[gmx-users] van hove correlation function
Hi, I have calculated van hove correlation function of lipids using g_vanhove tool. Now I want to calculate the non gaussian parameter of this function which is defined as: α2(*t*) = 3 [image: left angle bracket]*r*4(*t*) [image: right angle bracket]/5 [image: left angle bracket]*r*2(*t*) [image: right angle bracket] 2 – 1 where [image: left angle bracket]*r*2(*t*) [image: right angle bracket] is the MSD. But the problem is that MSD is directly calculated from the g_msd tool, so how to calculate [image: left angle bracket]*r*4(*t*) [image: right angle bracket] from MSD? And if there is any way to calcualte this parameter directly from the g_vanhove tool? Please help. -- Ipsita Basu Research Fellow c/o : Dr. Chaitali Mukhopadhyay Rajabazar Science College 92 APC Road Kolkata - 79 -- Gromacs Users mailing list * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/GMX-Users_List before posting! * Can't post?

Since you're going to have to parametrize everything from scratch, any of the force fields can work depending on how straightforward it will be for you to do this work.

The CHARMM force field should cover all of this, though not in a pre-constructed residue. The parameters should all be there, so it shouldn't be hard to put one together. We're just putting together and testing the glycoprotein and glycolipid force fields (recently converted into GROMACS format) and we'll release them soon, but if you're OK with a beta, email me off-list. -Justin -- == Justin A.

[gmx-users] Running gromacs on Rocks cluster
Dear all,I am running into a problem running gromacs in parallel mode on a rocks cluster using CentOS. When I specify N processors on a single node, it works fine, but when I specify N processors that would require it to span multiple nodes, it runs the same simulation on each node independently rather than having the nodes work together on a single simulation. For installation, I basically followed the procedure here:Compile and run GROMACS 4.5.3 in the Intel® Cluster Ready Reference Recipe S5520UR-ICR1.1-ROCKS5.3-CENTOS5.4-C2 v1.0 | Intel® Developer Zone | | | | | | | | | Compile and run GROMACS 4.5.3 in the Intel® Cluster Ready Reference Recipe S5520UR-ICR1.1-...In this article I will show you how to compile GROMACS 4.5.3 using the latest Open Source Intel Cluster Ready Reference Design S5520UR-ICR1.1-ROCKS5.3-CENTOS5.4-C2 v1.0 | | | | View on software.intel.com | Preview by Yahoo | | | | | except that I am using gromacs 5.0, open mpi, and CentOS 7 Maybe I need to specify each node (hostname) somehow? I have a feeling that I'm missing something really basic so thanks in advance for whatever help you can offer.

[gmx-users] regarding glycolipids parameters for GROMACS
Dear gromacs users, I was wondering, are they glycolipids (MGDG more specifically) parameters availably for gromacs package? it doesn’t matter for which forcefield they were constructed.

Re: [gmx-users] Bond connectivity not found during visualization in VMD

I have simulated the same DNA in this force field multiple times but for inserting CNT in the system I modified the aminoacids.rtp file according to the bond and atom types mentioned in the PDB I created. I used the aromatic atomtype CA and HP for CNT which is consistent with literature J. Chem. Phys. 136, 175101 (2012). But there is one problem. When I want to visualize the .gro file of the hybrid I can see the bonds between atoms in the DNA while the atoms in the CNT are appearing as only spheres without any bond connection. I am using VMD for visualizing the structures. I feel that there is some error in the [bonds] directive in the aminoacids.rtp file a part of which is shown below. VMD guesses what it thinks the bonds are.

[gmx-users] Appropriate Force Field for Dendrimer-Drug Systems
Dear all, I am going to investigate the interaction between poly(amidoamine) dendrimers with different generations, cores, and surface groups (NH2, COOH, OH, etc) and some low soluble drugs such as curcumines and chalcones. So, I should perform a productive MD run on the dendrimer nanostructures and then dock drug into dendrimer and subsequently I should perform a productive MD on dendrimer-drug complexes. But, I couldn't find an appropriate FF for this purpose. What FF in GROMACS do you think can work for me?
