No, the simulation is in NVT ensemble by which I am trying to heat up the
system from room temperature to 443 K. However before heating, the system
had been equlibrated for 1 ns NVT and 2 ns NPT (1ns berendsen and 1 ns
parrinello rahman) by semi-isotropic. In equilibration everything was fine.

No it isn’t, the frozen group is not constrained.

Do you have pressure coupling turned on?
Alternatively, are the frozen coordinates part of a compound that is

Both of these could cause this.

Re: [gmx-users] Reg: Zinc ion gets displaced during Protein-Zn-Ligand simulation

2019-10-21 Thread Amit Jaiswal
Dear Jorden, Thanks for your reply. As you have suggested, i found there is a mismatch of the atom number in the zn.itp file and the .gro file. I have included few residues of .gro file for your convenience.   What i understand is that I have to rename the zn.itp file with residue no. 4265 and not 2220. Please correct me if I am wrong. And also you suggested me to "minimize the system very carefully". What do you mean by this? Should i use lesser minimisation steps ? Thanks for your time and efforts. With kind regards,Amit 391THR HG22 4260 4.897 5.356 3.136391THR HG23 4261 4.889 5.247 2.993391THR C 4262 4.600 5.071 3.244391THR OT1 4263 4.599 5.012 3.355391THR OT2 4264 4.496 5.082 3.173392ZN ZN 4265 7.278 6.612 5.838393NAD PA 4266 6.217 7.359 2.802393NAD O1A 4267 6.090 7.410 2.863393NAD O2A 4268 6.337 7.451 2.808393NAD O5B 4269 6.185 7.331 2.647393NAD C5B 4270 6.082 7.233 2.620   19.10.2019, 21:53, "Jorden Cabal" :Dear Amit,Your files look correct to me. If "2220" atom in your coordinate file isthe "Zn" atom, it should not be displaced because, from your mdp file andtopology setting you have restrained all the heavy atoms of Protein, Nadand Zn. I don't understand why it is happening. Even the restraining forceyou are taking is good enough.I suggest you to check if the atom number 2220 in the co-ordinate file(.gro file) is Zn atom or not? If it is not then you have wrongly selectedatom number for restraining. Also, if you are following the standardtutorial for energy minimization which do not restrain any atom, I suggestyou to check the position of Zn atom in structure you get after energyminimization. If the location of Zn ion is changed during the EM, then youwill need to minimize the system very carefully.Hope this will fix your issue.Thank you--Gromacs Users mailing list* Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/GMX-Users_List before posting!* Can't post?

The reference for determining periodic distances is simply the numerical

geometric center. If your group(s) is(are) non-spherical in nature, you 
need to select an appropriate atom for grompp and mdrun to compute the 
periodic distances.

Thank you very much for your reply. I would be very grateful if you can
help me with some questions regarding voids compression.
Should I run the NPT equilibration on the whole system( including
protein+membrame+solvent +*ions*) meaning, should I continue my protocol
(adding ions-->NVT equilibration with position restraints on the
protein---> and than NPT equilibration with position restraints---> NPT
equilibration without restraints) or should I run first NPT
equilibration without position restraints (and for how long?) and than
continue the protocol?


A normal protocol with restraints on your protein should work fine. 
Those voids will be gone within tens of picoseconds.

Dear Al

lI have a question regarding the non-bonded LJ interactions between two

In my system I am using a custom forcefield for the water molecules and 
Charmm36 for the protein. My intention is to change the epsilon/sigma LJ

For the sake of a simple test I use spc water model (spc.itp) to solvate the 
protein. As far as I can see in the ffnonbonded.itp there is the correct atom

gen-pairs to “no” I expected that grompp will complain that the LJ pairs for 
the water atom and protein atoms are missing. However grompp runs without any

Therefore my question is: how does Gromacs generate nonbonded interaction

Pairs refer specifically to intramolecular 1-4 interactions, so they are 
irrelevant for what you're trying to. Some force fields have special 
rules about whether or not special parameters are generated in these 
cases or omitted entirely if not listed in [pairtypes]. What you want to 
do is implement an NBFIX via the [nonbond_params] directive, which we 
list as a separate nbfix.itp file in the C36 port for GROMACS.

Yes, that's correct. The number of *hw threads* is determined from
hwloc (if it's compiled in), and the number of mdrun threads is from
OpenMP.

However, the default assumption of OpenMP is that you have the whole
node, and mdrun then concludes that pinning is OK.
