[gmx-users] updating amberff.03 files

2013-04-11 Thread Laura Kingsley

Hello Gromacs Users,


I am trying to update the contents of the top folder. I have parameters 
for a HEME residue that worked in gromacs 4.0.7, and we're now trying to 
update to gromacs 4.6.1 (long overdue), and need to migrate the 
parameters over to the new version.


I have done the following:

1. added the HEME atomtypes to the atomtypes.atp file
2. added the hydrogens to the aminoacids.hdb file
3. added the [ HEME ] block to the aminoacids.rtp file


I am running into problems in adding the dihedrals. in the old version 
we had used #define statements in the ffamber03bon.itp  file 
(ffbonded.itp in the 4.6 version) , for example:


#define heme_1   0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 
0.0 0.0
#define heme_2   0.62760 1.88280 0.0-2.51040 
0.0 0.0
#define heme_3   0.65270 1.95811 0.0-2.61082 
0.0 0.0
#define heme_4  16.52680 0.0   -16.52680 0.0 
0.0 0.0
#define heme_5  62.76000 0.0   -62.76000 0.0 
0.0 0.0



the heme_X term was defined in the ffamber03.rtp file (aminoacids.rtp 
file in ver 4.6)- for example:


 [ dihedrals ]
   HP42  CBD  CGD   O1D heme_1
   HP42  CBD  CGD   O2D heme_1
   HP41  CBD  CGD   O1D heme_1
   HP41  CBD  CGD   O2D heme_1
   HP52  CAD  CBD   HP41heme_2
   HP52  CAD  CBD   HP42heme_2
   HP52  CAD  CBD   CGD heme_3



I updated all  define heme_X lines in the ffbonded.itp file by going 
back and putting in the actual atomtypes and the corresponding dihedral 
function and parameters. For example:


I replaced
#define heme_8  11.92440 0.0   -11.92440 0.0 
0.0 0.0


with :
 FE  NO  CC  CD311.92440 0.0   -11.92440 
0.0 0.0 0.0




However, I'm getting errors from the  grompp command about the 
dihedrals. it gives:


ERROR 1 [file prot_Other_chain_B2.itp, line 520]:
  No default Proper Dih. types


ERROR 2 [file prot_Other_chain_B2.itp, line 521]:
  No default Proper Dih. types
.
.
.


I'm thinking that it can't find the Dihedral types that I added t the 
ffbonded.itp file, but I'm not sure why. One thing I've noticed is that 
in the .itp file generated by pdb2gmx the dihedral type for the heme is 
given as a 9, but in the ffbonded.itp file, I specify it as a 3. I'm not 
sure where its reading this from.


I'm hoping that this is just a simple thing that I'm missing and someone 
can help point me in the right direction.



Thanks,

- Laura

Hi Mark,

We'd like to use the Ryckaert-Bellemans dihedral types. Does 3 not work 
in the new version? Also, I took out the #define lines and replaced them 
with the actual atomtypes, because that didn't seem to work when I 
initially tried to add just the #define lines to the ffbonded.itp file.

Type 9 was added at some point to GROMACS to make coping with AMBER and

table in chapter 5. Or you could just leave your solution in the same form
as you did for the 4.0.x GROMACS.

Re: [gmx-users] updating amberff.03 files

2013-04-11 Thread Laura Kingsley

So if I'm understanding you correctly in the .rtp file under

[ HEME ]
[ dihedrals ]

I should change:
   HP42  CBD  CGD   O1D
   HP42  CBD  CGD   O2D
...

to

   HP42  CBD  CGD   O1D30.65270 1.95811 0.0 -2.61082 
0.0 0.0
   HP42  CBD  CGD   O2D30.65270 1.95811 0.0 -2.61082 
0.0 0.0



Do I need to remove these definitions from the ffbonded.itp files then?

Sorry, I was thinking of 4 and 9, which are basically interchangeable. The
default for AMBER did change to 9 at some point (see top of
aminoacids.rtp). You can use the old approach if you change the types of
just the heme dihedrals to 3 in the .itp files produced by pdb2gmx. Or you
can probably edit the heme .rtp entry to specify type 3 (plus parameters,
perhaps via the #defines).

Also, I took out the #define lines and replaced them with the actual

atomtypes, because that didn't seem to work when I initially tried to add
just the #define lines to the ffbonded.itp file.


The parameters need to go either on the lines in the .rtp that define the
interactions, or on the lines that define the dihedraltypes. Only the
latter needs the atom types (because that's how the lookup works). The
old-style #defines cannot work in ffbonded.itp, because they assume the
context of the .rtp, where the atoms are already identified.

[gmx-users] make_ndx: duplicates groups appearing in index.ndx file

2012-07-31 Thread Laura Kingsley

Hello,

I've just switched from using Gromacs version 4.0.5 to 4.5.5, and I'm 
having an issue with make_ndx. Using the old version I have a single 
group showing up for each odd residue, eg JJJ shows up once as group 
16 for example. When I use the new version on the same file I get 2 
groups appearing for residue JJJ and others. Here is the output of that 
I get from make_ndx. Is there some way I can prevent this?

[gmx-users] PMF trails off to infinity.

2012-07-02 Thread Laura Kingsley

Hello,

I am using steered MD and umbrella sampling to generate a PMF profile for 
pulling a small ligand 3 nm.  As I pull the ligand from 3A toward 0 A, the PMF 
starts  a dramatic uphill climb. This does not agree with the force profile 
which seems to level out. Any ideas about what might be going wrong here? I am 
thinking this probably isn't correct, but I don't know where I've messed up. 
Thanks! I can attach the graphs if necessary.

Basically what I'm doing is pulling a ligand toward a dummy atom. I pull 
the ligand until its COM is very close (a few angstroms) from the dummy 
atom. Could this be causing this behavior? What information would help?

email them directly to you? Let me know.

We'll probably need a better description of what you're doing, along with any
applicable figures.  It sounds to me like your ligand is crashing into something
in your system, but that's just a guess based on incomplete information.

Basically what I'm doing is pulling a ligand out of a protein towards a 
dummy atom, which has a mass of 1 and no charge. I've attached the a 
portion .mdp files for both the smd portion and the umbrella sampling. I 
know that the ligand gets very close possibly crashing into the dummy 
atom. So from what you're saying, I'm thinking  this might be the source 
of the problem.

Just for clarification, the PMF is read from right to left and the force profile
is read from left to right.


The dramatic change in the magnitude and sign of the force, coupled with the
steady increase in PMF, indicates to me that some elements of your system are
crashing into one another.  In the absence of an accompanying explanation of
what you're doing (description of system, procedure with .mdp parameters, etc)
that's the best I can offer.

Re: [gmx-users] Jarzinsky's inequality from SMD simulation

2011-10-31 Thread Laura Kingsley
There is a way to extract the PMF from sMD simulations using the 
weighted histogram analysis method (WHAM) in gromacs- Justin Lemkul's 
tutorial does a nice job of explaining it:

Hi,
  I have done some steered MD simulation and I want to construct the 
potential of mean force from these pull-profile using Jarzinsky's 
inequality. I wanted to see whether, in updated version of gromacs, 
there is any implementation of  extracting PMF from SMD simulations.

If not, can anyone suggest some guidelines how to do it.

Re: [gmx-users] Jarzinsky's inequality from SMD simulation

2011-10-31 Thread Laura Kingsley
Yes, I believe that is correct. I know that this is one way to get the 
PMF using Gromacs. I am not sure if there is a way to use the Jarzinsky 
equation explicitly to extract the PMF from just a sMD run with Gromacs.

using SMD simulation. What is does that it uses SMD to generate the 
initial configurations for different windows and then perform umbrella 
sampling separately on each windows to subsequently extract the PMF 
using WHAM based on the data set on umbrella sampling.

Hello All,

 I am looking for a very simple (step-by-step) tutorial on AFM pulling 
simulations (constant force/ constant velocity) with gromacs.


 Can someone point me to a simple tutorial to perform these 
simulations with gromacs?


Thanks,

Re: [gmx-users] Umbrella sampling windows

2011-02-15 Thread Laura Kingsley

Hello Susana,

I agree with Justin, 3000 kj/molnm2 seems pretty high. I've been using 
about a 1000kj/molnm2 force constant with window separation of about 
0.8, that seems to work well for my system.

Hi all,

I'm running umbrella sampling of an ion through a lipid bilayer with 
gromacs 4.5.1.
I used g_wham to create the histograms of the configurations within 
the umbrella sampling windows (1 Angstrom interval).
I did not get a sufficient overlap between the windows, so I was 
wodering which is the better way of increasing the sampling:  to
 include additional windows in the regions where there is no overlap 
or to increase the force constant ?
If I increase the force constant can I continue the simulation with 
the new constant or do I have to start again?

I used a force contant of 3000 kJ mol^-1 nm^-2.

Thank you in advance,

Susana
