[gmx-users] Comparing the simulation
Dear Friends, I did the Simulation study for self assembly of peptides . ( I used G96 53a6 FF ) In First Experiment, I put the two XX peptide far from each other 2.0 nm, and run the simulation. In the second experiment I put the two YY peptide seperated by 2.0 nm. and run the simulation. In nvt I used the sane parameter, but In NPT, MD simulation I run the Parrinello-Rahman barostat with tau_P 2.0 ns for XX peptide and tau_P 1 for YY peptide. I found that peptide YY interaction start at 80ns and XX interaction start at 10 ns. I have following Question. 1.Is it possible to compare two MD simulation which used the same barostat but having the different tau_P ( Relaxation time). 2. Could I make the interpretation that XX peptide start interact more early than YY ?? 3. Would we compare the result between the simulation that uses the different barostat ant thermostat but still using the same Force field. I am looking forward for reply.

Re: [gmx-users] Comparing the simulation
Dear Justin, Thank you for your Prompt Reply. I run a at least 4-5 run of each peptide. The result are like the xx peptide form beta structure early than yy peptide in each run. I just used the different tau_P ( relaxation time ) for NPT and MD production run. XX tau_p = 2 YY tau_p= 1 NVT parameter are same. On these basis can I make the interpretation that XX form beta sheet structure early than YY though they uses the same barostat but different tau_P ??

You'll have to examine pressure distributions very carefully, but I am inherently suspicious of trying to salvage results that were based on a mistake. 2. Could I make the interpretation that XX peptide start interact more early than YY ?? Based on one simulation of each? No. 3. Would we compare the result between the simulation that uses the different barostat ant thermostat but still using the same Force field. If you are altering both thermostat and barostat, I would be extremely skeptical of the results. Apply consistent methods. -Justin -- ==** Justin A.

The best training experience would be to take a simple example from the literature and reproduce it. It is very hard to try to teach someone completely via email, especially since we do not know the scope and goals of what you are doing. With respect to the question about pressure coupling stability over 310 - 360 K, I don't know offhand what to expect, but in general, I think this is a standard limitation within REMD and you'll probably encounter it.

Re: [gmx-users] About the biotin parameter.....
Hi justin thank you for suggestion.

It is still incumbent upon you to demonstrate that the parameters you got from somewhere else (i.e., ATB) are suitable for what you intend. If you were to manually derive the parameters, you'd have to do the same thing. There is no guarantee that any service (PRODRG, ATB, etc) are inherently correct. ATB is generally quite good, but any reviewer worth his salt is going to ask whether or not you have evidence that the biotin parameters you chose are actually going to represent reality before you go spending a lot of time running simulations, collecting data, and making conclusions. The underlying validation of Gromos96 parameters involves calculating free energies of solvation for model compounds, which are then mapped back to the desired molecule (usually some biomolecule like an amino acid). So, in theory, you could: 1. Calculate the free energy of solvation of biotin, if it is known 2. Run test simulations of biotin in your protein and verify that it engages in known interactions Those are just what come to mind immediately, but you should consult the literature for other cofactors and see how they were parameterized. Gromos96 includes parameters for ATP, FAD, FMN, and others, so clearly there is methodology somewhere to which you can refer. -Justin -- ==**== Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] G_sas change in hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface area
Hi justin, Thank you for reply. As per your suggestion, The whole protein should always be the group for the surface calculation. Whatever subset of those atoms (i.e. residues of interest) can be the output group. So as per your suggestion I have to select the protein as my option 1 and for output I have to select the hydrophilic residues or hydrophobic residues as per my choice Is these is right ??? or Am I wrong??? ( That means I have to make to index file that contain two groups hydrophilic and hydrophobic residues.) Would you please tell me why not select the protein as output, as I am calculating the change in the hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface area of protein...??? As per the manual, The program will ask for a group for the surface calculation and a group for the output. The calculation group should always consists of all the non-solvent atoms in the system. The output group can be the whole or part of the calculation group. As two protein comes closer in simulation they formed the antiparrallel beta strand, I want to find the change in hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface area of protein...

As per your previous reply, The confusion likely arises from the fact that you're selecting Protein, which actually contains multiple molecules, rather than a single protein molecule. Atoms can come pretty close during a simulation, especially if they are involved in, for instance, hydrogen bonds. These means whenever I have to check the protein pbc , I have to make the index file for each chain, and have to select the pbc for that??? Please accept my apology if I repiting the same questions. but it is really confusing to me.. With best Wishes and Regards..

I have never seen people use such settings with Gromos96, and those listed in the table conflict with the protocols in the Gromos96 literature. Settings for OPLS-AA are less clear. It is very common to use 1.0-nm cutoffs (and in fact was the case in the Gromacs 4 paper), though the original OPLS literature used different cutoffs depending upon what types of molecules were present, which is not possible in Gromacs. You should read lots of papers by people who use OPLS-AA for similar types of systems and evaluate their success or inaccuracies. -Justin -- ==**== Justin A.

PBC artifacts arise when you violate the minimum image convention, that is, the same interaction is calculated multiple times, thus leading to erroneous contributions to the forces and flawed dynamics. If you avoid double-counting of interactions by setting an appropriately sized box, these don't occur. The only way I would see any spurious interactions occurring in your case is if the box massively shrank (which probably would have caused the system to crash anyway) or if any protein molecules unfolded. Stable, well-folded proteins placed in suitably sized boxes generally do not experience PBC artifacts, and the evidence you have presented thus far is not indicative of any problem. -Justin -- ==**== Justin A.

Hi friends , I am new to the REMD simulation. I read some thread from archive but they not clarify by queries that why I am asking you on forum I have following Queries: 1. I want to simulate protein by remd at physiological temp ( 310). So my initial temp of replica should be 310 or less than that??? 2. I read some thread for archive but not get the exact protocol : As per the http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/REMD link I have to do the seperate NVT for each replica... But Should for NPT and Production run I have to do the same thing ??? Or please help me to set the proper protocol.. When I used the T-remd http://folding.bmc.uu.se/remd/ for NVT *ERROR*: Can not do constant volume yet! So how to determine temp for the nvt ??? Is it possible to run replica directly in the production run ??? These may be simple question but as new to REMD these question putting me in a great trouble For NPT with constrained I got following result Summary of input and derived variables. VariableValue Pdes0.1 Temperature range310 - 350 Number of water molecules3000 Number of protein atoms284 Including all H~ 431 Number of hydrogens in protein~ 62 Number of constraints~ 284 Number of vsites~ 0 Number of degrees of freedom~ 27568Energy loss due to constraints1.18 (kJ/mol K) Should I have to use these same value for NVT and production MD ??? or for production MD I have to use NPT Constraints in the protein: fully flexible I just confused with these options. So please give me proper protocol. Thank you in advance.

Re: [gmx-users] Interaction study for peptide-receptor..
Hi, Yes it is possible to screen peptides as ligand. But for these following information is needed 1. Binding site of peptide and ligand 2. Which residues in peptide are important for binding. After you simply do the mutation on the desired peptide.Performed the MD upto 50 ns Find the interaction energy. As the MD need a lot of time , you can´t use it for the large library. I plan to do only 5 simulation. With best wishes and regards.

Plenty of methods exist to enhance the sampling of such systems and have been used to great effect. Computationally expensive to pull off properly? Yes. Impossible?

As these group are going to freeze in four simulation so if it affect one ligand it affect other ligand also. I read article that did the work like me , they sliced the binding residues and used the inert solid sphere to support binding residues instead of the freezing group other group.

HI you can put the protein in center by adding flag -center to trjconv ( see trjconv -h) use the proper index file ( if you made ) -n ..

Re: [gmx-users] Interaction study for peptide-receptor..
thank you Justin for reply. I dont know about long range interactions. But as I freeze the group I think it will improve my computational speed. So is there any way to find out or decide which group should be freeze, and which group should affect my interaction most probably?? Should I do Essential Dynamics ??? or Principle component analysis ??? Would you suggest me any general protocol for such work?? Thank you in Advance With Best Wishes and regards.

As mention I know the binding site, If I freeze the remaining portion in receptor that not involved in binding , Is it going to affect my screening process ??? Potentially. Do you know that the binding interactions and the mutations will only perturb local residues? Do you know that there are no long-range motions to be considered?

Hi francesco, Thank you For reply. I did docking but the result are not so impressive. I used vina and autodock. I also did virtual screening in autodock but the result are not upto the mark. Is the freezing of group can affect my system?? How much efficiency I get by these work?? As these group are going to freeze in four simulation so if it affect one ligand it affect other ligand also. I read article that did the work like me , they sliced the binding residues and used the inert solid sphere to support binding residues instead of the freezing group other group.

Re: [gmx-users] Interaction study for peptide-receptor..
Thank you justin and franscisco, I have practical data that claim that only a particular residue that is c terminal residue is involve in binding. but when I generate the docking data other residues most of the time comes to play. I know the binding of natural ligand ( peptide ) and the position. so I think if I mutate only these residue and simulate the system I will get the structure that is more active. In natural ligand the C terminal is playing important role. With simulation i will find interaction energy. That will tell me about binding affinity ( Hope so ) These is my basic idea. Is any other way to do the same thing..

Re: [gmx-users] Interaction study for peptide-receptor..
Thank you for reply, I read the recently published article in Biochemistry. They worked on the same receptor that I am working. ( as I mention in my previous mail) They used NAMD software and I am using gromacs. They sliced the receptor binding site and used the the solid support to the binding site and did simulation. So if I freeze the group is it will ok ?? Is it possible in gromacs to fix the residue on solid immobilized surface. If it is how to do it?? my question is How to decide which group are remove and which group should keep in simulation. thank you in advance Thank you for giving your valuable time and advice to me.

I would first try the FlexPepDocking module of Rosetta which does ab initio folding of the peptide on the receptor, while moving the side-chains of the protein but leaves its backbone intact. Rosetta implements a knowledge-based scoring, which has been specifically designed for this task and is as fast as Vina or AutoDock. I would first do that and if I wouldn't get any reasonable results then I would move to MD starting from the top scored protein-peptide complexes created by Rosetta.

You are using position restraints to a pre-defined set of reference coordinates. This option allows you to choose how those *reference coordinates* should change when the box size changes (respectively do not scale them at all, scale them all, or scale their COM but leave their internal geometry fixed). Position restraints are then applied using the updated reference coordinates. In some archives I found if any one used freeze group suggested to use refcoord_scaling = no When we applied position restrain, the position of backbone atom is restrained.. I make my assumption as like follow.. No = no scalling in position of atoms.(system maintain rigidity). all = the system bcome flexible com= ?

I found that fedora add/remove software package has gromacs 4.5.5 version that can be easily installed by command yum .. It enlisted with total 15 different packages : eg.. two packages.. 1. GROMACS Open MPI binaries and libraries 2 . GROMACS OPEN MPI shared libraries and a more.. Please can you tell me which packages I have to install so that I can run GROMACS 4.5.5 in parallel to do REMD. Thank you in advance Have a nice day.. With Best Wishes and regards.

Hi Gromacs friends I read the Gromacs manual for 4.5.4, Section 3.4 page no 33, Surface tension coupling work with only Berendsen Press coupling. Please , would you tell me how to calculate lateral surface tension from P|| ( lateral press ) and Pz( Perpendicular press ) ??? ( Why to say P|| = -30 Pz = 1 , will give the teral tension of 20 mNm/m ???) I found out the way to calculate the lateral pressure..

The formula as per article is Boundary lateral press = 1 - ( Surface Tension / Thickness in Z dimension.)... ; Temperature coupling is on tcoupl= Berendsen; More accurate thermostat tc-grps= Protein DPPCSOL_CL; three coupling groups - more accurate tau_t= 0.10.10.1; time constant, in ps ref_t= 323 323323; reference temperature, one for each group, in K ; Pressure coupling is on pcoupl= Berendsen; Pressure coupling on in NPT vectors, independent z tau_p= 0.5; time constant, in ps ref_p= -30.01.0; reference pressure, x-y,z (in bar) compressibility = 5.0e-55.0e-5; isothermal compressibility, bar^-1 pcoupltype= What pcoupltype shouild be used ??? semiisotropic or Surface-tension Please give me the valuable suggestion in these regard Thank you in advance.

[gmx-users] Fwd: Determine sec structure by MD
Hi Gromacs Friends, I have the experimental result of change in Secondary structure of peptide from random coil to Beta sheet, as the conc increases ( but not know the Parallel or anti-parallel ) I run Simulation of ( 30ns ) two peptide in random coil structure put sufficiently apart (2.4 nm) so they are not interacting to each other initially, I found they are coming close to each other in anti-parallel fashion, But they remain in random coil.To extend these study I run simulation of four peptide they also come close to each other in anti-parallel way (Show the change in secondary structure from random coil to anti-parallel beta sheet) After these I put the peptide in anti-parallel way to form the fiber structure, they show the some parallel and anti-parallel arrangement in fiber. Note- If I put the two peptide in random state, close enough in parallel to each other they also form parallel beta sheet structure .. As the MD study is affected by initial arrangement. I am interested How to Determine by Molecular Dynamics, Is structure favor Parallel or Anti-parallel state ? also the energy difference in two, parallel and anti-parallel Please give me some some valuable suggestion and method to solve my query.

Hi Gromacs Friends, I completed Justin-Lipid Tutorial. I plan to simulate protein-lipid system to study protein-lipid interaction. My Query is like 1. I plan to use DPPC (128) lipid from Tieleman Website. I removed its periodicity as per tutorial instruction.. I found that I need the z box Dimension more than 6.59650. ( I not Change x-y box Dimension , As it affect the equilibrated DPPC layer). So with help of editconf command I changed the Z box Dimension to 8.00 while x and y are same . Is these process is right or any good suggestion in my work-flow ??? 2. I wish to put lipid membrane away from protein ( Protein is not embedded in lipid ). Should I use InflateGro?? Should I use Strong position restrain during Energy minimisation??? please give me valuable Guidance With Best Wishes and regards Rama -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting!

Re: [gmx-users] simulated annealing mdp
Hello Justin and Ravi, Lets explain me Why I did simulated anealing?? .. I synthesise peptide and I have experimental data for its self assembly, I just want to reproduced these data. I arranged the 32 protein in axis to petide fibre, in antiparrallel Beta sheet structure. I dont have crystal structure , Thats why I did SA in the hope that after these the side chain may be get properly oriented with respect to each other.That will give me good structure for production run. I also run system withought SA , but I get good result by following SA protocol. In posrestrain only backbone is restrained and the sidechain is free to move, So I think it may be help to achieve my goal. After these I also plan to use SA as production run, then compare the result with previous protocols. Please give valuable suggestion to improve my study protocol..

As per the link http://www.gromacs.org/**Documentation/Terminology/** Blowing_Up http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Blowing_Up The water model is not the problem. Your solvated system has clashes that cause instability. In vacuo, your solute has greater freedom to shift around. I think the source is (Please tell me is it right..?? or any else reason ) last option : you have a single water molecule somewhere within the system that is isolated from the other water molecules. How to find such water molecule and solve the problem?? I think this is unlikely. If you have any isolated waters, they might be sandwiched somewhere in your protein layers and should be easy to spot. The best strategy is to use the output of EM to your advantage. Look at the atom that had the highest force on it. What is it near? What might it be clashing with? What if you run EM in vacuo, followed by solvation, and another round of EM? From your earlier description, it seems to me that the system has been constructed to replicate some known experimental spacing, but doing so does not guarantee that whatever peptide structure you are replicating will necessarily produce a sensible result, or one that is free from clashes. Hence, you need to refine the model before continuing. -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting!

Re: [gmx-users] About extend the run,,
Thank you Justin for quick reply On Sat, Jun 2, 2012 at 8:12 PM, Justin A. Lemkul jalem...@vt.edu wrote: To perform these task I am using following command 1. grompp -f New mdp file just change in saving output -t .cpt -c .gro file(gro file from position restrained run ) -o new.tpr 2. tpbconv -s new.tpr -0 extend.tpr -extend 3 3. mdrun -v -deffnm extend -cpi .cpt -append Is these approach is correct?? No. The new.tpr file contains instructions to run from 20 - 30 ns. There is no need to then invoke tpbconv. You would also need a new invocation of mdrun, since the output frequencies won't match. You don't want to append those files with mdrun (nor will the checkpoint file likely let you) Extremely Sorry for my carelessness , New mdp files means the same as previous, with same number of steps, but just change in output frequency So as per your recommendation and experience Is any alternative to do these from 20 ns??? Second query; To rerun the crash run, users give .cpt file as input to -mdrun, My query is, There are two cpt file a) pre.cpt b) .cpt , So which one has to given as input??? Use gmxcheck to understand the contents of each. The timestamp will also tell you a difference, as will reading mdrun -h for an explanation of what the -cpt option is doing As per the link.. http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/File_Formats/Checkpoint_File I interpreted following things.. 1. I have to use the state.cpt , but in the case problem to these I have to use prev.cpt, I can check there content by gmxcheck..

Lemkul jalem...@vt.edu wrote: You'll get a mismatch in your files (checkpoint, trajectory, energy) in terms of frame interval. You should not try to append to these files or extend the run. Just run a new simulation from 20 - 30 ns. The grompp command was correct, assuming you set tinit = 2 in the .mdp file and setting nsteps appropriately to give another 10 ns. Then run it as a new simulation. It will still be an extension of the first simulation (since the .cpt preserves the previous state), but without the mdrun -cpi -append mechanism, which in this case you don't want (or possibly can't use) I will follow your advice..

If you're getting frequent crashes, you should investigate why this is happening rather than just plowing ahead. Are there error messages in the .log or stdout/stderr output? Are your energetic terms sensible? If the system is crashing due to physical instability, you're wasting your time producing junk. If the crashes are occurring due to hardware or filesystem instability, that's something to take up with your sysadmin. -Justin Thank you For Advice... -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting!

[gmx-users] umbrella windows...
Hi Gromacs Friends, I am doing Justin-Umbrella sampling tutorial... http://www.bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/Pages/Personal/justin/gmx-tutorials/umbrella/06_umbrella.html After pulling I found the Chain A is moving away from protofibril but reaches up to the other end of the cell.. So Is these situation Satisfy the Minimum image condition??? or Am I doing some wrong ..??? as tutorial Says.. GROMACS calculates distances while simultaneously taking periodicity into account. This, if you have a 10-nm box, and you pull over a distance greater than 5.0 nm, the periodic distance becomes the reference distance for the pulling, and this distance is actually less than 5.0 nm! This fact will significantly affect results, since the distance you *think* you are pulling is not what is *actually* calculated. My Query is on very basic concept... tutorial says In this example, we will be sampling COM distances from 0.5 - 5.0 nm along the z-axis using roughly 0.2-nm spacing. The following example commands may or may not be literally correct (the frame numbers may differ), but will serve as an example as to how to run grompp on separate coordinate files to generate all 23 inputs (note as well that 23 is the amount of windows required to obtain 0.2-nm spacing over roughly 4.5 nm; my summary_distances.dat has following lines.. 00.5011713 10.5068762 20.4948514 .. . . 1600.6993698 so my 1st configuration will be at 0 (0.5011713) and 160 (0.69936) .Is it right??? I choose total 28 windows instead of 23 ...So is it good or bad ??? Thank you in Advance...
