If your cluster is not whole in the first frame, you can do it this way:1. use trjconv pbc cluster to make your cluster whole in a frame near the start of your trajectory. If the first frame enters the infinite loop, then try the second frame, etc.2. Make a new .tpr based on this clustered .gro3. run trjconv pbc nojumpChris. original message Hi Daniel,This doesn't exactly answer your question, but if your vesicle is whole at the start, can't you better keep it that way using pbc nojump? I f necessary, you can also recenter afterwards.Hope it helps,TsjerkOn Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 12:24 PM, Daniel Partonwrote:[Hide Quoted Text] Hi,I am running a coarsegrained simulation of a lipid vesicle (~70,000 particles), using a rhombic dodecahedron box to limit the amount of solvent I require.The vesicle (unsurprisingly) moves over the periodic boundaries during the simulation.Various analyses I am conducting require the vesicle to be whole, so I have been trying to use trjconv with the pbc cluster option, selecting the lipids as the group to be clustered.I am only interested in the lipid behaviour, so I am using a trajectory with only the lipids included.However, at certain frames, the program seems to enter an infinite loop, producing many lines of the following sort of information:....

I proceeded as follows: Determined my parameters with RED/ANTECHAMBER/tleap converted them with amb2gmx.pl(or with acpypi, problem is the same) to gromacs coordinate and topology files. It concerns a modified nucleotide. I minimized with steepest descent, everything was fine.When I tried running a simulation in single precision with this .mdp file (only nucleotide without solvent):integrator = mddt = 0.002 nsteps = 250000 nstcomm= 1;output nstxout = 1 nstvout = 1 nstfout = 0 nstlog= 500 nstenergy = 1nstlist= 10 nstype= grid rlist= 1.2 coulombtype= PME rcoulomb = 1.2 vdwtype= cutoff rvdw = 1.2fourierspacing = 0.12 pmeorder= 4 ewaldrtol = 1e5;constraints constraints= allbonds ;temperature coupling is on Tcoupl= vrescale taut = 0.1 tcgrps = system reft = 300pcoupl= noI get LINCS errors and eventually a crash. Now I tried running the same simulation with the same f orce field parameters in amber and everything was fine.I also ran the calculation in GROMACS with double precision here again everything was fine... I also tried running a small nucleic acid fragment (so no modified parameters here)that I created intleap and converted to GROMACS again this crashes with lincs errors in GROMACS. When I look at the trajectories it is the O4' of the ribose who clashes with the O3'. The fact that I still get this problem with non modified amber parameters makes me thing there is something wrong with my .mdp file to run with amber FF, any suggestions?Strange also that double precision seems to work just fine....Message: 5 Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 14:49:12 +0100 From: Pieter van 't HofSubject: [gmxusers] Survey: 3 minutes of your time To: [email protected] MessageID:ContentType: text/plainHello,My name is Pieter van 't Hof.
