Re: [gmx-users] What's the default pbc of Gromacs trajectories?

What you are probably seeing is a visualization artifact, but you haven't described things very thoroughly. In fact, mdrun does not write broken molecules; everything should be whole. Like I said before, as soon as you start a simulation, all "broken" molecules are made whole. Such behavior is defined in the topology. If there is a bond between two atoms at a given distance, mdrun knows these atoms are bonded, even if they initially appear across the box from each other. I understand I can use trjconv to convert trr files. But usually trr files are huge and the convertion takes time. So write your output in .xtc format. Use the nstxtcout option in the .mdp file. -Justin Thanks, Lanyuan Lu > Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 17:07:30 -0400 > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: gmx-users@gromacs.org > Subject: Re: [gmx-users] What's the default pbc of Gromacs trajectories? > > > > LuLanyuan wrote: > > Hello, > > I just noticed the -pbc option for the trjconv command had changed after a version 3.3.x. > > The original -pbc inbox option were replaced by -pbc atom, -pbc mol etc. > > As I remember for early versions of Gromacs the default pbc of output trajectories was "whole", > > which means no broken molecules.

RE: [gmx-users] What's the default pbc of Gromacs trajectories?
Thanks for your reply. I just checked the online manual for .mdp. But I didn't find an option to change output pbc types. If I need the output trr file to be "whole" as that from an older version, can I set it up anywhere? I understand I can use trjconv to convert trr files. But usually trr files are huge and the convertion takes time.

LuLanyuan wrote: Hello, I just noticed the -pbc option for the trjconv command had changed after a version 3.3.x. The original -pbc inbox option were replaced by -pbc atom, -pbc mol etc. As I remember for early versions of Gromacs the default pbc of output trajectories was "whole", which means no broken molecules. But I just found it's not the case for the latest version, since I can see broken lipids for my membrane system using "ngmx". I'm just wondering what's the default pbc for the latest Gromacs version and whether there is a way to change it before MD simulations. I think you are asking two separate questions. From trjconv -h you can find the default behavior for PBC treatment, which is "none," as in, leave the coordinates alone. The PBC behavior of an MD simulation is specified in the .mdp file. Removal of PBC from "broken" starting structures should be the first step in the simulation. -Justin Thanks for your help.
