Just a note to everyone: as the dates should make very obvious, the Feb 2016
release of the CHARMM force field is much newer than the port; you should not
expect exact agreement between these files.  I have not yet made an updated
port, but it's on my to-do list.

Many residues come from the stream files (either from residues found there or
created from patches therein).

[gmx-users] Effect of bond constraints on equilibrium densities of equilibrated liquids

2016-04-15 Thread Miguel Caro
Hi all,

I am running some test calculations with acetonitrile/water mixtures
using the GAFF topologies as available from virtualchemistry.org (by the
way, thanks for this great resource). I obtain equilibrium densities
from averages over different independent configurations after 1 ns
equilibration periods (298 K, 1 bar, 400 water molecules and 200
acetonitrile molecules at the end points). The equilibrium density I
obtain for pure acetonitrile is larger than that reported on the website
for GAFF
(http://virtualchemistry.org/molecule.php?filename=acetonitrile.zmat)
and slightly closer to the experimental value of 0.78 g/cm^3: it is
about 0.8 g/cm^3 for me compared to 0.73 g/cm^3 from the reference
calculation. I hope the graph copy-pasted below shows up on my email, to
help illustrate the issue (each data point is one configuration
equilibrated for 1ns). Going to the JCTC paper referenced on the website
(Caleman et al. JCTC 8, 61 [2012]), it appears unless I'm mistaken that
the reference results were obtained with constrained bonds (Table 1 on
that paper, "LIQ" item). However, I am allowing all bonds to vibrate in
my simulation (with appropriate small time steps).

My question is whether I can/should expect the difference in predicted
density to originate from the lifted bond constraints, or is there
something else flawed about how I'm running this simulation. I.e.,
should I run longer simulations, calculate for each configuration the
average density over the simulated trajectory instead of taking the
final density value, etc.?

Many thanks for you help,
Miguel

You also have a large number of water molecules. The outermost extent of
their shape (their "envelope") was what you observed as becoming more
spherical, once you required their representation to avoid jumps over the
duration of the trajectory.

In addition, I do not understand what is "the envelope of the diffusion",


If you do a large number of one-dimensional random walks, you have a
characteristic distribution of the results, right? Here, your water
molecules are doing a three-dimensional random walk, without jumps. The
distribution of their final displacements isn't going to resemble your
starting shape. But if you choose a representation where they jump, then
the starting shape will remain.

and does diffusion leads the box from cubic to sphere?
>

Don't confuse the representation with what happened. You told mdrun to do a
periodic simulation. If you later require the representation of the
trajectory to not have jumps over boundaries, you aren't changing the
simulation.

Re: [gmx-users] further on: very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-15 Thread Brett
Dear Mark,



My protein was a 6-identical subunit protein complex, initially each subunit 
contains a ligand. I want to see the conformational change from ligand bond to 
ligand free state, during this process there were reports that significant 
conformation change would occur


First from the initial PDB with the ligands, I delete the ligands and get the 
apo pdb, after pdb2gmx etc, I process the energy minimization, nvt 
equilibration and npt equilibration, then I start the production md. During the 
initial 6 ns production md, there were some conformation change observed, but I 
do not know whether it diffuse.


In addition, I do not understand what is "the envelope of the diffusion", and 
does diffusion leads the box from cubic to sphere?

[gmx-users] MARTINI simulation of protein-protein recognition

2016-04-15 Thread James Starlight
Dear Gromacs users!

I am looking for some tutorial for the MARTINI simulation of
protein-protein recognition dealing with the big membrane protein
simulated within the membrane and its assosiation with the small water
soluble protein. The question - is it possible in existing Martini
system conisdted of only membrane protein solvated in membrane with
water to
i) increase box size on Z
ii)add some water
iii) put another water soluble protein in new space (on the distance
of the initial membrane protein complex)
iv) edit topology of new system and run new md

assuming that i,ii and iv are trivial the problem here is the iii step :-)

or alternatively if I would like to run new simulation with those 2
proteins (in the unbound form) how I can prepare such complex system
consisted of big protein in membrane plus water soluble protein
unbound from it?

Thanks!

You've simulated a bunch of molecules that diffuse. What shape would you
expect for the envelope of the diffusion? How would it vary over time?

[gmx-users] further on: very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-15 Thread Brett
Dear All,

By xmgrace I have checked the xmgrace, I find the spike was between -8.245e+06 
and -8.225e+06, is the spike massive or not?


In addition, by
gmx trjconv -f ma_0_1.trr -s md_0_1.tpr -o 6000pswithwater.pdb --pbc nojump 
-dump 6000,


I got the 6 ns with water pdb and I have checked the pdb (with water box), I 
find the resi 366-367 were not disconnected!


However, by gmx editconf, the original water box was in cubic, after "gmx 
trjconv -f ma_0_1.trr -s md_0_1.tpr -o 6000pswithwater.pdb --pbc nojump -dump 
6000", the cubic water box was replaced by a rough sphere water box with the 
protein roughly in the center. Will you please explain why the cubic water box 
was replaced by the round sphere water box? Anything wrong I have made?


Further, by visual check if in a production MD I did not see residue 
disconnection caused by "Periodic_Boundary_Conditions", can we guarantee no 
minor disconnection occurred during the md (or significant bond length variance 
unobservable by the naked eye with pymol) if we did not process the trjconv 
correction step?


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

Re: [gmx-users] Osmotic pressure

2016-04-15 Thread gozde ergin
Justin thank you very much for your quick respond. These values that I get, for 
ideal solution and in Roux paper are shown below ;

Osmotic pressure for 3M : My result 156 bar
  Ideal solution 150 bar
  Roux study ~155 bar

Osmotic pressure for 4M : My result 194 bar
  Ideal solution 200 bar
  Roux study ~220 bar

Osmotic pressure for 5M : My result 251 bar
  Ideal solution 250 bar
  Roux study ~300 bar

Yes I divide in two for two walls. Ok I rerun the simulation with these new 
settings.

Thanks a lot.

Dear all,

I simulate the NaCl solution to estimate the osmotic pressure. My salt 
concentrations are 3,4 and 5M. I apply flat-bottom restraint to the molecules.
I use CHARMM36 ff with NBFIX correction.

After the simulation I extract the z-coordinates of restraint ions and use the 
equation P = F/A , F= k(zi-zwall), A=area to estimate the osmotic pressure.
Actually I try to get the similar results as Lou&Roux 2010 study.

However my osmotic pressure results are on the line of ideal solution osmotic 
pressure as shown equation in below;

P = cRT (Van’t Hoff equation)

but not the similar result with experiments.



What values do you actually get?  How do they compare with the values from the 
Roux paper?  Are you remembering to divide by 2*area in your calculation (since 
you have two walls)?



Is there anyone here that get the same trend as me for osmotic pressure 
calculation? Or is there something that I miss?


Here is my .mdp file;

define   = -DPOSRES
integrator   = md
dt   = 0.002
nsteps   = 250   ;
; Output control
nstxout  = 2000
nstvout  = 2000
nstlog   = 2000
nstenergy= 2000
; Bond parameters
continuation = no;
constraint_algorithm = shake ; h
constraints  = all-bonds ; a
shake_tol= 0.0001
; Neighborsearching
ns_type = grid  ;
nstlist = 5 ;
rlist   = 1.1   ;
rcoulomb= 1.1   ;
rvdw= 1.1   ;


These nonbonded settings are wrong.  The values for CHARMM36 are well 
established and you should not deviate from them.

Re: [gmx-users] pdb2gmx disulfide bond in dimer

thank you Justin, but I can't understand how to solve my  problem.
when pdb2gmx links the 2 CYS, the resulting .gro file shows a unique chain
because  N- and C- termini of 2 chains are linked.



As it should.  The two chains have to be merged into a single [moleculetype] 
definition for that bond to be created.  The merging process isn't causing 
stability; some other aspect of your structure is.  The link I provided includes 
all the usual diagnostic information.  Unless you go through those steps (and 
have a look through some of the other million or so posts regarding the same 
issue) and provide some more useful details about what you observe, there's 
little anyone else can suggest.

Dear all,
I try to perform a MD simulation of a covalent dimer with gromacs 4.5.4.
I do:
pdb2gmx -f prot.pdb -chainsep ter
and the programme generates a .gro file with disulfide bond.
but when i want to minimize the system, there is an error:

There were 2 inconsistent shifts. Check your topology
Warning: 1-4 interaction between 45 and 387 at distance 8.995 which is larger

if I try to simulate the 2 chains separatly, there is any error.
What can i do?

beyond that.

Some comments in the charmm-format files refer to

toppar/stream/lipid/toppar_all36_lipid_cholesterol.str

Many residues come from the stream files (either from residues found there or 
created from patches therein).

Hi,

Also you need suitable energy groups. Best done in a rerun after the
simulation.

[gmx-users] Osmotic pressure

2016-04-15 Thread gozde ergin
Dear all,

I simulate the NaCl solution to estimate the osmotic pressure. My salt 
concentrations are 3,4 and 5M. I apply flat-bottom restraint to the molecules.
I use CHARMM36 ff with NBFIX correction.

After the simulation I extract the z-coordinates of restraint ions and use the 
equation P = F/A , F= k(zi-zwall), A=area to estimate the osmotic pressure.
Actually I try to get the similar results as Lou&Roux 2010 study.

However my osmotic pressure results are on the line of ideal solution osmotic 
pressure as shown equation in below; 

P = cRT (Van’t Hoff equation) 

but not the similar result with experiments. 

Is there anyone here that get the same trend as me for osmotic pressure 
calculation? Or is there something that I miss?
