I know the tutorial system is robust enough that it won't matter.  That is not 
necessarily true for whatever other system you come up with.  Be careful when 
extrapolating something that works in a tutorial with something that is 
untested.  The general logic is the same (you need to equilibrate for a little 
while first), but you have to think a bit about the proper settings.  There is 
also no guarantee that the length of time I set in the tutorial simulation 
processes (equilibration, SMD, and umbrella sampling) will necessarily be 
sufficient for whatever you're doing.

The only way to find them is to look.  I have no special advice for this.

Then clearly something was broken across PBC, which means there is no real 
problem.

-JustinIn case that something was broken across PBC, why there is no real 
problem? Do you mean molecule breaking will not affect the simulation result?

[gmx-users] error in umbralla sampling step 6

2013-10-26 Thread sunyeping
Dear gromacs user,
I am doing umbralla sampling on a protein-ligand system following the gromacs 
umbralla sampling turial. It seems that the first five steps go well, and I 
select 23 gro files as the starting configurations of adjacent umbrella 
sampling windows. However when I use grompp to generate tpr files for these 
individual configurations as following: 
grompp -f npt_umbrella.mdp -c conf86.gro -p topol.top -n index.ndx -o 
npt86.tprI get the following notes, warning and error information:NOTE 1 [file 
npt_umbrella.mdp]:
  nstcomm < nstcalcenergy defeats the purpose of nstcalcenergy, setting
  nstcomm to nstcalcenergy
NOTE 2 [file npt_umbrella.mdp]:
  leapfrog does not yet support Nose-Hoover chains, nhchainlength reset to 1

WARNING 1 [file npt_umbrella.mdp]:
  You are generating velocities so I am assuming you are equilibrating a
  system. You are using Parrinello-Rahman pressure coupling, but this can
  be unstable for equilibration. If your system crashes, try equilibrating
  first with Berendsen pressure coupling. If you are not equilibrating the
  system, you can probably ignore this warning.
...Largest charge group radii for Van der Waals: 16.306, 16.297 nm
Largest charge group radii for Coulomb:   16.306, 16.297 nm

WARNING 2 [file npt_umbrella.mdp]:
  The sum of the two largest charge group radii (32.603355) is larger than
  rlist (1.40)
Fatal error:
Too many warnings (2), grompp terminated.
If you are sure all warnings are harmless, use the -maxwarn option.
Discussion
 aout warring 2 on the mail-list points out that the error that cause 
warning 2 will impact the results and lead to artifacts. I cann't 
understand why the warning occurs here, because it didn't appear when I 
use grompp in the my previous steps.  Could you explain why it occur in this 
step? Will it really affect umbralla sampling? Can I use the -maxwarn option to 
ignore it?

[gmx-users] The box of umbrella sampling

2013-10-20 Thread sunyeping
Dear gromacs users,
    I am studying gromacs umbralla sampling. I want to pull a lingand out of 
its binding pocket in a protein. By observing the ligand-protein complex, I 
think I should pull the ligand along a direction which is not parallel to the 
x, y or z axis so as to prevent the ligand colliding with the atoms around the 
the pocket. So I have to define a box whose long axis is parallel to the 
pulling direction. Could anyone explain to me that how to define the box? 
Thanks in advance!

[gmx-users] genion doesn't recognize SOL in top file

2013-10-17 Thread sunyeping
Dear Gromacs users,
I am trying to add ions to my system using:genion -s ions.tpr -o solv_ions.gro 
-p topol.top -pname NA -nname CL -np 8

but it returns a error message saying:

Fatal error:
No line with moleculetype 'SOL' found the [ molecules ] section of file 
'topol.top'

I checked the topol.top file, but SOL is indeed under [ molecules ] section:

[ molecules ]
; Compound#mols
Protein_chain_A 1
Protein_chain_B 1
DRG 1
SOL 86574

I know it problem has been disscussed here before, but I cann't fix it out with 
the avialable information. Could you help me with it?

Thanks in advance.

Dear gromacs users,
 
I am study the tutorial for protein-ligand complex system (gromacs tutorial 5: 
T4 lysozyme in complex with JZ4). The tutorial use PRODRG to produce the 
topology file. The author state that he  immediately notice three things that 
are wrong with this topology, which include charge group, H atom charge, etc. 
     And the author then reconstructed a topology file.  I don't understand how 
the charge group and charge of individual atom are correctly assigned. Could 
you explain it to me? 
 
Thanks.
