Re: [gmx-users] rhombic dodecahedron construction

2014-05-23 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Trayder,

You can check the code of insane (
http://cgmartini.nl/cgmartini/index.php/insane), which sets up such a
rhombic dodecahedron when -pbc optimal is given. Essentially, the routine
boils down to:

1. Determining the diameter of the protein in the XY directions
2. Set the first vector u=(diam+pbcdistance, 0, 0)
3. Set the second vector v=(u/2, cos30*u, 0)
4. Set the third vector to w=(u/2, cos30*u/3, Z), where
Z=(protZlength+pbcdistance)

Changing the Z-dimension of the box (or the whole box) can be done manually
(or using awk), changing the numbers of the last line in the gro file,
which corresponds to (ux vy wz uy uz vx vz wx wy). Finally, note that the
box (any box) is written in its triclinic representation, which is easiest
to handle mathematically.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk

 Hi,

 I'm trying to figure out how to construct a rhombic dodecahedron for a
 membrane system.
 The manual (Section 3.2.1) states:

 There are two different orientations of a rhombic dodecahedron that
 satisfy equations 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3. The program editconf produces the
 orientation which has a square intersection with the xy-plane. This
 orientation was chosen because the first two box vectors coincide with the
 x and y-axis, which is easier to comprehend. The other orientation can be
 useful for simulations of membrane proteins. In this case the cross-section
 with the xy-plane is a hexagon, which has an area which is 14% smaller than
 the area of a square with the same image distance. The height of the box
 (cz) should be changed to obtain an optimal spacing.

 I can't figure out how to construct the system with a hexagon on the x-y
 plane, I presume I can rotate the box but I can only visualise the result
 as a triclinic cell.
 I also can't figure out how to adjust the height of the box, editconf only
 accepts a single magnitude for dodecahedron vector lengths.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks in advance,

 -Trayder

Re: [gmx-users] counter ions in coarse grained simulations

You can simply add ions using genion. Its similar to what we do in AA

 I haven't come across tutorial or mailing list where people have added

 counter-ions ? or Do I assume that some sort of potential will take care of
 the effect? Or are the parameters from atomistic force fields are retained
 for counter-ions?

 How do I add counter-ions in gromacs to coarse grained topology?

 Your feedback is appreciated.

Re: [gmx-users] how to generate .top file

2014-05-23 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Lovika,

IIRC your gold is frozen, right? So you have a moleculetype definition for
one gold atom (atomtype, mass, charge). You can just put it in the .top
file after the #includes of the force field, like

#include forcefield.itp
#include protein.itp

[ moleculetype ]
AU  1

[ atoms ]
1   AU  1   UA  UA   1  0196.96655

[ system ]
Protein with gold

[ molecules ]
...


Hmm, I wonder, should one account for the gravitational effects of gold.
Pretty heavy stuff :p

You already have it.  The first solvation shell is the first peak in the RDF.

 Dear Justin,
  Thank you for the reply. I was using my 50 ns trajectory for
 generating the .xpm and .eps files. But when I tried the first 200 ps
 trajectory, I can see a clear image with helical content. I was wondering
 how to solve this because I have to use the whole 50 ns .tpr and .trr
 files. Please suggest me.


 I already did:


  The list does not accept attachments.  If you want to supply an image,
 upload it to a file-sharing server.

 If the image is simply distorted, that's where .m2p files are useful to
 alter the size properties of the matrix.

[gmx-users] md-vv run with the Nose-Hoover thermostat crashed..

2014-05-23 Thread Yu Ogawa
Hello gmx-users,

I tried to run a simulation to calculate a specific heat capacity of
infinite molecular crystal with the md-vv integrator and Nose-Hoover
thermostat on ver 4.6,
but it crashed immediately with only the message of Segmentation fault.


Does anyone have a similar experience or any good ideas for this problems?

I would appreciate very much if somebody gives any comments on this matter.

Re: [gmx-users] md-vv run with the Nose-Hoover thermostat crashed..

2014-05-23 Thread Yu Ogawa
Dear Mark,

At the very last part of the log file I can find outputs at 0.0 ps, but
nothing more below.

 Have you equilibrated your system first? Does another integrator or
thermostat work?

Yes, my mdrun program works with the other inputs, and I think the initial
structure is equilibrated enough because I can run a NPT simulation
properly with this structure file with md integrator and berendsen
thermostat.

I also tried the similar calculation with md integrator and Nose-Hoover. In
this case I could start running the simulation, but the temperature was not
controlled, and it stayed around the value of gen_temp.

Thank you,
Yu

Re: [gmx-users] Gromacs for reverse transformation

2014-05-23 Thread shivangi nangia
Dear Tsjerk,

My system contains CG (Martini): POPC bilayer, 21 AA peptide, water and
ions.

I realize that for all-atom the topology file should not contain details
for water and ions.

As a test while trying to understand and get familiarized with backward.

As of now I am trying to convert CG peptide only to all-atom.

I am using the following command:

./initram.sh -f protein.gro -p topol.top -from martini -po backmapped.top
-to gromos54a7

(I obtained the topol.top file for the peptide by using: pdb2gmx -f
peptide.pdb -o peptide.gro -p, selecting ff charmm and TIP3P water)

The script is giving me the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File /shared/maylab/shivi/fhv/inverse_cg/try1/backward.py, line 644, in
?

struc = Structure(options[-f].value,strict=options[-strict].value)

  File /shared/maylab/shivi/fhv/inverse_cg/try1/backward.py, line 388, in

Could you please help.

[gmx-users] Question regarding gromacs error of g_membed

2014-05-23 Thread Spyros Vicatos


Hello all.
I am a brand new user of Gromacs, and I am not even sure I am sending 
this email to the appropriate people. If my email goes to the wrong 
people, I apologize in advance I am trying to create a pdb (or gro) structure 
which containts protein 
and membrane, DPPC to be exact.
After following a certain path, I have managed to create all necessary 
files, and now I am about to use command g_membed. So, I use g_membed as 
follows g_membed -f membed.tpr -p system.top -xyinit 0.1 -xyend 1.0 -nxy 1000 
-o 
memtraj.trr Gromacs gives me a message, saying that it has created a .dat file, 
and 
that now I need to run mdrun in a specific way.
So I call mdun as follows mdrun -s membed.tpr -membed membed.dat -o memtraj.trr 
-c membedded.gro 
-e ener.edr -nt 1 -cpt -1 -mp system.top Gromacs then interactively asks me to 
choose Select a group to embed in 
the membrane: and I choose 1, protein
Then it asks me to choose Select a group to embed Protein into (e.g. 
the membrane): and I choose 13, DPPC After that, it looks like mdrun 
crushes, and it gives me the following 
error: ---
Program mdrun, VERSION 4.6.5
Source code file: 
/home/$$$/PROGRAMS/GROMACS/gromacs-4.6.5/src/gmxlib/mtop_util.c, line: 215 
Software inconsistency error:
gmx_mtop_atomlookup_settle_init called without settles
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors 
--- I have no idea how to 
address this error. Can someone tell me what my 
mistake may probably be? I kind of found the source code online, but 
still I am not familiar (yet) with the variables. If you can forward this email 
to the appropriate people, I would greatly 
appreciate it.
Thanks
S.

Yes, my mdrun program works with the other inputs, and I think the

initial

structure is equilibrated enough because I can run a NPT simulation
properly with this structure file with md integrator and berendsen
thermostat.

I also tried the similar calculation with md integrator and Nose-Hoover.

In

this case I could start running the simulation, but the temperature was

not

controlled, and it stayed around the value of gen_temp.

Thank you,
Yu

Generating new velocities with Nose-Hoover can be very unstable; grompp should 
have thrown a warning about this.  You should equilibrate for a while at the 
starting temperature, then pass the .cpt file from the equilibration to the 
annealing run to preserve the previous ensemble.  Re-generating velocities 
negates any equilibration done previously, and whether or not the simulation 
works is, at that point, a bit of a coin-flip.

[gmx-users] PBC problems??

2014-05-23 Thread Steve Seibold
My protein breaks according to viewing the traj in VMD and graphing the RMSD of 
the protein C-terminus 

 
I have tried all combinations of trjconv -pbc -center
-box center and nothing works..I was able to get online and find a
tutorial that says trjconv -pbc mol, should stop the problem, but this
failedIsn't there a way for the protein and water to be wrapped or COM
calculations done DURING MD to remove translation, rotation so that post-MD
modification of trajectories is unnecessary??...If I make an index group of the
N-terminus of the protein this problems goes away or if I use the whole
protein...It is only when I attempt to get the rms of the C-terminus region
that I get this graphing problem (traj plots look like Histograms)Not sure 
what this means since if I observe
the trajectories in VMD the whole protein breaks up

Thanks, Steve

 Generating new velocities with Nose-Hoover can be very unstable; grompp
 should have thrown a warning about this.  You should equilibrate for a
 while at the starting temperature, then pass the .cpt file from the
 equilibration to the annealing run to preserve the previous ensemble.
  Re-generating velocities negates any equilibration done previously, and
 whether or not the simulation works is, at that point, a bit of a coin-flip.

Re: [gmx-users] md-vv run with the Nose-Hoover thermostat crashed..

2014-05-23 Thread Thomas C. O'Connor
I might just add:

Your time-scale for controlling your thermostat (tau_t) is set equal to
your timescale time-scale for controlling your barostat (tau_p). Having
these two relaxation times set equal can be quite unstable, especially if
your system is not already in equilibrium.

You typically want your tau_p to be larger (how much varies but ~ a factor
of 10 is safe) than your tau_t. This is because you want the thermal
degrees of freedom to be well equilibrated much faster than the system box
changes size.

The value of time constants that produce stable simulations also depends on
your system. A couple of good rules of thumb for tau_t and tau_p would be:

1. Choose tau_t   than the intermolecular collision time of your system.
(This can be determined from a calculation of the velocity autocorrelation
function).

2. Choose tau_p so that it is larger than the sound transit time of your
system.. i.e.  make tau_p larger than the time needed by a sound wave to
travel across your system. This is because the fluctuations in density
caused by changing the simulation box size need to dissipate and correlate
throughout the system and they do so at ~ the speed of sound.

I hope this helps. Thermo/Barostating can be really frustrating and cause
a lot of headaches if your time-scales aren't right!

To say nothing of the fact that the manual clearly states MTTK is not
useable with the md integrator. But who reads manuals these days? :-)

 I might just add:

 Your time-scale for controlling your thermostat (tau_t) is set equal to
 your timescale time-scale for controlling your barostat (tau_p). Having
 these two relaxation times set equal can be quite unstable, especially if
 your system is not already in equilibrium.

 You typically want your tau_p to be larger (how much varies but ~ a factor
 of 10 is safe) than your tau_t. This is because you want the thermal
 degrees of freedom to be well equilibrated much faster than the system box
 changes size.

 The value of time constants that produce stable simulations also depends on
 your system. A couple of good rules of thumb for tau_t and tau_p would be:

 1. Choose tau_t   than the intermolecular collision time of your system.
 (This can be determined from a calculation of the velocity autocorrelation
 function).

 2. Choose tau_p so that it is larger than the sound transit time of your
 system.. i.e.  make tau_p larger than the time needed by a sound wave to
 travel across your system. This is because the fluctuations in density
 caused by changing the simulation box size need to dissipate and correlate
 throughout the system and they do so at ~ the speed of sound.

 I hope this helps. Thermo/Barostating can be really frustrating and cause
 a lot of headaches if your time-scales aren't right!

   Generating new velocities with Nose-Hoover can be very unstable; grompp
   should have thrown a warning about this.  You should equilibrate for a
   while at the starting temperature, then pass the .cpt file from the
   equilibration to the annealing run to preserve the previous ensemble.
Re-generating velocities negates any equilibration done previously,
 and
   whether or not the simulation works is, at that point, a bit of a
  coin-flip.

You'll need to post complete .mdp files of whatever it is you're

 Trying to provide help based on fragmented information is very

 What has gen_temp to do with it? You sound like you're doing an

[gmx-users] large free energy difference of mutating ATP to GTP in solution using FEP method in Gromacs-4.6.5

2014-05-23 Thread dbaogen
Dear all,

   I want to calculate the free energy difference of mutating ATP to 
GTP in solution using FEP method. Firstly, the hybrid topology and structure 
files for A (ATP) and B (GTP) state using dummy atoms were constructed. 
Secondly,  the system is running for 10 ns to reach an equilibrium state.  And 
then the structure at 10 ns is as the starting structure to carry out FEP 
calculation. In the course of FEP, the coulomb interaction was firstly changed, 
and then the VDW interactions. Total 32 lambda points are set in the mdp file 
shown in the following:
