Re: [gmx-users] PROTEIN FOLDING
Depends. If you're interested in local folding and there are SS motifs in the region you're interested, then yes. If not, no. In terms of overall folding of the entire protein, yes it surely can be an important analysis.

Re: [gmx-users] Dynamic selection of a shell in a trajectory
Hi, Dynamic selections are implemented, but only for a small subset of GROMACS tools. You can use gmx select to form the appropriate index group, but you'd have to write some other script to get trjconv to pull out individual frames with the matching selection, and then concatenate them into a trajectory file (and decide how you want to deal with the fact that frames may now differ in the number of atoms).

Re: [gmx-users] PROTEIN FOLDING
"You can use various supporting tools from R language to debug your trajectory but most third party software support NAMD and charmm format. You can use VMD to convert the trajectory to dcd and use R language based packages to read your trajectory" What? How is this useful or helpful? At most it confuses the OP even more. Also, the clustering analysis is unlikely to be what you want or need at this stage. Why overcomplicate? One of the simplest ways to check that there are conformational changes on a given set of atoms is by doing a RMSD analysis using the folded structure as the reference. The RMSD is somewhat degenerate, but should suffice for this purpose. You can use an index file to restrict the RMSD analysis to a particular subset of your system (the docking site, for example). You could look at the radius of gyration as well, Rg, as Aman Deep also suggests. This can either be calculated on a subset of atoms or on the entire protein. The latter could potentially be used to compare with the experimental reference obtained by SAXS, for example. Or you could calculate the SAXS curve and get a better understanding of size and shape differences between your protein and the reference, but that's more advanced stuff.

Re: [gmx-users] Grompp error : Incorrect number of parameters
Hi, The large energy means your topology is probably broken. Please use a tool that will write an .itp file for you (e.g. SwissParam?), or next time get your topology for your ligand working before you try to use it in a complex. Even get a simple form of the ligand working first, to teach yourself the process of writing the coordinate file. The more new things you try to do at once, the less likely you are to fail in ways that you can help yourself to fix.

Re: [gmx-users] Measuring distance to the nearest image
Hi, From its help: "gmx distance calculates distances between pairs of positions as a function of time. Each selection specifies an independent set of distances to calculate. Each selection should consist of pairs of positions, and the distances are computed between positions 1-2, 3-4, etc." You've got it computing distances within each group, which is why they have little or no variation and have the length of a C-H bond and maybe a C-C bond. Per "gmx help selections examples", you might try something like "gmx distance -select 'com of HYP1 plus com of GLPInt1' -s -n" I'll add an explicit tip to the help text - you're not the first person to assume that giving it two selection groups gets some kind of distance between the groups.

Re: [gmx-users] Dynamic selection of a shell in a trajectory
Very unlikely and/or impractical. The water selections/analyses you can do with gromacs' native tools are unfortunately rather limited. From personal experience I'd suggest trying MDAnalysis or something similar, because it gives you the freedom to code your our analysis routine with minimal effort in terms of programming. Plus it allows dynamic selections, which I never found truly possible with gromacs' native tools.

Re: [gmx-users] Grompp error : Incorrect number of parameters
Dear Alex I have tried that but the system collapse. For em_real.mdp option,I get message stating Energy minimization has stopped, but the forces have not converged to the requested precision Fmax < 1000 (which may not be possible for your system). It stopped because the algorithm tried to make a new step whose size was too small, or there was no change in the energy since last step. Either way, we regard the minimization as converged to within the available machine precision, given your starting configuration and EM parameters. Double precision normally gives you higher accuracy, but this is often not needed for preparing to run molecular dynamics. You might need to increase your constraint accuracy, or turn off constraints altogether (set constraints = none in mdp file) writing lowest energy coordinates. Back Off! I just backed up em.gro to ./#em.gro.1# Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 15 steps, but did not reach the requested Fmax < 1000. Potential Energy = 3.9192084e+11 Maximum force = 1.3457252e+14 on atom 629 Norm of force = 1.0629695e+12 Simulation ended prematurely, no performance report will be written.

Re: [gmx-users] Measuring distance to the nearest image
Hi Mark, I think with a combined project list as long as my arm and going between VMD and Gromacs that the fault lies with me. A misunderstanding with the decimal point. However, I am a little confused over the output and despite reading the help I am still none the wiser. I go on to select two groups: [ HYP1 ] ← part of the side chain of a hydroxyproline 4669 4670 4672 4673 4676 4677 [ GLPInt1 ] ← 563 564 566 567 570 571 574 576 I assume the average absolute distance between the two groups will be the same regardless of which one you take your measurement (as x1, y1, z1) from. My output looks like: @title "Average distance" @xaxis label "Time (ps)" @yaxis label "Distance (nm)" @TYPE xy @ view 0.15, 0.15, 0.75, 0.85 @ legend on @ legend box on @ legend loctype view @ legend 0.78, 0.8 @ legend length 2 @ s0 legend "HYP1" @ s1 legend "GLPInt1" 1.0000.1090.159 1.2000.1090.159 1.4000.1090.160 Reflected in the on-screen output (I have just used a tiny sample size to run this very quickly, the standard deviation in the larger sample size is much different) Analyzed 501 frames, last time 100.200 HYP1: Number of samples: 1503 Average distance: 0.10900 nm Standard deviation: 0.0 nm GLPInt1: Number of samples: 2004 Average distance: 0.15911 nm Standard deviation: 0.05431 nm I want the distance between HYP1 and GLPInt1. Why the two measurements? Clearly there is something I do not understand about the gmx distance command. Really hope you can clear this up. Thanks again!

Re: [gmx-users] Grompp error : Incorrect number of parameters
The description for the Urey-Bradley potential (assuming two quadratic terms qualify for the proud term "potential") is described in the user manual, and the constants' order of appearance in the itp file is given in the Table 5.5 of the manual. If you have a basic quadratic angular term (first term in U-B with two constants) from elsewhere and you want to use it in the U-B format, it is an absolutely trivial task. All you have to do is set the U-B distance-dependent energy component to zero. Alex On 12/20/2017 12:05 AM, RAHUL SURESH wrote: Hi Thank you Mark.

[gmx-users] Dynamic selection of a shell in a trajectory
Dear all, I'm performing a dynamic of a metal ion in a box consisting of a solvent, where the metal is coordinated by six solvent molecules. I'm writing here because I want to reduce the trajectory including the intire box to a trajectory containing only the first coordination shell of the metal, e.g. say to the system "consider a sphere of 8 Angstroms radius from the metal and pick up any residue which has a least one atom inside this sphere". In addition, it would be nice to perform a sort of "dynamic selection", e.g. if one residue exits and another one enters the sphere I want the selection to keep the first one and then the second. Is this possible with Gromacs or do I need to use other tools? I've tryed to understand if this was possible with trjconv or gmx select, but I think they're not the right utilities and I couldn't find anyone with this problem in a web research. I would be gratefull if you can help me. Thank you in advance for your answer.
