Thanks Mark for the reply,
I think I have mistakenly written 30 instead of 300 for ref_t in temp 
coupling,

So if that could be the problem ?

because I have equilbrated the protein before simulation  but time is 
for 20 ps. Is that very short time period?


Acually I want to stress here that i have energy minimized the protein 
by restraining the positions as i mentioned before to not to have large 
changes in the protein structure, and then again equilibration and 
simulation was carried our by constraining all the bonds. So if that is 
ok to do ?




I remember your rationale for restraints during EM was to avoid distortions in 
the structure, and the consensus that you got was that there was nothing wrong 
with your results.  Restraints actually serve to prevent atoms from moving, thus 
defeating the purpose of EM.  Repeat the EM without restraints.  Your structure 
is likely not sufficiently energy-minimized to continue.

Note that there are further general recommendations about system
preparation here
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Steps_to_Perform_a_Simulation,
i.e. consider not going immediately to your target ensemble.

Also, your temperature-coupling is broken in your second .mdp file.

Thanks Mark for the reply,
I think I have mistakenly written 30 instead of 300 for ref_t in temp coupling,
So if that could be the problem ?

because I have equilbrated the protein before simulation  but time is for 20 
ps. Is that very short time period?

Acually I want to stress here that i have energy minimized the protein by 
restraining the positions as i mentioned before to not to have large changes in 
the protein structure, and then again equilibration and simulation was carried 
our by constraining all the bonds. So if that is ok to do ?

[gmx-users] simulation crashed because of LINCS error

2010-05-23 Thread sonali dhindwal
Hello All,

With regard to my previous post 
http://www.mail-archive.com/gmx-users@gromacs.org/msg30557.html
I have done postion restrained energy minimisation  using  POSRES.itp file 
obtained from pdb2gmx. so that there should not be any large change in the 
strucutre of the protein.
And after that I did equilbration using following mdp file

title   = protein
cpp = /usr/bin/cpp
define  = -DPOSRES
constraints = all-bonds
integrator  = md
dt  = 0.002 ; ps !
nsteps  = 1 ; total 20.0 ps.
nstcomm = 1
nstxout = 250 ; collect data every 0.5 ps
nstvout = 1000
nstfout = 0
nstlog  = 10
nstenergy   = 10
nstlist = 5
ns_type = grid
rlist   = 0.9
coulombtype = PME
rcoulomb    = 0.9
rvdw    = 1.4
fourierspacing  = 0.12
fourier_nx  = 0
fourier_ny  = 0
fourier_nz  = 0
pme_order   = 4
ewald_rtol  = 1e-5
optimize_fft    = yes
; Berendsen temperature coupling is on in two groups
Tcoupl  = V-rescale
tc-grps = Protein Non-Protein
tau_t   = 0.1 0.1 
ref_t   = 300 300  
; Pressure coupling is on
Pcoupl  = berendsen
tau_p   = 0.5
compressibility = 4.5e-5
ref_p   = 1.0
; Generate velocites is on at 300 K.
gen_vel = yes
gen_temp    = 300.0
gen_seed    = 173529

After this, I put the molecule for simulation using the following .mdp file

title   = protein
cpp = /usr/bin/cpp
constraints = all-bonds
integrator  = md
dt  = 0.002 ; ps !
nsteps  = 50 ; total 1000 ps, 1 ns.
nstcomm = 1
nstxout = 500 ; collect data every 1 ps
nstvout = 0
nstfout = 0
nstlist = 5
ns_type = grid
rlist   = 0.9
coulombtype = PME
rcoulomb    = 0.9
rvdw    = 1.4
fourierspacing  = 0.12
fourier_nx  = 0
fourier_ny  = 0
fourier_nz  = 0
pme_order   = 4
ewald_rtol  = 1e-5
optimize_fft    = yes
; Berendsen temperature coupling is on in two groups
Tcoupl  = V-rescale
tc-grps = Protein Non-Protein
tau_t   = 0.1 0.1 
ref_t   = 300 30
; Pressure coupling is on
Pcoupl  = berendsen
tau_p   = 0.5
compressibility = 4.5e-5
ref_p   = 1.0
; Generate velocites is on at 300 K.
gen_vel = yes
gen_temp    = 300.0
gen_seed    = 173529

but simulation has crashed showing the error too many Too many LINCS warnings 
(1000)
I checked previous posts, it is given that it may be due to incomplete 
equilibration or putting so many constraints.
So can you please help me in correcting it.
Thanks and regards.
