Dear Gromacs Users,

Thanks Justin and Marc for the response and you were right.

As suggested, i had a view in the modelled protein pdb file and here
both the terimus are capped that is as follows;

ATOM      1  N   THR A  62     -43.095   3.360  19.026  1.00 30.00           N1+

ATOM   4804  OXT PRO A 355     -53.907  34.064  13.899  1.00110.00           O1-

then i tried to execute the pdb2gmx command as under, (which i did
earlier also): pdb2gmx -f damgomu.pdb -o damgomu_processed.gro -ignh
-ter -water spc

and selected the "Gromos96 53a6" parameter and "none" options, then
the warnings and errors where as follows:


Why would you choose "None?" It would seem that you do not, in fact, have capping groups. If atom 1 is the N of THR, then there is no ACE cap before it...

Now there are 294 residues with 3043 atoms
Making bonds...
Warning: Long Bond (12-14 = 0.65447 nm)
Warning: Long Bond (1975-1977 = 4.21722 nm)
Warning: Long Bond (2050-2052 = 3.24295 nm)

These messages generally indicate missing atoms. Investigate what they are and why these errors are coming up.

Opening library file /usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top/aminoacids.dat

WARNING: atom H is missing in residue THR 1 in the pdb file
         You might need to add atom H to the hydrogen database of residue THR
         in the file ff???.hdb (see the manual)


This warning comes from the fact that you are telling pdb2gmx to look for capping groups in order to find improper dihedrals, and it appears no such groups exist.

Fatal error:
There were 1 missing atoms in molecule Protein_A, if you want to use
this incomplete topology anyhow, use the option -missing

and in the previous run i concatenated -missing option and continued
further, then the toplogy was written with the charge of Total charge
12.690 e ,but still the warning persisted of missing H atom in THR1.


There is a reason the pdb2gmx help information calls the -missing option "dangerous"...

Please suggest me how to rectify this error and why the total number
of atoms in pdb file (4815) are not matching even though the number of
residues are matching after pdb2gmx step.


Find out which atoms are missing (if any) to fix the "long bonds" problem, then don't specify "None" as your termini unless you really have acetyl and amide caps.

Thanks,

Ram





and selected choose the "Gromos96 53a6" parameter and "none" options

Dear Gromacs users,

I have a modelled protein whose net charge is +12.69, and I would like to 
ionize the protein to make it neutral using genion command, but in genion 
command we can add a specific number of postive or negative charged ions which 
for my case would not completely neutralize the system and i learnt from Justin 
tutorial that we can even neutralize it using -conc and -neutral options in 
conjugation. As I am running a membrane-protein simulation, I would like to 
know the command which I am using is correct or not.

genion -s ions.tpr -o protein_solv_ions.gro -p topol.top -pname NA+ -nname CL- 
-nn 12 -neutral

If my command is wrong Please suggest the right one as In future i have to 
conjugate SOL and CL- ions to create a special index file.


If your protein has a net charge of +12.69, it is probably wrong.  Does 
anything in real life have such a net fractional charge?

Go back and evaluate what you have done.  Are there missing atoms?  Wrong 
parameters?  The genion command you want to use is fine, but is not suitable 
for your system in its current state.

-Justin

Thanks

Ram
