[gmx-users] gmx chi: chi.log output all rotamers always 0

2016-01-22 Thread Ebert Maximilian
hi list,

using gmx chi -s file.tpr -f file.xtc -maxchi 1 -all -g -o i try to get the 
different rotamers and transition between them per ns. however, the chi.log 
output file has for every residue only this:

Residue LYS12
Angle [   AI,   AJ,   AK,   AL]  rotamers  0  g(-)  t  g(+)

  Chi1[ 120, 122, 124, 127]0.000.000.000.00


any idea why? the xtc file is aligned and pbc was solved beforehand.

Thank you very much,

Max

Dear Ganesh,
You can also use the ATB site, and convert the all atom .itp to CHARM36 format,
or build it (charge, bond, angles, etc...) from the already present CHARMM36
atom parameters.  Check your charges if you get them from the ATB.


Any parameters from ATB will be completely incompatible with CHARMM.  Also note 
that GROMOS (united-atom) and CHARMM (all-atom) are fundamentally different so 
such conversion is actually impossible, anyway.

Use the force field CHARMM-GUI provides you. It supports everything in your
system. Our charmm36.ff port may not include everything; I extend it only when
people ask for specific parameters (as CHARMM is a huge force field, sometimes
things get missed and I rely on this kind of feedback). I'll add sphingomyelin
in the next release.

genion replaces a water molecule with an ion, so the number of waters replaced
equals the number of ions added.

[gmx-users] does gromac "mdrun" produce predicted 3d structure?

2016-01-22 Thread Arron Lacey
Hi everyone - I have used I-TASSER to generate pdb files for missense 
SNPs. I understand there are some reservations about the accuracy of SNP 
structural changes by using homology based methods alone. Can GROMACS 
off anything better? I have used


gmx mdrun 

to calculate the energy minimization of the pdb files that I-TASSER 
outputs, but I want to know if mdrun can produce the predicted 
co-ordinates of the structure due to the SNP (if there is any change 
that is)?


Also - does there a better way to embed a SNP in a wild-type pdb file 
for input to pdb2gmx?


Thanks very much.

[gmx-users] Topology for Sphingomyelin

2016-01-22 Thread Ganesh Shahane
Dear Gromacs users,

I wish to simulate a mixed lipid bilayer of which one of the lipids is
sphingomyelin (PSM, 18:1-sphingosine and 16:0-palmitic acid) using Charmm36
ff. Towards this, I constructed the bilayer using Charmm-GUI but then was
surprised to find that its topology is not present in residue topology
database of Charmm36 ff.

Does anyone has any idea about where can I get topology for PSM? Or would
it be wise to submit it to paramchem to get its topology?

Thank you in advance.

There is no really simple answer to this, but here are a few things to consider. 
 GROMACS does not predict structures.  It calculates the physical forces on the 
given configuration according to whatever instructions you provide.  Energy 
minimization is certainly insufficient to establish whether or not your mutation 
is structurally reasonable.  You need actual (extensive) MD simulations to 
determine that.  More importantly, the quality of the simulation is only as good 
as the force field you apply for the simulation.  All force fields involve 
assumptions and have some inaccuracy.  So your ability to "predict" using 
GROMACS (I suggest you don't use that term in this context) is only as good as 
(1) the rigor of the method you apply via the MD and (2) the quality of the 
force field in discriminating subtle behaviors.

Dear Gromcas users,

I have been following the Gromcas tutorial (

queries about some of the parameters in mdp file used for production run in
membrane protein tutorial.

1. Is it required to use NPT (pressure coupling) rather than NVT for the
production run if the system is already extensively equilbrated in NPT
ensemble before taking to the production stage?



To some extent, this depends on the force field.  NPT is preferred and most 
modern lipid force fields work best with this ensemble.  With NVT, you wind up 
with a constant lipid area, which can impose surface tension.  This may be bad 
for some force fields.



2. The literature suggests to set the random seed generator 'on' for a
better sampling during simulation. I have noticed that the 'gen_vel = no'
in the mdp file used for production run in the tutorial. I just wonder,
will it be safe to set the 'gen_vel=yes' during the production run using
Gromcas.



If you regenerate velocities, what was the point of prior equilibration?

Re: [gmx-users] Topology for Sphingomyelin

Hi Justin,

I have stumbled upon another problem. The sphingomyelin topology (PSM.itp)
that Charmm-GUI provides has an atomtype called NHL that is not defined by
the Charmm36 ff. I am using the latest charmm36-jun2015.ff. Could you
please look in to this?



As I said, the charmm36.ff distribution we provide is not going to work because 
parameters related to sphingolipids will not be there.  But CHARMM-GUI gives you 
an all-inclusive force field file that has everything you need.

Dear Gromacs users,

I wish to simulate a mixed lipid bilayer of which one of the lipids is
sphingomyelin (PSM, 18:1-sphingosine and 16:0-palmitic acid) using
Charmm36
ff. Towards this, I constructed the bilayer using Charmm-GUI but then was
surprised to find that its topology is not present in residue topology
database of Charmm36 ff.

Does anyone has any idea about where can I get topology for PSM? Or would
it be wise to submit it to paramchem to get its topology?



Use the force field CHARMM-GUI provides you.  It supports everything in
your system.  Our charmm36.ff port may not include everything; I extend it
only when people ask for specific parameters (as CHARMM is a huge force
field, sometimes things get missed and I rely on this kind of feedback).
I'll add sphingomyelin in the next release.
