[gmx-users] How to calculate the MSD of center of mass of molecules
Hello everyone, In my simulation, I want to calculate the MSD of COM of some molecules using *gmx msd* command. >From the Gromacs manual, *For molecules consisting of more than one atom, ri can be taken as the center of mass positions of the molecules. In that case, you should use an index file with molecule numbers.* It seems that all i need to do is create an index file with molecule numbers. Following is my procedure: *echo 'res_com of resname Tf2N' | gmx select -s nvt-msd.tpr -on mol.ndx* *gmx msd -f nvt-msd.xtc -s nvt-msd.tpr -n mol.ndx -o msd-com* However, it does not produce the result what I want. The resulting msd-com.xvg is not the MSD of COM of Tf2N molecule. It seems that mol.ndx has not been recognize as molecule numbers.

[gmx-users] Area per lipid through the time lipid membranes and mixed membranes
Hello gromacs user: I obtained the average area per lipid for dppc and dppe membrane, also for mixed membranes of dppc/dppe/embedded molecule. But i want to obtain the diagram of the area per lipid through the time, the course of my simulation for my dppc, dppe membranes and mixed membranes with a molecule inside. Is there any command in gromacs or what should i do?

Re: [gmx-users] Problem with combining the .edr files
Hi, Judging from your start times, you're concatenating apples with oranges :-) In this case, probably NVT equilibration with NPT production, or similar. Arguably, concatenating the trr files in that case is also conceptually wrong, even if the file format is not robust enough to hint that you're trying to do something that will leave you with a file whose contents have an interpretation that is somewhere between unclear and wrong. edr is actually smart enough to perhaps stop you doing something that isn't useful.

Re: [gmx-users] Gromacs installation on GPU
Hi, The more simple way to cater for all possibilities is to configure with GPU support the first time. mdrun observes whether there are actually GPUs at run time and executes accordingly. But as Justin says, this requires that you install CUDA when you might not use it, which is usually more inconvenient than a second GROMACS install when you later decide you need GPU support.

In the umbrella sampling tutorial it says that POSRES is used to keep one chain as an immobile reference in the pulling procedure. What is the effect of POSRES? Does it keep the molecule center of mass fix or does it restrain the positions of atoms inside the molecules? According to the manual I tought the latter one, but then I don't understand how this helps in having an immobile reference. By applying a harmonic biasing potential to each non-hydrogen atom with an origin for that potential at the starting coordinates, the motion of each heavy atom is restricted. What problem would one have if not using the POSRES? In the tutorial's case, the strength of the many hydrogen bonds between the peptide chains would simply causing the entire assembly to be dragged across the simulation box rather than inducing dissociation of one peptide. Larger biasing forces lead to distortion of the structure. The use of restraints in the tutorial (and corresponding paper, please read it as technical aspects are explained in more detail with references to other amyloid papers that use similar approaches) is not necessarily applicable to other umbrella sampling studies. In the simulations I performed, when I pull one molecule, the one I restrained using POSRES keeps its center of mass stable and has only small changes in its internal structure. Is it the expected behaviour? Yes, but whether or not you need restraints is the larger question. For instance, I see no reason to use the tutorial's approach for a protein-ligand complex, in which the interactions will be comparatively weak (and also require a different pull vector setup, anyway). -Justin -- == Justin A.
