[gmx-users] dssp works fine, but do_dssp gives fatal error

2013-06-12 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Dear all,

I installed dssp (Version 2.0.4) and it works perfect on a .pdb file.
I am trying to use it for do_dssp command but get the following error each
time:

Fatal error:
Failed to execute command: /usr/local/bin/dssp -na ddtmi68v ddwLuK68 
/dev/null 2 /dev/null


Is there any way to rectify it?

Thanks.
Nikunj

Yes I did searched. But for most people, there were issues regarding the
path or wrong DSSP.
DSSP runs for me, but do_dssp does not.

Alternatively, you can use editconf -f (tpr file) -o (pdb file) to convert
.gro to .pdb, and then use the visualization tools such as Pymol to view it.

Then, I used g_mindist for both cases (d 1.0 and d 0.5). It is around 9 A

I need to know if I have done something wrong in setting up the system. Is
there any way to get feasible number of solvent molecules?

Re: [gmx-users] Large number of solvent molecules

2013-05-13 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Thank you Dr. Dallas. Yes I think the issue is that the starting
conformation is linear, as I want to study its folding properties. I tried
the same with helical starting conformation, and got around 11 water
molecules, which is still ok.
I am trying to find a way to simulate a 89 aa peptide in linear starting
conformation such that the simulation is practically feasible.

On Tue, May 14, 2013 at 10:45 AM, Dallas Warren dallas.war...@monash.eduwrote:

 From the box volume printed in the script output it appears you have a
 box that is approximately a 28nm cube.  And that size box requires a
 significant number of water molecules to fill up, so that number you have
 in there (~770,000) seems about correct.

 If you want to have less water molecules, then you will need to make the
 simulation cell smaller.  Whether that is possible or not depends on what
 you are looking to observe, how big the molecule you are solvating is etc.

[gmx-users] Error in pdb2gmx

2013-04-30 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Dear all,

I got an error while using pdb2gmx command (pdb2gmx -f 123.pdb -o
output.gro)

I used 13. GROMOS 53a6 force field

Fatal error:
Atom HA in residue GLU 1 was not found in rtp entry GLU with 12 atoms while
sorting atoms.

For a hydrogen, this can be a different protonation state, or it
might have had a different number in the PDB file and was rebuilt
(it might for instance have been H3, and we only expected H1  H2).
Note that hydrogens might have been added to the entry for the N-terminus.
Remove this hydrogen or choose a different protonation state to solve it.
Option -ignh will ignore all hydrogens in the input.

So I used -glu option in pdb2gmx (pdb2gmx -f 123.pdb -o output.gro -glu)

I get the following options.

Which GLUTAMIC ACID type do you want for residue 1
0. Not protonated (charge -1) (GLU)
1. Protonated (charge 0) (GLUH)

Both options give the same error as before.

The same error occurs for HB1 as well.

Will I have to edit the pdb or rtp file? Or any other suggestions?

Thanks..

Re: [gmx-users] Error in pdb2gmx

2013-04-30 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Thanks Justin. I know that using -ignh will solve the problem. But I was
just curious because I got the same error message (Fatal error: Atom HD1
in residue HIS 65 was not found in rtp entry HISE with 17 atoms while
sorting atoms. ) when I used OPLS, this time it was His 65.

So I used -his option in pdb2gmx and got the following options to choose

Which HISTIDINE type do you want for residue 65
0. H on ND1 only (HISD)   #Works. total charge= -17.000
1. H on NE2 only (HISE)   # Error
2. H on ND1 and NE2 (HISH)#Works. total charge= -16.000
3. Coupled to Heme (HIS1)   #Works. total charge= -17.000

So shall I go ahead with any of the option except 1, or use -ignh?

 Read the error message again; it tells you what to do.

 Consider what you're doing - you're supplying a united-atom force field
 with an all-atom structure.  The chosen parameter set doesn't have explicit
 hydrogens on nonpolar groups.  Hence pdb2gmx complains that you're giving
 it atoms it doesn't understand.  Use of -ignh solves this issue, which is
 precisely what the error message is telling you.

Re: [gmx-users] Maximum protein size for REMD?

2013-04-11 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
I understand the point now. Bigger the system, closer will be the spacing.
One thing though: The average energy (mu) returned by the web server for
each temperature is 7-8 times more than the actual energy returned after
REMD was over.
Is there something we are missing here?

Thanks.

 You can space them however you want, but you will only get exchanges
 if they are close enough in temperature. The spacing returned by the
 generator is not small because it wants you to use excess compute
 resources! It needs to be small for big systems.

[gmx-users] REMD temperature spacing formula

2013-04-04 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Dear all,

We are stuck at the last stage of running a successful REMD.
We have obtained average potential energy by fitting the energy values from
initial MD.
We want to get the temperature spacing for 72 replicas, starting from 280K.
We have gone through numerous papers, but none of them explain clearly how
they got the spacing values.
Is there any equation/formula/web utility which gives the spacing?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.

I think determining k in the equation is not clear. How is it related to a

temperature, the temp. spacing will be the same. Is that correct?

 Sounds normal for the kind of system you seem to have. Higher numbers of
 degrees of freedom require closer temperature spacing.

 Is there any other way to determine the spacing? Can the equation
  T(i)=T(0).e(k.i) be used, as we are unable to comprehend it?
 

 Yes, but if you want exchanges to occur, there are constraints on the size
 of k. What's so hard about T(i+1)=T(i)*k?

Re: [gmx-users] REMD temperature spacing error

2013-03-13 Thread Nikunj Maheshwari
Sorry. I thought it was related to Boltzmann constt.
Then how is 'k' calculated ?

 k is dimensionless. It does not relate to Boltzmann's constant. The
 exponential spacing it produces would lead to replica exchange rates that
 are constant over the T range, under certain assumptions (e.g. papers by
 David A Kofke). In practice, it normally would not lead to such rates.
 Whether constant exchange rate is even useful/meaningful is another matter
 (e.g. papers by Walter Nadler  Ulrich Hansmann).

  I think determining k in the equation is not clear. How is it related to
 a
  system size? If k=1/(kb.t) [kb=boltzmann constt], then for a given
 starting
  temperature, the temp. spacing will be the same. Is that correct?

Dear all.
   
We are trying to run REMD on two proteins : 292 and 44 aa residues
  using
GROMACS 4.6.
We are unable to obtain the temperature spacing using REMD
