Re: [gmx-users] trjcat skipping frames

You set ftc_3.trr to have a start time of 30 ps above, but it has not worked. Some questions that may help diagnose your issue: 1. What is the spacing of frames in your original .trr files? 2. What does gmxcheck tell you about each of your ftc_*.trr files? 3. Does passing -t0 and -timestep to trjconv in separate steps make any difference? -Justin -- Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] coarse grain dynamics
There are programs around for reconstruction of full-atomistic representations from coarse-grained representations, however. I don't know if there are any available for the GROMACS architecture. Quoting Nuno Azoia naz...@det.uminho.pt: Hi there! I never worked with coarse grain simulations, but if you used a coarse grain methodology you didn't include all the atoms, so you didn't included hydrogens. So now you can not see them, of course. They are not there. If you need to know the hydrogen bond interactions you need to do some all atoms simulation, not coarse grain.

Re: [gmx-users] coarse grain dynamics
I agree with Justin on this one. Simulations run using CG that is not optimized for reconstruction may not actually reflect the type of interactions you are looking for. The current result of this simulation may not directly correspond to a full atomistic result, so even if a reconstruction were performed you would most likely NOT be able to draw conclusions from it. Otherwise, everyone would run really fast simulations in CG, then reconstruct their systems afterward. :) Quoting Justin A. Lemkul jalem...@vt.edu: ram bio wrote: thanks, but i am using gromacs version 4.0.07 I think the general consensus thus far is you won't be able to do what you want without significant effort to reconstruct your system, and perhaps then you should question whether any tools that seek to build optimal hydrogens from CG structures are going to bias the result. Would those hydrogen bonds have actually formed in an AA simulation? Hard to tell. If you want to analyze hydrogen bonds, CG approximations are not probably sufficient. This is a good exercise in planning your analysis before conducting your simulation. You can probably estimate some sort of polar contacts from your CG representation, but not hydrogen bonds. -Justin On Tue, May 25, 2010 at 5:05 PM, Esteban Gabriel Vega Hissi egv...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, To change between representations (atomistic -- coarse grained), if you are using the MARTINI FF, you can use the modified version of Gromacs 3.3, check here: http://md.chem.rug.nl/cgmartini/index.php/tools/113-rt If you don't want to switch to full-atomistic representation, check which CG atom types are able to form hydrogen bonds and look for interactions between them. Obviously, this will be an approximation. Esteban G.

[gmx-users] g_covar g_anaeig problems
Greetings, I'm trying to use g_covar to generate a covariance matrix, followed by g_anaeig to analyze the data. The trajectory is a list of clusters generated by g_cluster in .trr format. gmxcheck seems to think that the input trajectory is fine but the cluster trajectory gives this error when gmxcheck is used: Timesteps at t=9974 don't match (2, 4) Timesteps at t=9978 don't match (4, 2) for every t += 4. g_covar crashes when I use my trajectory, giving the message: WARNING: number of atoms in tpx (730) and trajectory (730) do not match and then usually gives a segmentation fault message or a memory error.
