Re: Re: [gmx-users] Angle definition in g_hbond ...

2008-05-06 Thread sharada





Hello Dr. David,
Now it is clear to me about the 30 cutoff angle. In some papers the 
Donor-Hydrogen-Acceptor angle is mentioned as 120 &  anything above it till the 
linear angle (180). In the latest paper of Prof Gunsteren in Eur Biophys J on 
Melittin  there he has considered the angle to be greater than or equal to 
135 and the HB distance as smaller than .25nm. Yes the program has the 
provision to vary these values. Thank you for the clarifications.
have a good day.

I don't know where 120 comes from, it is 180-60. 60 is from Kabsch & Sander.
Anyway definitions differ between programs and the current definition is 
in line with a few recent papers. You can change it however.

Hi, 
Thank you all for the response, Yes, the backbone of my protien  does not have 
the required -Hydrogens for the program to calculate the hydrogen bonds. The 
option 6 (Mainchain +H)  worked for me. Still I am not clear as to what exactly 
are cut off angle 30 degrees and cut-off radius .35 nm mean in the program 
g_hbond. Is it considering the hydrogen bond angle of 120 +/- 30 ? In that case 
cut-off angle 60 & 120 in other versions does not make sense ... Kindly clarify 
my doubts

Hi,
Just calculate the no. of atoms according to the choice of options and 
manually. you will understand why is it giving the error.  Secondly check how 
gromacs calculate the no. of hydrogen bonds. It uses the cut-off 0.35 nm and 30 
in version 3.3.1, but in earlier version the angle cut-off was 60 in version 
3.2 and 120 in version 3.1.

 I have a very fundamental query. I am trying to obtain the backbone hydrogen

using g_hbond and selecting the Backbone groups, I am getting no hydrogen bonds 
at all . However, when I plot the hydrogen bonds for some of the structures 
picked up through the dynamics  using InsightII  I am able to see the backbone  
HBs in almost all of them.
  
 This is the command I am using:

 I haven't used this tool, but the problem looks like it is here. Are there any

use 6
