You have to make sure that the trajectories and the eigenvectors match. Then you have to think of what you want to do. - If you want to project the x-ray structures onto the eigenvectors from the MD simulations, you have to use g_anaeig -v eigenvec_from_md.trr -s reference.tpr -f xray_structures.pdb -proj - If you want to compare the similarity of the eigenvectors obtained from MD and from your crystal structures, you have to do PCA on both sets separately and then g_anaeig -v eigenvec_from_md.trr -v2 eigenvec_from_xray.trr -eig eigenval_from_md.xvg -eig2 eigenval_from_xray.xvg -s reference.tpr -inpr Cheers, Tsjerk > > > Thanks for help, > > > James > > -- > gmx-users mailing list [email protected] > http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users > Please search the archive at > http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! > Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
