Hello gromacs users,
I am facing a particular problem in the preparation of my protein.I have a NMR derived structure with hydrogens. To prepare my protein i thought of a two step procedure 1)stripping the protein of the hydrogens using -ignh and saving pdb output 2)submitting the pdb output file from stage 1 using the -inter flag to get my final .top .gro and .pdb files I find that at the end of step 1 the pdb output is stripped of hydrogens. In the second stage I find that the .top file has the hydrogens listed (only polar hydrogens) but the pdb output is still without any hydrogens. I want to follow the gromacs tutorial titled GROMACS Tutorial for Drug Enzyme Complex. http://www2.umdnj.edu/~kerrigje/pdf_files/trp_drug_tutor.pdf here they have used a prepared protein pdb file while merging the ligand coordinates to form the final complex. My questions are 1) why the pdb file written in step two does not contain the hydrogens and how can i solve this issue? 2) Is there any other way to prepare the ligand-protein complex without using the protein .pdb output? 3) This is a slightly unrelated question. Could some body guide me to any tutorials etc where they have shown how to calculate gausssian charges for the ligand and then incorporate into the gromacs ligand file? I can provide the protein structure file. I couldnt load it to the group mail because of size limitations Thanking you in anticipation Prasenjit Kumar Mukherjee Graduate Student Department of Medicinal Chemistry School of Pharmacy University of Mississippi USA Cell - 662 380 0146 Office - 662 915 1286 _______________________________________________ gmx-users mailing list gmx-users@gromacs.org http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting!
