've obtained reasonable eigenvalues and aigenvectors from g_covar BUT when I check filter trajectory ( produced by g_anaeig) fitted it to the ref.pdb or to the averaged structure in both cases I've obtained very distorted geometry of the protein in thefiltered trajectory. I have no such problems in case of PCA of MD trajectory ( when -f trajectory.trr is from the md snapshots not from x-ray structures) How it could be fixed ? How have you excluded the hypotheses that your reference structure is not a valid representative of the middle of the range of variation? Or even that the X-ray structural ensemble really is one?
