Re: [gmx-users] problem in energy minimization

2009-03-13 Thread Abhik Mukhopadhyay
Hi Jastin
My pdb2gmx command line is 
pdb2gmx -ignh -f xx.pdb -o xxout.pdb -p xx.top -water spce

When I created the topology it did not create a bond between those two residues 
(between which the part is missing).

Thanks for your suggestion.

 This is the last part of the minimization run
 

When you created the topology, did pdb2gmx add a bond between the residues
flanking the missing residues?  What was your pdb2gmx command line?

If you are sure that the missing residues will not influence the dynamics
(think carefully!), then read in the manual about distance restraints.  If you
have difficulties implementing these restraints, there are dozens of posts in
the list archive that should guide you in how to use them.

 Double precision normally gives you higher accuracy.
 You might need to increase your constraint accuracy, or turn
 off constraints alltogether (set constraints = none in mdp file)
 
 writing lowest energy coordinates.

[gmx-users] problem in energy minimization

2009-03-12 Thread Abhik Mukhopadhyay
Hi everyone, 
I am trying to run a simulation on a xray structure that has 15 residues 
missing. I have made the topology file accordingly. But after energy 
minimization, the residues between which the portion is missing, got connected. 
I tried an energy minimization with all-bonds constraint, but that i guess did 
not do it properly.
