Dear GROMACS users,
I only begin to work with gromacs and now have some problems with tetra
protein.
I used AMBER force field and made several changes (in ffamber.rtp,
specbond.dat, ffamber99bon.itp) to create an isopeptide bonds between
monomers.
Minimization and equilibration (NPT and NVT) were OK.
But in MD (1.2 ns) I met a problem:
__
Step 241687, time 483.374 (ps) LINCS WARNING
relative constraint deviation after LINCS:
rms nan, max inf (between atoms 2431 and 2432)
bonds that rotated more than 30 degrees:
atom 1 atom 2 angle previous, current, constraint length
2431 2432 90.00.1244 inf 0.1229
2428 2430 113.10.1010 64418817769472. 0.1010
2428 2429 105.70.1010 65196395593728. 0.1010
.
t = 483.374 ps: Water molecule starting at atom 57549 can not be settled.
Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep.

When I looked on step241686c.pdb in pymol, I found, that GLY that form one
of isopeptide bonds exploded (it's atoms were far from the water box).
I saw that a lot of people have a close problem, but usually they have it on
the first steps. Also in my case minimization and equilibration were OK. I
note some letters with the close problem, but I don't understand what to
start with in my case. I kindly ask you to give me an idea or a link to a
letter with the best solution.
Simulation is based on tutorial: Lysozyme in Water. Justin Lemkul
Thanks,
Yulian
