Dear Gromacs users,
I am calculating hydrogen bonds between polymer and water using
Gromacs 4.5.4 and opls-AA force field. Our goal is to extract
coordinates of atoms which form hydrogen bond at each frame.
1. The way I do it now is iterating following commands at every frame
using a script:
g_hbond -f fn -s fn -b frame# -e frame# -g frame#
trjconv -f fn -s fn -b frame# -e frame# -o frame#.pdb
It works but would take 5ns and generate 0.6GB data per 100 frame for
my system.
Since Gromacs can calculate the hbond life time so that I wonder is
there anywhere I can find hbond index for each frame?
One run through g_hbond with -hbm and -hbn will map out all hydrogen bonds and
when they exist. No need to analyze frames separately.
2. Another thing weird in my simulation is : based on the hbond log
file, all the hydrogen that can form hbond is HW1, which is the first
hydrogen in water residue. a glimpse of my log file:
# Donor Hydrogen Acceptor
SOL750OW SOL750HW1 BAE380O1
SOL787OW SOL787HW1 MMA491O1
SOL824OW SOL824HW1 MMA423O1
Would you have any idea about this?
The default behavior of g_hbond is to merge equivalent hydrogens (-merge flag)
so HW1 and HW2 are considered the same and likely are just labeled as HW1.
