[gmx-users] Metal Ion Position

2011-12-19 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have a question on how to calculate the metal ion position in a protein in a 
simulation.
To be more more specific, I would like to make sure the metal ion stay in the 
binding site throughout the simulation, and not sure which analysis function to 
use.


I have tried g_rms, and did not work.  I'd appreciate your help.

Thanks for your help in advance.

[gmx-users] pdb2gmx

2011-06-30 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have a question about pdb2gmx. If a pdb file contains a multiple structures, 
will it average the coordinates or just pick one of the structures to convert?

Thanks for your insight.

[gmx-users] The RMSD of a metal ion

2011-06-27 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I would like to look at the positions of a metal ion in MD relative to its 
original crystal position. I tried g_rms, and I got the following message:

Fatal error :
Need = 3 points to fit

Did I use the correct command to achieve this task?

Thanks for your insight in advance.

[gmx-users] g_hbond

2011-06-16 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I am little confused about setting up the two groups in g_hbond.
1. Are the two groups corresponding to the donor (N) and the acceptor (O) atoms?

I want to measure the lifetime, angle and distance of the triplet N-HO 
hydrogen bond. Is this the triplet that the manual talks about?

Thanks for your insight.

[gmx-users] g_hbond

2011-06-16 Thread simon sham
Hi,
To help clarify my previous g_hbond question, I have these two groups in my 
index file
[ a_100_a_101]  # 100 is N, #101 is H
   100 101
[ a_200 ]    # 200 is O
   200 

when I ran g_hbond, I got Found 1 donors and 2 acceptors. The part that I 
don't quite understand is why it says 2 acceptors. Did I set up the groups 
correctly?

Again, hope this clarifies my question.
Thanks for your insight.

[gmx-users] CHARMM forcefield

2011-06-15 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have two questions about using the charmm force field. 
1. Do we still need to use the two perl scripts, convert_charmm_ to_gromacs.pl 
and fix_top_for_charmm.pl?
2. I got the following note when I tried to do energy minim. with grompp:

NOTE 1 [file topol.top]:
  The largest charge group contains 12 atoms.
  Since atoms only see each other when the centers of geometry of the charge
  groups they belong to are within the cut-off distance, too large charge
  groups can lead to serious cut-off artifacts.
  For efficiency and accuracy, charge group should consist of a few atoms.
  For all-atom force fields use: CH3, CH2, CH, NH2, NH, OH, CO2, CO, etc.

Is this a problem?

Thanks for your insight!

Hi,
I have tried to use g_rotacf to get the rotational autocorrelation plot for a 
n-h vector, and I have two questions:
1. My MD run is 20ns, but the rotacf.xvg shows only 10ns. why?

physically?

[gmx-users] oplsaa vs. charmm

2011-05-27 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have recently done two simulations on a protein at high temperature near its 
melting temperature. At the beginning I used CHARMM forcefield, and then OPLSAA 
to double check the results. There are some differences in the structures 
between the forcefield used.  I know different forcefields can give different 
results. All parameters in the simulations were the same except the forcefield. 
Is there anyway I can tell which forcefield gives more reliable results?

Thanks for the insights,

Re: [gmx-users] oplsaa vs. charmm

2011-05-27 Thread simon sham
Hi,
Once again, I appreciate all the responses.
1. To correct I just had in the previous email. I used GROMOS53ab not CHARMM. 
My apology.
2. At high temperaure, one of the helical turn in a alpha helix (3 residues) 
turns into a coil in GROMOS forcefield throughout the 20ns simulation. It was 
only slightly distorted in OPLSAA simulation in 20ns. 
3. The RMSF (backbone) for those 3 residues: 0.3nm in GROMOS vs. 0.1 nm in 
OPLSAA.

As I mentioned, the protein is near its melting temperature, therefore, I am 
not surprised to see some helix to coil transition or helical distortions. As 
Justin has suggested, I probably will try to make a longer run to see what will 
happen.

Best,

Simon

Also you never stated what RMSD/RMSFs between the two and if they are
significant to what you care to see (i.e. if you expect, say, alpha
helix to random coil transition, what changes in the unfolding do you see
that make you suspect one forcefield is better than the other?). Also if this 
is in a solvated system, the rest of the forcefield has been parameterized 
with the implicit assumption that TIPS3P (Charmm-specific) water will be used 
so make sure you have switched your water type when using CHARMM.

[gmx-users] g_helix and g_rotacf

2011-05-27 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have two questions about using g-helix and g_rotacf
On g_helix,
1. I have used the following command:
    g_helix -s md.tpr -f md.xtc -n index.ndx -b 1 -e 2
    In the index file, I have residues 10-20 as my group.
    However, when I ran the above command, I did not have the n-ahx.xvg file.
    Did I miss something here?
On g_rotacf,
    I have used the following commands to calculate the order parameters:
    trjconv -s md.tpr -f noPBC.xtc -o fit.xtc -fit rot+trans to remove the 
rotational and 
    translational motion of  my protein.
     g_rotacf -s md.tpr -f fit.xtc -d -n nh - P 2 . In the index file, it 
lists all the NH pairs 
    except the N atoms from proline. It gave order.xvg and rotacf.xvg.
    In terms of getting the correct order parameters for each NH, are the above 
2   commands correct?
    Finally, in the manual, it mentions about the triplet, i, j, k. What is the 
meaning of the 
    triplet?

Thanks for your insights!

Simon

[gmx-users] Rg

2011-05-24 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have a question of using Radius of Gyration to analyze my simulation data for 
a protein at a temperature that it would unfold.
My understanding is that when a protein in an unfolded state, it still have 
some structure and is not a random coil. So, my question is:
Will the Rg value for a unfolded protein be completely different from that of 
folded one? 

Thanks for your insight in advance.

I just installed the latest version of gromacs 4.5.4 and could run the command. 
I still have

Again, I used the following command:

[gmx-users] g_rmsf

2011-03-16 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I am just curious that in the MD community whether there is consensus on how to 
compare calculated rmsfs and expermental b-factors in x-ray. Should we use 
average value per residue or one particular atom in a residue for comparsion. 
Secondly, in NMR, people minimize a number of final calculated structures with 
energy minimization. Do people do the same thing when they average their 
structures within a certain time period with g_rmsf or g-covar.

Thanks for your insight.

[gmx-users] Advanced Simulation Analysis

2011-02-15 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have been trying to follow the tutorial posted by David van der Spoel to 
generate the order parameters at:
https://extras.csc.fi/chem/courses/gmx2007/analysis/index.html

When I ran g_rotacf, I got the following message:

Fatal error:
Number of index elements not multiple of 2, these can not be atom doublet.

Has anyone tried that tutorial?

Best,

Simon Sham

[gmx-users] Error Messages

2011-02-04 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I  run GROMACS in parallel mode.
The first two jobs that I submitted are still running. However, when I tried to 
submit the third job, and stopped for the following reason:

Fatal error:
There is no domain decomposition for 10 nodes that is compatible with the given 
box and a minimum cell size of 1.025 nm
Change the number of nodes or mdrun option -rcon or -dds or your LINCS settings
Look in the log file for details on the domain decomposition

What does the error message mean?

Thanks for your help.

Best,

Simon Sham

[gmx-users] Protein in a solvated box

2011-02-01 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have protein in a solvated box. When I used VMD to look at the system, I've 
found that the protein is not located at the center, but rather at the corner 
section.
I would like to know why.

Thanks for your insight in advance.

[gmx-users] Missing Amino Acids

2011-01-29 Thread simon sham
Hi,
1. I have a protein which is missing both the first and last amino acids in the 
sequence. Do you know any free linux softwares that can insert these missing 
amino acids?
2. Since only two amino acids are missing, one in both end, can I simply ignore 
them in simulations?

Thanks for your insight in advance.

Best,

Simon

Hi,
I wanted to test the GROMACS MPI version in my dual-processors laptop. I have 
installed openmpi 1.4.2 version. However, when I tried to configure GROMACS 
4.5.1 with --enable-mpi option, I got the following configuration problem:

checking whether the MPI cc command works... configure: error: Cannot compile 
and link MPI code with mpicc


mpicc is in my /usr/local/bin directory.

Questions:
1. Can I run GROMACS 4.5.1 in a dual-processor laptop?
2. If yes, how should I configure the software?

Thanks in advance for your insight.

[gmx-users] MPI

2010-09-24 Thread simon sham
Hi,
This is the same email that I'd sent yesterday but has not got posted?
Hi,
I have some questions about installation of GROMACS with MPI.
Our system administrator
has installed the 4.5.1 version in our system. When I tested the
software with openmpi/openmpi-1.3.3-gcc/bin/mpirun with mdrun_mpi, I
got all sorts of error message such as
opt/apps/gromacs/gromacs-4.5.1-mpi/bin/mdrun_mpi: Symbol
`ompi_mpi_byte' has different size in shared object, consider
re-linking, and many others.

My questions:
1. When I prepare my system for simulations, do I have to consistently use 
*_mpi functions in gromacs_4.5.1_mpi directory?
2. Are there any details that I need to pay attention when I configure the 
software with openmpi?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Best,

Simon Sham

Hi,
Our system system administrator configured the software with --MPI option 
according to the installation instructions. He told me there were lots of 
warning messages when he did it. My related question is that since there is 
LAM/MPI out there as well, can GROMACS 4.5 be configured with OPENMPI?
 
Thanks in advance,

[gmx-users] Adding Ions

2010-09-20 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have tried to add NaCl into my system in the 4.5.1 version to balance the 
total charge, and used OPLS forcefield.
In the topol file file, it has CL- but no NA+. However, when I ran grompp_d, it 
gave me the following error message:

Program grompp_d, VERSION 4.5.1
Source code file: toppush.c, line: 1987

Fatal error:
No such moleculetype CL-

It did not happen when I used 4.0.7 version.

I checked the top.itp file and CL- is defined.

Any clue on how to fix it?

Best,

Simon

[gmx-users] FFTW

2007-08-06 Thread simon sham
Hi,
I have tried to install GROMACS in my Slackware linux box. I have fftw 3. 
something installed separatedly. However, when I configured GROMACS, the fft3 
headers were found but not the library files. They are located in 
/usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib respectively. I also tried to configure 
with
./configure CPPFLAGS=/usr/local/lib.
But it still did not work either. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help.
