In addition to Marks e-mail and in order to close the topic I suggest you to 
exempt people from your "mentor" comments in future.

Please do not take discussions off the list. See http://www.gromacs.org/Support 
for why.

My suggested files are not inconsistent. I have only one such directive and 
there's no way to get a second one without you doing something wrong. I can't 
have any idea what's happened since, and you haven't bothered to tell me. This 
particular error occurs regularly with new users, and is discussed here 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors.

This goes to prove my point that you need more general experience of GROMACS 
before tackling this specific problem. Learn to walk before assuming you can 
run!

editconf -d 0.5 -f pentamer.pdb -o newbox.gro
genbox -cp newbox.gro -cs -o solvated.gro

You can get some more information with editconf -h and genbox -h.

Re: [gmx-users] water clusters MD

2010-05-31 Thread Oleksandr
It would be helpful if you could be more specific. For example, the standard 
procedure described in tutorial:

pdb2gmx -f input.pdb
edit conf -f conf.gro d 0.5 -o newbox.gro
genbox -cp newbox.gro -cs spc2165.gro -p topol.top -o solvated.pdb

Now, could you please illustrate how would you do this for "trivial" 
non-protein molecules?

You need neither file for editconf and genbox. See 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/File_Formats/Coordinate_File#On_the_need_for_a_.gro_file.
 You can use your existing correctly-formatted .pdb file.

If you already have a .top for the original structure, genbox will update it 
suitably with the new waters.

Look, in order to use editconf and gen box one need first to have gro and top 
files, which are generated by pdb2gmx. You say I don't need it. Ok may be 
topology file can be written by hand, but what about "gro" file?

You're using a tool for a different job. pdb2gmx builds a topology file, mostly 
by constructing a [moleculetype] from a polymer of repeating units. Your 
moleculetypes are trivial, and at least one is already present in an .itp file 
for use with #include.

editconf and genbox make a box and fill it with generic solvent. It will be 
simplest to either write your .top by hand, or adapt an existing .top, 
depending what you mean by "heavy water". Either way, you'll need some fluency 
with GROMACS workflows and file types, so do all the general tutorial material 
you can find. If you'd done so, you might have realised that pdb2gmx is not 
really the tool for the job.

[gmx-users] water clusters MD

2010-05-31 Thread Oleksandr
Hi,
I'm new user of Gromacs. There are plenty examples how to do solvation study of 
various proteins. But I'd like to "solvate" highly ordered heavy water clusters 
in box of light water. At the first step when I execute  "pdb2gmx -f 
watercluster.pdb" I get an error no matter which model is chosen:
---

Fatal error:
Atom H in residue HOH 4 not found in rtp entry with 3 atoms
             while sorting atoms. Maybe different protonation state.
             Remove this hydrogen or choose a different protonation state.
             Option -ignh will ignore all hydrogens in the input.
---

Can anybody help me how to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot
Oleksandr
