yes its POPC at the top and SOL at the bottom. But the atoms names are not same that is the problem. ... I am pasting the part of the gro file from where the problem has started.

Hi, Thanks Emanuel the problem is resolved by changing the atom name in spc.itp file but question is can we do it. Will it be fine or will it create some problems in the future process.

RE: [gmx-users] number of coordinates in coordinate file (system.gro, 10019) does not match topology (topol.top, 17093)
So the problem is so simple then. You use different atom name in you gro file than in yout topology. You have to use the same atom names in both. If you are confident in your gro file change the topology to OW1, HW2 and HW3 that will solve the problem.

Re: [gmx-users] help with chromophore of a GFP
Dear Justin, there is not a unique GFP chromophore, the chromophore I am dealing with is not the same for which CHARMM parameters have been published (I am aware of CHARMM parameters for p-hydroxybenzylideneimidazolinone chromophore of green fluorescent protein published by Reuter et al 2002, of OPLS-AA parameters for DsRed fluorescent protein chromophore as a residue of [(4cis)2[(1cis)4 amino4oxobutanimidoyl]4(4hydroxybenzylidene)5oxo4,5dihydro1Himidazol1yl]acetic acid, of other parameters of other GFP chromophores), but mine is different: is of the same family of proteins, but different residues are involved and different heterocycles are generated. Since I have to recalculate parameters, I chose Amber ff because I already used it and I have tools to calculate Amber parameters, whereas I have no tools to calculate CHARMM parameters. In a preliminary assay, I tried to do the same parameterization using Gromos ff and PRODRG to obtain parameters and topology (apart from the fact that charges are probably wrong), but I experimented the same problem. I am talking not only about the problem of obtaining parameters for this particular chromophore, mine is a more general question: how to deal with a HETATM entry which is not a ligand, but it's a part of the protein chain? I tried to follow indications to make a new .rtp entry in the GROMACS HowTo's, probably my problem would be solved if I would be able to modify the aminoacids.hdb file, but this is not a simple modification of a residue (eg. an oxidised Met or a methylation of a Lys), this is a profound modification of four residues, so how can I deal with this? I had a look at the .hdb file, but hydrogens I can see are typical for amino acids residues and I cannot find any suggestions on how to treat hydrogens that are bound to a residue which is so different from classic standard residues. Has anyone made this before (I am sure yes)? Could you please give some suggestions?

[gmx-users] Reg: Validation of Protein-Protein Interaction through simulation
Dear Gromacs Users, I am new to gromacs software and currently in learning phase. Currently, I am facing a big problem. I have two proteins namely A and B.

For a hydrogen, this can be a different protonation state, or it might have had a different number in the PDB file and was rebuilt (it might for instance have been H3, and we only expected H1 H2). Note that hydrogens might have been added to the entry for the N-terminus. Remove this hydrogen or choose a different protonation state to solve it. Option -ignh will ignore all hydrogens in the input. For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors [1] From this error I understand that: * the code for H in PyMol is different from the code for H in Amber (read from aminoacids.rtp); in order to correct this error, I should add -ignh in order to ignore H in input. pdb2gmx has to be able to make sense of the atom naming. There are lots of different conventions for how to name atoms, particularly hydrogen atoms. pdb2gmx can't possibly encode the logic to convert all of those conventions. So the path of least resistance can be to ignore hydrogens and regenerate them according to the generation rules. However, you can just rename them in the input file so that pdb2gmx understands your meaning. The NSER entry in the .rtp file shows you the names pdb2gmx expects. If you edit the names of those hydrogen atoms (probably H01, H02, H03) in your input coordinate file accordingly (to H1, H2, H3), things will be fine. Be sure you don't break the required column formatting of the coordinate file! * If I add -ignh, all the H of CFY will be ignored too, and I will not be able to add them since I did not modify aminoacids.hdb * since I made calculations on CFY with H added by PyMol, probably also my codes for H will be wrong. Your atom names for CFY in the .rtp and the input coordinate file will have to match. How you want to achieve that is up to you. * If I use reduce (the Amber tool to add H, as suggested by the tutorial) to add H to my protein, it does not add H to CFY because it complaints that the residue is not in HETATM connection database (but the record CONECT is present in .pdb file). If I add H to CFY alone, I have problems with the terminals. My question is, obviously: how can I parameterize this chromophore correctly? Please give me, if possible, some step-by-step indications on what to do. I made dozens of trials, ALL with errors, and I really do not know how to do. You're very much on the right track. Your decision to use Pymol to generate main chain hydrogens rather than teach pdb2gmx how to generate CFY hydrogens had consequences that you are now dealing with. In a

[gmx-users] Re: Reg: Validation of Protein-Protein Interaction through simulation
Dear Dr. Lemkul, Many thanks for the reply and suggestion. I believe doing docking first and then going for simulation is more relevant as this will lessen the nonspecific interaction. Correct me if I am wrong. Also I would like to ask one more question. I would like to simulate gold nanoparticle and protein together. So how can i prepare the .pdb and topology file for the nanoparticle as it is composed of charged atoms? Please let me know.

So how can i prepare the .pdb and topology file for the nanoparticle as it is composed of charged atoms? Please let me know. You need a force field that can handle both protein and gold parameters. None exist by default in Gromacs, but you can introduce new force fields if needed. There are many posts about such topics in the list archive, but if you are new to Gromacs, you should probably invest significant time learning how things work and how the force fields are organized before you try implementing a custom force field. Doing so is a rather advanced task and require thorough knowledge of how everything works. -Justin On Thu, Mar 21, 2013 at 4:42 PM, Justin Lemkul [via GROMACS] ml-node+s5086n5006519...@n6.nabble.com wrote: On 3/21/13 5:11 AM, Amit wrote: Dear Gromacs Users, I am new to gromacs software and currently in learning phase.

Re: [gmx-users] help with chromophore of a GFP
Dear Mark, thank you for your message. I'm happy to be on the right track; unfortunately the end point seems to be very far away... I tried to obtain that CFY hydrogens and protein hydrogens are all matching the aminoacids.rtp entry, in order to avoid dealing with aminoacids.hdb. This is what I did: - starting from the pdb file of the protein, I removed CFY entry (prot_noCFY.pdb) - I used pdb2gmx to add H to the protein only: pdb2gmx -f prot_noCFY.pdb -o prot_noCFY_H.pdb -p topol.top - I inserted CFY_H.pdb (obtained with Pymol in a previous passage in which I added H with Pymol to the protein, including CFY) into prot_noCFY_H.pdb, obtaining prot_CFY_H.pdb. In this way, H atoms bound to regular residues have been added using Amber99SB, therefore they are compatible with this ff, and atoms of CFY (previously added with Pymol) have the same naming convention in aminoacids.rtp (that I edited using atom types, charges etc. calculated with Antechamber on this molecule coming from Pymol). Obviously, the atom numbering is not sequential: the last atom of V63 (the last regular residue before CFY) is numbered 938, the first atom of H68 (the first regular residue after CFY) is numbered 939, and the atoms of CFY66 are numbered from 1 to 70. Moreover, since the sequence of atoms in aminoacids.rtp is not the same as in the coordinates of CFY (I adapted the sequence of atoms following the format of other residues in aminoacids.rtp), the numbering of CFY in the prot_CFY_H.pdb is not ordered (1-2-3--69-70) but disordered (19-54-20-55...49-50-24-25). - At this stage, I used pdb2gmx again to create the topol.top file with all coordinates correct: pdb2gmx -f prot_CFY_H.pdb -o prot_complete.gro -p topol.top (selecting amber99sb forcefield and tip3p for water, as recommended option) This is the message error from pdb2gmx: Read 'FLUORESCENT PROTEIN', 3346 atoms Analyzing pdb file Splitting PDB chains based on TER records or changing chain id.

[gmx-users] atom numbers in top file
Dear gmx users, I have modified the top file of my input.pdb. In this modification I have deleted 2 atoms, bonds, and diedrals which these deldeted atoms are involved. The atom numbers of deleted atoms are 2 and 3. IN grompp I get a fatal error that the top file has not a consecutive numbers and doesn't start from 1. Would it be possible to solve this problem? Am I supposed to renumber the atoms and other things manually? Is there any command to renumber the top file? Or is there any other solutions? your suggestions would be appreciated.

You need to renumber the topology, and all interactions are affected. Scripting is your friend here.

Re: [gmx-users] Installing GROMACS4.6.1 on Intel MIC
Yes, you can use any kind of FFTW installation for correct results. Hardware for which FFTW provides no SIMD acceleration will have to fall back on the generic FFTW routines. (Or you might consider using MKL (or MKL's FFTW-wrapper feature), which I'd guess Intel supports on MIC. We are making MKL easier to use in 4.6.2.)

FYI: As much as Intel likes to say that you can just run MPI/MPI+OpenMP code on MIC, you will probably not be impressed with the performance (it will be *much* slower than a Xeon CPU).

Re: [gmx-users] help with chromophore of a GFP
I had problems having not used gromacs in years a couple years ago. Try running it through with the output as a pdb from pdb2gmx, cut off all headers, and you can then just compare the two files in gedit emacs or word and see differences. That might help. I routinely just keep everything in pdb format as its easier than jumping back and forth.

Hi Quentin, That's just a way of saying that something is wrong with either of the following (in order of possibility of the event): - your GPU driver is too old, hence incompatible with your CUDA version; - your GPU driver installation is broken; - your GPU is behaving in an unexpected/strange manner. Note that GF 8400 is way too old and therefore incompatible with GROMACS, you'll need at least a compute capability 2.0 card.

[gmx-users] construct the long polymer chain
Hi I have been following http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2009-March/040125.html(procedure by Justin) to construct the Polyethylene (PE). However, I can only get the PE with length 6 just like CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3. Therefore, I want to know how to obtain the long polymer chain(e.g. length=20) using this method. Any help with my appreciate. -- View this message in context: http://gromacs.5086.n6.nabble.com/construct-the-long-polymer-chain-tp5006547.html Sent from the GROMACS Users Forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! * Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.

Any help with my appreciate. The method I proposed has no limitation on length of the polymer chain. I can't fathom a reason why it would work with 6 monomers but not 20, aside from some problems with the input structure. I have not been following this thread closely, so my apologies if I've missed some critical detail along the way. -Justin -- Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] Mismatching number of PP MPI processes and GPUs per node
FYI: On your machine running OpenMP across two sockets will probably not be very efficient. Depending on the input and at how high paralleliation are you running, you could be better off with running multiple MPI ranks per GPU. This is a bit of an unexplained feature due to it being complicated to use and not fully supported (does not woth with thread-MPI), but you can essentially make multiple MPI ranks use the same GPU by passing the ID of the GPU you want to overload multiple times (and launching the correct number of MPI ranks). For instance, in your case you can try putting one MPI rank per socket, both using GPU 0 by: mpirun -np 2 -ntomp 6 mdrun_mpi -s test.tpr -deffnm test_out -nb gpu -gpu_id 00 This is briefly explained on the wiki as well: http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Acceleration_and_parallelization#Multiple_MPI_ranks_per_GPU Let us know whether you are able to get useful speedup from GPUs!

It can't be that we need to run GROMACS only on a single core so that it matches the single GPU card. Have you compiled mdrun_mpi with OpenMP threads support? Then, if you do mpirun -np 1 mdrun_mpi ? it should start one MPI process with 12 OpenMP threads, which should give you what you want. You can also manually specify the number of OpenMP threads by adding -ntomp 12 Carsten Do you have any idea what has to be done? Many thanks.

For people to provide solutions, you will need to show at least what happens when you use more than six, i.e. the errors you get, structures / topologies that are not correct etc. Catch ya, Dr. Dallas Warren Drug Discovery Biology Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Monash University 381 Royal Parade, Parkville VIC 3052 dallas.war...@monash.edu +61 3 9903 9304 - When the only tool you own is a hammer, every problem begins to resemble a nail. -Original Message- From: gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org [mailto:gmx-users- boun...@gromacs.org] On Behalf Of cqgzc Sent: Friday, 22 March 2013 1:35 PM To: gmx-users@gromacs.org Subject: [gmx-users] construct the long polymer chain Hi I have been following http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2009- March/040125.html(procedure by Justin) to construct the Polyethylene (PE).
