Dear gromacs users, Previously I posed a problem how to calculate the RMSD of our interested region of protein, even though I did simulation for full length protein. I got solution from one of our user. Based his suggestion I created index file and have executed the following command. gmx rms -s md_0_1.tpr -f md_0_1_noPBC.xtc -o rmsd.xvg -tu ns -n index.ndx My index.ndx file has the c alpha numbers which I have to calculate the RMSD. Here I am not mentioning any superimposition. How does the gmx rms command work? can I do superimposition of my interested residues? and also what is -fit argument? I request you to answer my question.
The first group gmx rms prompts for is the fitting group, applying whatever type of fitting is requested in -fit. The default is rotational and translational fitting, which is usually what one wants to avoid spurious global contributions to the RMSD.
