[gmx-users] clarification regarding contact map - g_mdmat

2013-01-31 Thread Kavyashree M
Dear users,
I used g_mdmap to calculate the C-alpha contact map of
the trajectory. the distance cut off of 8.0 Ang was selected
The protein is a dimer of 237 residues. The output of -no was
like this -
#resratio  tot  mean  natm  mean/atm
  1 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  2 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  3 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  4 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  5 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  6 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000
  7 1.000  473   473.0001   473.000

So it mean that on an average each calpha atom contacts all
other C-alpha atom in the whole trajectory at some point of time.

In order to cross check it I collected data only for one time frame.
This was also very similar results. all the residues have a minimum
of atleast 471 contacts.

Some one kindly clarify where I am going wrong.? the command
I used was -
g_mdmat -f .*.xtc -s *.tpr -no *.xvg -mean *.xpm -b 4000 -e 4000 -t 8.0

Is this trucating distance in Angstroms or nanometer?

Thank you
Kavya

[gmx-users] grimaces 4.6 installation error

2013-01-31 Thread Fernando Favela
Dear Gromacs users,

I'm trying to install GMX 4.6 in a 64 Bit Machine with Nvidia GTX 680 cards, 
I've already installed the intel compilers, cuda 5 and openmpi.

I do the following procedure:
CC=/opt/intel/bin/icc CXX=/opt/intel/bin/icpc cmake ..

then 

sudo make -j 12

and I get this error:

I think this issue must be related with the compilers because if I use the 
default gnu compilers the problem disappear.

Could anybody help me please?

Thanks in advance.

Dear Dr.Abraham,

Thank you for taking the time to look at my files.
However, I have one question remained in my mind:

Where is the "atomtypes.atp" used in the force field?

I suspect that this file is only for clarification for the user in
order to eliminate/minimize
confusion and this file is not read by the program. Am I correct?



No, the .atp file is used by pdb2gmx.  See the manual.



Dear Justin,
I am not using pdb2gmx in any steps of preparation of my input files. I
have written a short script myself that converts my .xyz files to .gro
files.
So, this (not using the "atomtypes.atp" file) should not be a problem for
me...



Nor would I expect it.  But since you asked... ;)





I would also like to ask you for any insight on why in my system the

tempera

ture keeps increasing linearly with time under NVE ensemble (even up to
unrealistic T of 550K)? I have verified this force filed with DL_POLY and
my system showed a gradual temperature decrease which is the correct
physical behavior of the system.



Sorry, can't comment here.  Without an .mdp file, it's hard to say
anything.
Apologies if you posted it before and I missed it.



Here is my .mdp file. I appreciate it if you could take a look and point
out any possible errors to me:

are found by g_x2top.

Things I have thought of so far:

of g_x2top uses a 10% tolerance, which is more than enough for my system.

  -- PBC issue? But some of the atoms near the cell boundaries are fine



Some are fine, others are way off.  The first two atoms g_x2top complains about 
are C3 and C5.  Turning on a periodic reference shows that C3 (missing two 
bonds) is 0.077 and 0.197 nm away from the two N atoms to which it should be 
bonded, far from the specified value of 0.130.  C5 (missing one bond) is 
similar, because one of the N atoms is 0.221 nm away, while the other N is fine 
at 0.126 nm.  I didn't check the rest, but I suspect the same issues apply.

Two questions:

  2. I'm not using AMBER as forcefield, so I'm not sure if that wrapper on

Re: [gmx-users] Removal of global rotation/translation

2013-01-31 Thread Justin Lemkul



On 1/31/13 11:53 AM, George Patargias wrote:

Dear Gromacs list

I would like to ask a question regarding the global rotation and
translation removal in GROMACS.

In my mdp file I use the following options:
; mode for center of mass motion removal
comm-mode= Linear
; number of steps for center of mass motion removal
nstcomm  = 10
; group(s) for center of mass motion removal
comm-grps=

Are these options ensuring that global rotation and translation is removed
every 10 steps?



More directly, it removes net motion of the center of mass, thus avoiding 
problems like the flying ice cube.



Is the trjconv command (as issued below) also removing global rotation and
translation?

trjconv -f traj_Total.xtc -s prod1.tpr -o rot+trans.xtc -fit rot+trans



Not necessarily global motions, but you can apply the fitting to whatever subset 
of atoms you like.



In which case is the "-center" option in trjconv is used?



Many.  trjconv is sort of a Swiss army knife, capable of doing dozens of things 
if the right options are applied.  The -center option is probably most often 
used to center a simple solute in the box in every frame.

Dear Dr.Abraham,

Thank you for taking the time to look at my files.
However, I have one question remained in my mind:

Where is the "atomtypes.atp" used in the force field?

I suspect that this file is only for clarification for the user in
order to eliminate/minimize
confusion and this file is not read by the program. Am I correct?



No, the .atp file is used by pdb2gmx.  See the manual.


I would also like to ask you for any insight on why in my system the tempera
ture keeps increasing linearly with time under NVE ensemble (even up to
unrealistic T of 550K)? I have verified this force filed with DL_POLY and
my system showed a gradual temperature decrease which is the correct
physical behavior of the system.



Sorry, can't comment here.  Without an .mdp file, it's hard to say anything. 
Apologies if you posted it before and I missed it.



One clue which might be useful is that even though when I hand-calculate
the total charge of my system to be zero, the gormacs warns me that my
system has the total charge of 0.000108. Could this be the reason? Do you
have any suggestions for me to solve this potential problem? (I am not
using gromacs in double-precision mode).



Probably just a normal consequence of floating-point math.  Check the topology 
to be sure.

There's nothing that leaps out at me as being wrong - but syntax checking
is the job of the parser (grompp) and logic checking can only be done by
you. To do that, I would proceed slowly, demonstrating that small chunks of
the force field can be used to generate results you can validate against
something external (e.g. experiment, or a reference implementation of the
force field). Don't just grab your simulation system and assume everything
works!

Feature requests are always welcome on redmine.gromacs.org.  In the past 7 or so 
years of reading this list, I can count on one hand the amount of times people 
have asked about mixing Buckingham and LJ interactions, if that gives you any 
idea.  Either people who want it are very quiet, or there's not a very 
persistent need for such features.  The core development team only implements 
what they feel is generally useful or has been necessary for their own work. 
There is only so much time to get all these things done, and version 4.6 IMHO 
represents a heroic amount of effort given all the new toys we have to play 
with.  If people have useful contributions for various features, they are always 
welcome.  Gromacs is open-source for a reason :)


Gromacs was indeed built around biomolecular simulations, but I have seen people 
do rather elegant and creative work with other systems.  Any time I do anything 
particularly crafty, I write a tutorial ;)  Gromacs is very user-driven.


We are on our way to version 5.0, which will likely represent significant change 
to just about everything.  If there are features you want (or even better, are 
willing to help develop), Redmine is the place to file away wishlists, and the 
gmx-developers mailing list is the appropriate forum to talk about code.

Re: [gmx-users] g_x2top is missing bonds

2013-01-31 Thread Matt Watkins

Hey FX,

out of interest (and I ask off list as it is probably not very politically  
correct) why do you want to use gromacs? I've found it to be a nightmare  
for other than proteins/trivial systems.


Hope things are well,

Matt

expected). Given that the .gro file is correct (including PBC), where  
could the problem come from? And how to diagnose it further?


Thanks in advance for any hint, and apologies if I've not given enough

[gmx-users] choice of the hydrogen name added thanks to .hdb file ?

2013-01-31 Thread Landraille
Hello, 

I would like to know if it's possible to give a specific name to an hydrogen
which will be added thanks to the .hdb file. 
Indeed, by default, the hydrogens added on the same carbon have the same
name with the last number incremented by 1. 
Example : for charmm36, the hydrogens added to the CB atom of ARG are named
HB1 & HB2 thanks to the line "2  6  HB  CB  CG  CA" in the aminoacids.hdb
file. 

But if I want the names H1A & H1B ? If i write the lines "2  6  H1  CB  CG
 CA" in the aminoacids.hdb file, the hydrogens will have the names H11 &
H12. 

I ask this question because I would like to add hydrogens to lipids
automatically and the difference between hydrogens on the same atom depends
of a letter and not a number in charmm36. (H13A, H13B H13C are linked to C13
in POPC for example) 

Thank you.

[gmx-users] Removal of global rotation/translation

2013-01-31 Thread George Patargias
Dear Gromacs list

I would like to ask a question regarding the global rotation and
translation removal in GROMACS.

In my mdp file I use the following options:
; mode for center of mass motion removal
comm-mode= Linear
; number of steps for center of mass motion removal
nstcomm  = 10
; group(s) for center of mass motion removal
comm-grps=

Are these options ensuring that global rotation and translation is removed
every 10 steps?

Is the trjconv command (as issued below) also removing global rotation and
translation?

trjconv -f traj_Total.xtc -s prod1.tpr -o rot+trans.xtc -fit rot+trans

In which case is the "-center" option in trjconv is used?

Thanks.

George

Re: [gmx-users] Error in BlueGene

Hello,

before submitting to Bluegene, I always test the system in my local 8 core
cpu, and if it works, it will also work in Bluegene, as long as I balance the
domain decomposition for the larger number of cores. If your system insists in
exploding, even after energy minimization, you could try to decrease the
integration timestep (dt) to something lower than 2 fs, maybe to 1fs or, in
some cases even 0.5 fs. Did you tried that?


And check the energies.
Which term causes the crash?


Cheers,

Ricardo.

Mark,

Thank you for your answer.

I did an energy minimization with the file em.mdp (below) and then I
did a  40 ns simulation with the same md.mdp I send before. These
two steps were done in my local cluster. After that I took the
configuration for the simulation in the bluegene and I got these
error. I notice that the step that the error occurs depends on the
number of nodes I use. I am also including the end of the min.out file.

I also tried others integrators for the energy minimization but I
always get the same error.

Thank you again,
Cíntia

There's clearly something wrong with your input, but since (1) we don't know 
what it is, (2) we don't know what you're doing, and (3) this forum isn't about 
ATB, it's pretty hard to help.


Refer to the FAQ (http://compbio.biosci.uq.edu.au/atb/index.py?tab=faq_tab) and 
seek help from whatever resources ATB provides.

This probably means that you have inserted topology section

in a part belonging to a different molecule than you intended to.
In that case move the "position_restraints" section to the right molecule



http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors#Atom_index_n_in_position_restraints_out_of_bounds

You've either #included a position restraint file in the wrong place, or you're 
specifying atoms in the position restraint file that don't correspond to the 
[moleculetype] you're trying to restrain.
