[gmx-users] Topology of Graphite Oxide

2013-03-07 Thread zhhxu
Hi  users:

I want to run a simulation of adsorption of protein on graphite oxide(GO) which 
is oxidized at random and
is near 80% coverage by hydroxyl and epoxyl group.
My first question is how to generate a topology filefor GO. Previous to search 
solution to this problem in
this forum, I had tried to make a topology for GO use g_x2top with command:
g_x2top -f input.pdb -nopbc -r outputname -o outputname.
But g_x2top did not work fine(fine for prestine graphite) and gave error 
messages like Can not find forcefield for atom .. 

My second also is about definition of improper dihedral in opls-aa. Whether it 
is validate to assign a improper
dihedral for a central sp2 carbon atom with three other bonded atoms no matter 
of what is type of  other
three atom?  I have gotten (mentioned above) a topology file of pristine 
graphite for opls-aa with
 g_x2top(the command is similar to above),  but the topology file did not 
include any improper dihedral.

  I will appreciated you for giving any advice.

   
sincerely

Hi Nilesh,

So far I have not been able to figure out the problem. I also ran some new
simulations with Gromacs 4.6 for 100ps of EMIMDCA and everything worked
fine. I looked into the code, but was not able to detect the problem that
causes the strange behavior you are observing. Can you update your Gromacs
version to 4.6.1 and try again?

   Hello,
  
   I am using g_current for first time. Now I am running additional
  simulation and I
   will save trajectory at 2 fs.
  
   Is it possible to calculate contribution of rotational and
 translation to
  dipole
   moment simultaneously with the simulation instead of saving the
 trajectory
  at
   each 2fs?
  
 
  Hi,
 
   This is one of my majors on my to do list, but currently not possible.
  I
  think a
  saving frequency of 0.05 ps should be fine.

Hi,
   
 Have you done a similar analysis with another IL system or is it
the first time you use g_current? Currently I am not able to
figure
 out what the problem is. However 2ps saving interval is quite long for
such a
 kind of analysis. A zero value of the translational dipole moment hints to
neutral
 molecules which should not be the case for your system. What is written in
the
 output of mj.xvg. Is filled with zeros?

  At least the segfault is solved. However, the zero output of

Dear all
   I have two discrete residues which are being connected together by sulfur 
atom in each residue. I need to find how the density varies around the residues

for that I created a group by selecting the two sulfur atoms using the index

Free energy calculations involving interactions between  
macromolecules are typically done with umbrella sampling.  A  
tutorial is linked from gromacs.org, otherwise refer to the  
literature for suggested methodology.


The challenge is likely to find a proper reaction coordinate and  
assure that you sample sufficiently along it. You may end up wasting a  
lot of computer time if you make a poor choice.

Anyhow, thanks for reporting the issue.


There is no liblapack.so with ATLAS? Anyway, I tried to explain the issues 
more clearly below. I am not going to insist but it would be nice to be 
able to use the ATLAS library I guess... :)


The following library files are available with ATLAS and your cmake

libatlas.a
libcblas.a
libf77blas.a
liblapack.a
libptcblas.a
libptf77blas.a
libsatlas.so
libtatlas.so

At: http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/ac-archive/acx_blas.html
It says that you will have to use the same FORTRAN compiler to link 
ATLAS. However your checker is using gcc to check linking.


So the first bug is because the checker is trying to link f77blas 
with gcc. This requires -lgfortran. You can see many related information 
if you do a web search for undefined reference to `_gfortran_st_write'). 
Otherwise you should use gfortran for the tests.


Therefore it is impossible for gromacs to use ATLAS library.


The second problem is because f77blas;atlas should include cblas for 
linking. Again, at the example which is present at: 
http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/ac-archive/acx_blas.html

BLAS_LIBS=-lcblas -lf77blas -latlas is used.

Therefore it is again impossible to find ATLAS library even when it 
exists.




The third problem is ambiguity in the manual at:
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Installation_Instructions#4.1._Configuring_with_CMake
It says: A key thing to consider here is the setting of 
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. However it is not clear what 'setting' means in 
here. (Being unfamiliar with cmake, I defaulted to setting it in the 
environment which was wrong)


Later I found out CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX can only be used as a cmake 
variable (not set in environment). But DESTDIR should be set for setting 
installation prefix instead ?

See:
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.8/cmake.html#variable%3aCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ#Does_CMake.27s_.22make_install.22_support_DESTDIR.3F



I hope the problems in ATLAS detection and documentation would be fixed. 
Thanks for your interest in these small issues.

Hi,

Note that the linear algebra in Gromacs is limited to eigenvalue solving in two 
analysis tools,
the MD engine does not use any (large) linear algebra.
So linear algebra library performance is irrelevant, except for the cases where 
users
would want to repeated uses one of the two tools with large systems.
Even then, our built-in code is not bad.

[gmx-users] Hamiltonian replica exchange umbrella sampling with gmx 4.6

2013-03-07 Thread Joakim Jämbeck
Dear gmx-users,

I am currently trying to runt Hamiltonian replica exchange umbrella sampling in 
hope to do some better sampling.

I have generated a number of tpr-files along my reaction coordinate and they 
all run fine in independent simulations. The issue comes when I would like the 
replica exchange to start.

The following line is used to initiate the exchange:

mdrun_mpi -replex 1000 -s md -pf pullf -px pullx -multi 40 -maxh 0.5

All replicas have the same temperature and the following error is what I face 
seconds after submitting the job:

The properties of the 40 systems are all the same, there is nothing to exchange
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

I could simply change the temperature between the replicas by 0.001 K and it 
would run I think. But that is not very elegant.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Joakim--

Dear all,

When calculation the RDF, it asks:

Select a reference group and 1 group
Group 0 ( System) has  1600 elements
Group 1 (  Other) has  1600 elements
Group 2 ( PE) has  1600 elements
Group 3 (   a_1-1600) has  1600 elements

My question is what's the difference between reference group and 1 group, how 
the RDF calculated for them.

Thank you very much.

Re: [gmx-users] Hamiltonian replica exchange umbrella sampling with gmx 4.6

2013-03-07 Thread Michael Shirts
Hi, Joakim-

Hamiltonian exchange only should work if there is a lambda coupling
parameter that defines the potential at each state.  You need to
define your pulling potential so that the coupling-lambda parameter
can be used to define the different pulling location centers along
your trajectory.  Does this make it clearer?

I guess Evren assumed that GROMACS has an explicit dependency on an
external linear algebra library.

To be concrete, you can simply use the GROMACS internal linear algebra code
by setting -DGMX_EXTERNAL_BLAS=OFF -DGMX_EXTERNAL_LAPACK=OFF.

Hi,

I was just trying to say that what linear algebra library you use for

But having said that, the choice of library should not complicate the
configure stage of Gromacs.



I guess Evren assumed that GROMACS has an explicit dependency on an
external linear algebra library.

To be concrete, you can simply use the GROMACS internal linear algebra code
by setting -DGMX_EXTERNAL_BLAS=OFF -DGMX_EXTERNAL_LAPACK=OFF.

PS: This issue sounds like a valid reason to consider switching external
BLAS/LAPACK off by default.


I actually saw that the configure said it will use internal blas/lapack. I 
also understand that the blas/lapack is not very relevant for gromacs. But 
none of these mean there is not a problem. (which is probably easy to fix 
anyway).


In either case, I reported it so developers can be informed and I dont 
mind if it is fixed or not. But thanks for the feedback and information 
given.


Thanks

[gmx-users] electron desnity

2013-03-07 Thread George Patargias
Hello

In the g_density manual it is mentioned that

When calculating electron densities, atomnames are used instead of types,
this is bad

So what should be included in the electrons.dat file. The unique atomtypes
of the group or all the atomnames of this group?

Thanks in advance.

Re: [gmx-users] Small bug with -pi in g_mindist?

2013-03-07 Thread David van der Spoel

On 2013-03-07 19:02, Reid Van Lehn wrote:

Hi users,

I was experimenting with using a hexagonal unit cell for a lipid membrane
system by building a box with vectors A A C (i.e. two equivalent vectors in
the xy plane and distinct z vector) and angles 90 90 60, which is correctly
represented as hexagonal after converting with trjconv. I equilibrated this
box and a system with the same number of lipids and water molecules but in
a rectangular box. I confirmed that after equilibration the area per lipid
for each system is the same, and after  visualization confirmed that the
hexagonal system and rectangular system occupied about the same area (of
course subject to fluctuations).

For a hexagon and square of equivalent area, the minimum distance between
periodic images should be 1/sqrt( sin 60 degrees) = ~1.075 times larger for
the hexagon than in the square case if I worked out the geometry correctly.
To test to make sure I had the correct new minimum distance, I ran
g_mindist -pi with both a single atom and a single water molecule from the
simulation box after resizing the Z axis to a large value, restricting the
minimum distance between periodic images to only the xy plane.
Surprisingly, the result came out as smaller than the equivalent minimum
distance in the rectangular box, and was equal to the box vector B. Since
in GMX box vectors are stored in the .gro file in a 3x3 matrix, the
box[YY][YY] vector for an ab angle of 60 degrees was (correctly) equal to
sin 60 * the A vector. However, the correct periodic distance should have
been the A  vector, which again was correctly ~1.075 * the box vector in
the rectangular box by comparing the .gro files.

I believe that this is a small bug in g_mindist, and found the source: on
lines 71 and 92 of gmx_mindist.c (version 4.6), the initial minimum
distance is set based on the minimum of the box[XX][XX], box[YY][YY], and
box[ZZ][ZZ] vectors. I think this is fine for rectangular boxes, but fails
for triclinic boxes with box angles differing from 90 degrees. In my
particular case of a hexagonal xy plane, the box[YY][YY] vector is shorter
than the box[XX][XX] vector by a factor of sin 60, but this is not actual
the shortest distance. Explicitly printing out the distances calculated
between periodic images in the current version of the code for both a
single atom and a water molecule confirms that the minimum distance is the
box[XX][XX] vector.


Thanks for reporting and giving a solution.

http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/1183



A fix for this was substituting norm(box[0]), norm(box[1]), and
norm(box[2]) for the box[XX][XX] etc. vectors in line 71, as then the
minimum was properly set.

I realize this is a bug that is unlikely to affect many users, but given
the prevalence of non-rectangular boxes and the observation of previous
complaints about mindist in the user list, I thought it would be good to
report.

Please let me know if I made an error anywhere!

Best,
Reid

3. mdrun command
 4. Complete .mdp file

 Bad idea.  Nonbonded cutoffs are an intrinsic part of the force field.
 Changing
 them will actually increase your likelihood of failure.

  I have changed all the parameteres in the mdp file and I get a smaller
 value of particles in the message error, but still a crash.
 The box size has also no effect on the message error.
 I have checked the starting structure and everything is fine. Mutating
 that

 study the effect in the Asn-- Lys mutation.

 Any hint to solve the error?


 If EM stops at the first step, there's usually something
 catastrophically
 wrong
 with the starting configuration.  If you've decreased the value of
 emstep,
 there's little else that will account for such behavior.

Hi  users:

I want to run a simulation of adsorption of protein on graphite oxide(GO) which

My first question is how to generate a topology filefor GO. Previous to search 
solution to this problem in
this forum, I had tried to make a topology for GO use g_x2top with command:
g_x2top -f input.pdb -nopbc -r outputname -o outputname.
But g_x2top did not work fine(fine for prestine graphite) and gave error messages like 
Can not find forcefield for atom .. 



The .n2t files provided with the (few) force fields in Gromacs are rather 
inflexible, so you will probably need to modify them to suit your needs.



My second also is about definition of improper dihedral in opls-aa. Whether it 
is validate to assign a improper
dihedral for a central sp2 carbon atom with three other bonded atoms no matter 
of what is type of  other
three atom?  I have gotten (mentioned above) a topology file of pristine 
graphite for opls-aa with
  g_x2top(the command is similar to above),  but the topology file did not 
include any improper dihedral.



g_x2top doesn't write impropers, so you have to manually add them if needed. 
Assignment of proper parameters should be done based on analogous functional 
groups present in the force field or by a suitable derivation protocol.

Terminal oxygens are renamed according to the specifications in the relevant 
.c.tdb file.  A terminal residue has no atom named O since the name is 
changed.  If only one bond is missing, it's probably easiest to just manually 
add it to the topology, otherwise remove the offending line in specbond.dat, see 
how the terminal oxygens are renamed, and then try using the relevant atom 
name(s) for creating your bonds.  If that approach doesn't work, then the only 
option is manual addition to the topology.

No, the last entries are the multiplicity, not the function type (which is the

improper dihedrals, not proper dihedrals.  Maybe you've added those lines in the

There is a very primitive example of what the electrons.dat file should look

I would suggest you to look if this angle is not defined somewhere else in

The 2 and 6 at the end of the line are the multiplicity, so they don't need

Dear Justin,



With 4.5.5 the jobs have completed. I am going to repeat them with 4.6.1
If you find something weird in the mdp file or require further explanations
on the points do mention I will do my best to provide the necessary info.
Right below are the comments:




In that case, it's probably something worth pursuing.  Having the new
version fail when an older version works is curious.  Can you please
provide all of the following details:

1. Compilers used to build Gromacs


 2. Hardware description

These lines are from the CMakeOutput.log file:

The system is: Linux - 2.6.32-5-amd64 - x86_64(*)
Compiling the C compiler identification source file CMakeCCompilerId.c
succeeded.
Compiler: /usr/bin/gcc

cc -v:  gcc version 4.4.5

3. mdrun command

4. Complete .mdp file



grompp -f minimize.mdp -c Mut3.gro -o em.tpr -p topol.top
mdrun -v -deffnm em


The minimize.mdp file:

integrator  = steep
emtol   = 1000.0
emstep  = 0.01
nsteps  = 5
nstlist = 1
ns_type = grid
rlist   = 1.0
coulombtype = PME
rcoulomb= 1.0
rvdw= 1.0
pbc = xyz




Does the .tpr file run on a machine with different hardware or compilers?  The 
GCC version is outdated, though in principle should work fine.  If the failure 
consistently happens on your machine (and especially if it happens on other 
machines), please file a bug report on redmine.gromacs.org and include a .tpr 
file and all of the information posted above.

[gmx-users] Re: electron desnity

2013-03-07 Thread Dr. Vitaly Chaban
 Hello

 In the g_density manual it is mentioned that

 When calculating electron densities, atomnames are used instead of types,
 this is bad

 So what should be included in the electrons.dat file. The unique atomtypes
 of the group or all the atomnames of this group?

 Thanks in advance.


I am not 100% sure, but it probably reads atom names and tries to
guess the element based on the first two symbols.

Dear Michael,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, it is relatively clear now. Will try to play around with this later today.

Best,
Joakim

 Hi, Joakim-
 
 Hamiltonian exchange only should work if there is a lambda coupling
 parameter that defines the potential at each state.  You need to
 define your pulling potential so that the coupling-lambda parameter
 can be used to define the different pulling location centers along
 your trajectory.  Does this make it clearer?
