Hi,

I do not understand the question. Specify what force field you used, what 
parameters, what is Cl fix etc. etc and please send it back to the gmx-users

[gmx-users] Re: Can I have the mdp file?

2010-11-17 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hi,

I forward this discussion to the mailing list now because I think that it might 
be of interest to some people at least. Please find the mdp file of the GROMACS 
runs attached. To get the energies between GROMACS and CHARMM to match one has 
to do at least two things:
* make sure the molecular conformation is _exactly_ the same. I.e. the 
coordinates of the atoms should be identical (inclusive correct number of 
significant figures)
* run without cut-offs

Pär Bjelkmar

[gmx-users] Re: the charmm force field in gromacs

2010-11-10 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hello,

I forward your e-mail to the gmx-users mailing list so that other can see and 
get help from this. I don't fully understand your question but the testing went 
as this: We took small peptides (tripeptides typically) of arbitrary 
conformations of the amino acids and compared the energies of that particular 
configuration between the force field (CHARMM in this case) in GROMACS and in 
the CHARMM _program_. If they match, it of course means that the functional 
forms and parameters are correctly converted to GROMACS. For more information 
take a look in Bjelkmar et al. JCTC 2010.

Please post to this list for future correspondance.

Re: [gmx-users] Single atom charge group implementation for CHARMM27 in 4.5.2

2010-11-05 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hi,

all this has now been fixed I hope. The residues that I had missed are the ones 
my scripts not directly parse from the CHARMM ff files, i.e. they are hardcoded 
and hence I forgot to update the charge groups on them. Berk has now added an 
option of -1 to atoms added to terminals so that they become single charge 
groups as well, so that should be fine also. Let me know if I forgot something.

this sounds fishy, might be an error in the formation of the CT3. Have to look

For sure it is but you should be aware (and I think you are, since you were 
involved in the September discussion about this) that GROMACS does not treat 
charge groups as CHARMM does. See messages with subject "ARG Charmm gmx 4.5.1" 
(seems like the gmx-mailing list db is down so cannot provide you with a direct 
link).

great do that! If there're no discrepancies and you have tested it we should

[gmx-users] charmm c36 lipids

2010-10-01 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hello Sven, Drew and gmx-users,

I've gotten requests from users that want to use the c36 CHARMM lipids in 
GROMACS (see below). So I answer both of you and the rest of the community in 
this e-mail. 

I have a script that parses the top and par files of CHARMM force field(s). 
It's not the most general piece of code there is so it will not be able to 
convert files that do not follow the format the CHARMM top and par files had 
when I wrote it (version c32b1). Also, it cannot parse the toppar files (i.e. 
what's called the toppar stream files in CHARMM). I downloaded the force field 
from:
http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/download.php?filename=CHARMM_ff_params_files/toppar_lipid_all36.tgz

My script is able to parse the top_lipid_all36.rtf and par_all36_lipid.prm 
files without any errors and generate the corresponding GROMACS rtp, atp, 
bonded and nonbonded files. I'm not an CHARMM expert but if they haven't 
changed the force field considerable lately (by changing parameter definitions 
and functional forms of the force field for example) the files generated by the 
script should be the correct GROMACS translation. However, I cannot guarantee 
that all went well so I would suggest that those of you who are interested in 
this look through the files and convince yourself that the script did the job 
before running production runs with these parameters. 

I've put it on the old (and outdated) port homepage 
(http://www.dbb.su.se/User:Bjelkmar/Ffcharmm) so that those of you who are 
interested in this can access and test it. If nothing seems to be wrong after 
some of you have tested it I'm going to add it to the user contributions on 
gromacs.org.

Regards,
Pär Bjelkmar

[gmx-users] CHARMM lipids

2010-08-27 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hi Yuanyuan,

I send a copy of this discussion to gmx-users. We can continue the discussion 
there so other users can benefit from it. 

27 aug 2010 kl. 09.27 skrev yuanyuan3201003:

Ok - it's one of those lipids you're interested in. 

Actually, we discussed this in gmx-developersa few days ago:
http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-developers/2010-August/004643.html

So, the conclusion is that there might be a way to include these residues as 
they are described in CHARMM (by building them from "patches") but that 
requires code changes in GROMACS in the line of what Roland suggests. This 
might or might not happen. If you want these lipids without having the time to 
wait for such a thing to be implemented, it should be rather straightforward to 
build these lipids (i.e. make new entries in the charmm27.ff/lipids.rtp file) 
by manual "gluing" together the individual constituents. For example, in the 
top file of the CHARMM ff (version c32b1), this information is given for 
building a DPPC:
"""
!The following two residues (PALM and PCGL) and the two subsequent
!patches (EST1 and EST2) are a modular way to create DPPC.
!See the comments with EST1 and EST2 for more details. adm jr., Jul 99

[gmx-users] Does anyone know how to get the file charmm_gromacs.tar.gz?

2010-08-24 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hi,

The script I've used for the CHARMM port might be of use to you, e-mail me 
offlist if interested. It's not the greatest piece of code (in pyhon) and it is 
written to parse version c32b1. My experience is that the force field structure 
alters quite a bit between CHARMM releases. So writing a script for general 
porting of CHARMM ff to GMX is probably quite a task.

CHARMM is not supportd in version 4.0.5, you probably mean the developer

This is because we have made changes in the source code to allow for the CHARMM 
ff (we added a new dihedral type, see paper, that is causing this particular 
error). So, you have to run with the developer git version.

I would use semiisotropic Berendsen for equilibration and perhaps switch to 
Parrinello-Rahman during production but when it comes to surface tension and 
CHARMM simulations I'm afraid I don't have any experience. Guess you have to 
read the cited paper carefully to figure this out.

No, not when you have explicit solvent.

[gmx-users] Re: Charmm port files for Gromacs

2010-04-06 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Hi,

I answer to the gmx-users mailing list and I would be pleased if further 
correspondence is done there.

It's an installation issue because the CMAP directive is not recognized by 
pdb2gmx. Seems like you are running version 4.0.7 and that is then the 
explanation. You need to run with the developing version (because it is has not 
been released yet) from git to run with CHARMM. There're installation 
instructions on the gromacs webpage. 

Worth to note:
1. more information about the port is available in paper by yours 
sincerely and coworkers (Bjelkmar et al. Journal of Chemical Theory and 
Computation, 2010) 
2.  the force field format has been changed and the most recent version 
of the force field (complying to this new format) was added to the source. I.e. 
you should use those files (not the ffcharmm27* files from my homepage).

Pär Bjelkmar

This means coulombtype = PME, rcoulomb = 1.2, vdw-type = switch, rvdw-switch = 
1.0, rvdw = 1.2. 

> And by consequence what are the

This you should be able to figure out from the CHARMM ff papers. According to 
the CMAP paper (MacKerell et al. Journal of Computational Chemistry 2004) they 
used real-space (short-range) cutoff of their electrostatic calculations (using 
PME) of 8.5 Å, and the LJ were switched of between 7.5 to 8.5 Å and their 
neighbor lists had a cutoff of 10.5 Å. Remember that we performed the testing 
(comparing the energy terms) in the paper without cut-offs.

Well, the CHARMM source is not available in version 4.0.7 but in git head (it 
will be part of version 4.1) so you have to pull the latest git source. 

Having said that, there might very well be something wrong when using ACE 
termini since it has to be treated a bit specially in GROMACS (i.e. as a 
residue rather than in the termini db, as is also the case in the amber port) 
and this particular termini has not been tested by us. I don't know what 
residue/termini NAC is but nothing with that name is present in the CHARMM top 
file I'm parsing. 

To use a ACE termini, you need to have the coordinates of the ACE also in the 
input file (since it's a residue by itself and will not be generated by 
pdb2gmx) and it has to have it's own residue number. Then you select the None 
N-"termini". (Correct me somebody if I'm wrong). You could send me your input 
coordinate file if this doesn't help and I'll take a look at it.

Hmmm, seems like you have done everything correct. If you have not renamed the 
force filed files the entry in FF.dat should look like this:
ffcharmm27 CHARMM 27 all-atom force field
and don't forget to increase the number of the first line in the file either!

You could also try to run pdb2gmx with the flag -ff ffcharmm27 and see if that 
works (instead of selecting it interactively from FF.dat). Also take a look in 
the pdb2gmx output and see if any of the ffcharmm27 parameter files (I think 
ffcharmm27.rtp should be the first one read by pdb2gmx) are read.

I did the gromacs installation myself yesterday and I got it to work.

Regards,
Pär

The code supporting CHARMM is in git master (see

be included in version 4.1. Download CHARMM force filed files v1.1 from

There might be some minor changes until 4.1 but the current (CHARMM-) code (in 
git master) is tested and is working well. Once version 4.1 is released I would 
recommend you to update to that version.

[gmx-users] RE: Does Gromacs support CHARMM force field now?

2009-11-11 Thread Pär Bjelkmar

Hi,

I noticed that there're charmm27 force field files in Gromacs-4.0.5  
software package.

But charmm27 force field can't be choosed in pdb2gmx. So can I use
charmm27 force field in Gromacs now?


The files are there unofficially (that's why they're not included in  
the ff.dat file) and in an old version. You could try out the charmm27  
parameters with CMAP support by downloading the latest version of the  
source code in git master and use the latest files, which I can  
provide you with (send an e-mail to me and I'll give them to you). The  
CHARMM ff (for proteins and lipids at least) will be officially  
supported in upcoming Gromacs version 4.1.

[gmx-users] CMAP request

2009-10-20 Thread Pär Bjelkmar

Hi Supid,


We are trying to convert CHARMM force field for MTSSL (a small
molecule which is used as EPR label) into gromacs
format. But in CHARMM they have CMAP. I checked the gromacs mailing
archive and found that there is a gromacs
CVS where CMAP implementation is done.


Yes, the code is in the git master branch and is officially released  
as of version 4.1. You'd need a rtp entry of MTSSL for this to work  
with CMAP terms defined as for the amino acids (you can get the  
CHARMM27 ff files supporting CMAP from me if you send me an e-mail).  
Don't know if the CHARMM community has generalized the use of the CMAP  
term for something else than a peptide though. I mean CMAP is a  
correlation term between protein backbone phi and psi angles and MTSSL  
doesn't seem to be a peptide, right?



It will be very helpful for us if we get a copy of the code.

Re: [gmx-users] question about all atoms lipid molecule

2009-10-16 Thread Pär Bjelkmar

Hi,

I need to do an all atom simulation for dppc bilayer . You are right  
the

dppc molecule file that i have has PALM and PCGL residues.
Well, I don't know where you got the dppc molecule from, I thought you  
said you didn't have any DPPC structure with hydrogens? Anyway, I'll  
send you the current version of the charmm force field for GROMACS (in  
a separate e-mail) but I'm afraid I cannot help you in building the  
residue. I think it might be quite a lot of work if you don't know how  
CHARMM is doing it. My suggestion is that you search/ask the CHARMM  
mailing list for how DPPC is constructed.


I will like to try to set up the charmm FF for gromacs. But I dont  
have the

FF files with me, neither do i have the programs. Could you send me a
tutorial or some reference link too ( if you know of any).
What you need for running CHARMM ff in GROMACS are the files I'll send  
you and the latest version of the source code (i.e. do a git pull and  
recompile).

No, it is not available on the gromacs website yet. You can get the  
current parameter files from me if you'd like to try it out. I'm  
afraid the DPPC lipid in CHARMM is created by combining the PALM and  
PCGL residues and some patches so if you know how that works in CHARMM  
you might be able to create the DPPC residue.






No one ever said life was easy :)  CHARMM support is under  
development, you can
get the source via the git repositories, but I don't know its  
current status.
As Justin is saying, CHARMM will be supported as of version 4.1. The  
source code is there in git master branch but you need to get the ff  
files from me.




   I have been trying to search for an all atom DPPC sructure
   (including the missing Hydrogens of long chain hydrocarbons) and
   then do an all atoms md simulation on it. I havent yet found any
   such structure or any force field that could be used for it on the
   internet. Is anybody familiar with any such work ?

   Is there any all atom model for hydrocarbons which is incorporated
   in Gromacs? I am not 100 % sure about it.

   I want to do this to parametrize another force field which
   essentially uses all atom model.

[gmx-users] Re: Current status of CMAP

2009-08-10 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
The status of charmm with cmap is that it is implemented and present  
if one does git pull. The force field files of the distribution is  
outdated and should not be used. Instead interested users should  
contact me for the latest ones (different from the ones available from  
"my" webpage, http://www.dbb.su.se/User:Bjelkmar/ffcharmm). We have  
tested the code and are pretty convinced that the major parts for  
proteins are correct (0-step energies are correct compared to charmm  
in charmm). However, we're still working with it and testing termini,  
virtual sites, implicit solvent, etc. Our aim is to release it with  
gromacs 4.1 (although I have broken such "promises" before on this  
mailing list...).


Mark A: Actually I'm following the list but your suspicion is a valid  
one regarding the number of posts I have made... :D

Hi all,

I know this has been up on the list before, but I haven't been able to
get some definite answer - What's the current status of the
implementation of CHARMM-type CMAPs? I note that people (especially P.
Bjelkmar as it seems) have done a great job implementing the other
peculiarities of the CHARMM force fields, but it's still that final
piece missing. There are several references to CMAP in the source  
code,
but I guess it's not fully implemented yet. I just wonder if it will  
be

ready anytime soon?

I would be glad to help anyway I can, at least by doing some testing.

Best regards,
Jakob Wohlert

Based on the protonation states and the termini you use in pdb2gmx the

Re: [gmx-users] Re: Official charmm support

2006-12-01 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
I appreciate your suggestion! It shouldn't be hard; a quick look tells
me there are only some unconventional "tags" (compared to the standard
charmm ff defs) in this ff definition the porting script has to cope
with. I'll address the matter as soon as we're done with the port
supporting cmap. It probably won't be tested though...

Cheers,
Par Bjelkmar

[gmx-users] Official charmm support

2006-11-27 Thread Pär Bjelkmar
Dear gromacs users,

I'm a new PhD student in Erik Lindahl's group and we are currently
working on an "official" implementation of the charmm ff in gromacs
which also supports CMAP. There's still some more work needed on the
CMAP part but we intend to have a (thoroughly) tested version of the
protein lipid charmm force field completed New Yearish. The problem with
the multiple entries (see thread "CHARMM force field implementation in
Gromacs" in gmx-users) of certain (proper) dihedrals where at least one
has a multiplicity > 5 is also supported by adding a new dihedral
type. 

The testing of other system types is something we would like to
outsource on the gromacs users interested in them since we don't
normally study other systems than protein-lipid ones in the group. If
you have a specific system you would like to test in our new gromacs
version and cannot wait until it's released, please contact me and we
could arrange something.

Yours,
Pär
