[gmx-users] compatibility of MOPAC charges with GROMACS ?

2007-05-16 Thread Daniel Rigden
Dear all

I'm trying to assemble a topology entry for S-nitrosocysteine.
Searching through the examples in the PDB revealed quite a spread of
bond lengths and angles - the N=O bond ranges from 1.2 to 1.47A, for
example.

To get more rigorously derived figures, and to calculate charges, I
thought of using MOPAC
http://www.openmopac.net/index.html
I imagine that the bond lengths and angles from MOPAC will be reliable.
My question is really how compatible the charges are with the GROMACS
topologies?  Would you have any qualms about mixing and matching?
Surely MOPAC's estimates must be better than human guesstimates or,
despite its general wonderful usefulness, PRODRG's estimates?  Are there
other programs for this?

Any thoughts welcome

Regards

Daniel

[gmx-users] topology for nitrosylated cysteine?

2007-05-02 Thread Daniel Rigden
Dear all

Does anybody, by any chance, have a Gromacs topology file for a
nitrosylated cysteine residue?  If not, is anybody aware of information
for this residue in other program packages, or will PRODRG be my best
bet?

Thanks in advance

Daniel

[gmx-users] gromacs - amber trajectory conversion - resolution

2007-04-25 Thread Daniel Rigden
Dear all

Previously I (and others) have posted with issues regarding the
conversion of gromacs trajectories (nm) to amber format (Angstrom).  You
can get g87 files form trjconv which are the same format as amber but in
the wrong units.  

It turns out there is a simple way to do these conversions - use catDCD

 http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/MDTools/catdcd/

also now integrated into VMD.  The amber formats are crd crdbox (without
and with box, respectively)

Thanks to John Stone at VMD for this.

Daniel

[gmx-users] GROMACS compilation problem

2007-04-23 Thread Daniel Rigden
Dear all

I'm trying to compile the latest GROMACS 3.3.1 on the latest Ubuntu
Linux.  Due to some fftw installation issue I used 

./configure --with-fft=fftpack
make
make install

All seemed to work fine, but any program I try to run now gives me a
crash of this kind

Can anyone help?

[gmx-users] conversion of xtc to g87 (amber) format trajectory files/bounding box problem?

2007-04-23 Thread Daniel Rigden
Hi everyone

I'd like to convert my Gromacs trajectory to an Amber format for use
with the CAVER program.  Reading round, it seems that Amber is
equivalent to the g87 format so I can use trjconv to produce the file.
This all seems to work well (the file gets read in and processed) except
for a problem with the bounding box.  

When caver works on a PDB file and generates its own box it comes out
like this
Grid: [63 82 76]
  BBox: (39.198000 6.232000 19.088000 ,89.027000 71.759000 79.758000 )

The box that gets read from the g87 trajectory looks like this
Grid: [7 9 7]
  BBox: (3.307000 0.906000 1.856000 ,8.843000 7.67 7.336000 )

From other reading there seems to be a unit issue (A vs nm) in the
Gromacs/Amber comparison.  The two boxes above are quite close to
10-fold different in all dimensions.  Is this the source of my problem?
How can I work around this?

Thanks in advance for your help

Daniel

 Could you run

 and post the result?  Apparently some new Linux distributions are

[gmx-users] published work on MD timescales/biological motions

2006-08-25 Thread Daniel Rigden
Dear all

This is a general MD question I'm afraid but I think this the quickest
way to access an informed community.
I remember seeing a while back an article that said that although MD
simulations only extend to a timescale shorter than some biological
motions, that these motions are typically quite well represented in the
MD trajectories.  I think extracting principal components/essential
dynamics was in there somewhere.
Can anyone remind me what the article was or point me to any other
literature with which to answer a referee's point that a standard length
simulation may not have been long enough to see some expected motions?

Thanks

Daniel
