Re: [gmx-users] number of coordinates does not match after POSRES

2017-06-07 Thread Simon Kit Sang Chu
Hi Justin,

Thanks for your advice. Since we are using a forcefield which could only
incorporate with gromacs 3.3.1, we have no choice but to prepare the system
in the old version, then run it with the latest version of gromacs.

Yes, indeed the option should be with -DPOSRES instead. And the topology
file should #include chainA-pace.top, then chainA_posres.itp in this
alternative manner. It seems that writing all chainA chainB.top first and
all pores.itp later would not do it. Please tell me if I am wrong.

 Therefore, the option POSRES somehow changes everything.

 The topology file is put here. Is there anything I have written

[gmx-users] Technqiues for Applying Assymmetric Ion Concentrations?

2017-06-07 Thread Sanim Rahman
Hello Users,

I am planning to do a bilayer simulation with asymmetric ion concentrations
using slab boundaries. I am trying to modify the concentration of each
ionic species on each side of the bilayer, however, I am struggling to find
a technique that will allow me to effectively manipulate the concentrations
of each side of the bilayer. Are there any suggestions on how to do this? I
would imagine splitting the system in half at the hydrophobic core and then
using the genion command for each half would do the trick but I am unaware
of any commands that will allow me to split the system as such.

The membrane system that I am using is from CHARMM-GUI.

I will truly appreciate your input.

Regards,
Sanim Rahman

[gmx-users] Remove all but N closest water molecules from protein

2017-06-07 Thread Jose Borreguero
Dear Gromacs users,

I'm a newbie with Gromacs. Is there a Gromacs native tool that will allow
me to create a new *.gro file containing the protein and the N closest
water molecules to the protein
​, starting from a system of a solvated protein​
?

Best,
Jose Borreguero

 Dear GMX users,
 
 I have a pure solvent system A with 100 molecules. Then I randomly removed

 molecule B is slightly larger than molecule A. So in some cases, I couldn't

Re: [gmx-users] problem with "gmx rdf": It cannot find the center of mass of a reference group

Finally I managed to find the exact syntax for the rdf calculation by
adding " -ref 'com of group g1'  " at the end of the command-line:
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro   -s cgs.tpr   -o rdf.xvg  -xy  -ref 'com of group g1'

[gmx-users] problem with "gmx rdf": It cannot find the center of mass of a reference group

2017-06-07 Thread Sajjad Kavyani
Dear experts,
Recently I ask a question entitled "RDF of a group around CNT axis" in the
mailing list in order to find proper command-line for it it turns out that
the "-xy" option can help
But I encounter an unusual problem therefore I decided to ask another
question

It turns out that the gmx rdf cannot find the com coordinate of the CNT (as
reference) because as I choose different command-lines with various
"-selrpos" arguments, all of the results gave me EXACTLY the SAME result
which all of them are wrong! Commands like:
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro  -s md.tpr -xy  -o rdf.xvg
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro  -s md.tpr -xy  -o rdf.xvg -selrpos res_com
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro  -s md.tpr -xy  -o rdf.xvg -selrpos res_cog
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro  -s md.tpr -xy  -o rdf.xvg -selrpos mol_com
gmx rdf -f cgs.gro  -s md.tpr -xy  -o rdf.xvg -selrpos mol_cog
(CNT group has been chosen for both groups is gmx rdf)

But when I manually placed a single particle in the COM of the cnt (in the
cgs.gro) and then select this single particle as reference group, the gmx
rdf resulted the desired value!


Could you please help me to manage the problem?
How to tell the gmx rdf in order to find com of cnt without manually
placing a single particle in the input file?

Hi all,

In one case, the ion is K+, in another Na+. In both cases the results are

For sodium, the free energy away from the pore is close to zero and

when I do, I even have reasonable agreement with experiment). However, I
want to understand what is happening with the utility. My simulation times
are quite moderate (1 ns for each config).

WHAM sets the "left-most" window (i.e. smallest value of zeta) to zero and 
calculates all free energy values relative to that.  This is why you can offset 
at any given point.

Dear GMX users,

I have a pure solvent system A with 100 molecules. Then I randomly removed

insert-molecule to insert 10 molecule B into the system box. The problem is
molecule B is slightly larger than molecule A. So in some cases, I couldn't
insert the exact 10 molecules of B into the system. Is there a way to
automatically adjust the size of the box according to the radius of
molecule B, so that they can fit in? Or, is there a better solution to do
this?



Insert 10 of molecule B into an empty box, then solvate with a pre-equilibrated
box of molecule A.  Works every time.

Thank you Justin,

In this case, I will need to apply a full equilibrium process (em, nvt, npt) to 
the new system, is that right?

I am trying to avoid the long step of equilibrium as I have many systems 
corresponding to different concentrations. I was thinking if I replace a small 
number of molecule A with molecule B (the system A is very large and 
pre-equilibriumed) then I only need to apply a short time-step of NPT in order 
to let the system expand or shrink. Then I can use the new system to continue 
replacing A with B to generate a new concentration. Is this practical?

The problem is when B is slightly larger than A, I can’t insert the same number 
of B into the system. Is there way to avoid the overlapping or force the 
molecule in?
You can reduce the vdW radius of atoms to *try* to force the molecules to fit, 
but then all you've done is introduce bad clashes that have to be subjected to 
minimization and re-equilibration.  So at that point, all you've done is build 
your system in the most inefficient way possible.  By trying to avoid 
equilibration, you've necessitated it :)


Build the system the robust way - solute first, then solvent.  It's ultimately 
less work and less prone to failure.

[gmx-users] Cylinder pulling through bilayer

2017-06-07 Thread Gmx QA
Dear list

I am attempting to pull a small molecule though a bilayer using the pull
geometry cylinder with gromacs v 2016.

This is the relevant portion of my mdp-file:

pull  = yes
pull-ngroups = 2
pull-ncoords = 1
pull-coord1-groups   = 1 2
pull-group1-name = LIG
pull-group2-name = MEM
pull-coord1-type = umbrella
pull-coord1-geometry = cylinder
pull-coord1-rate = 0.1
pull-coord1-vec  = 0 0 1
pull-coord1-k= 1000
pull-coord1-start= yes
pull-coord1-init = 0
pull-cylinder-r  = 1.5

The pull-rate is very fast because I'm only doing preliminary test. At the
start, the drug molecule is in -z position compared to the membrane.

When doing grompp:

$ gmx grompp -f umbrella_md_test.mdp -c npt.gro -p topol.top -o
pull_test.tpr

The output makes no sense:
Using a fourier grid of 72x72x192, spacing 0.113 0.113 0.111
Pull group  natoms  pbc atom  distance at start  reference at t=0
   13618
   2 32500 64286-nan nm   -nan nm
Estimate for the relative computational load of the PME mesh part: 0.44
This run will generate roughly 14 Mb of data


I.e. nan's for distance. If I however switch in the mdp file so that
pull-group1-name = MEM and pull-group2-name = LIG, the distance gets
correctly calculated. But this does not seem to be what is prescribed in
the manual for cylinder pulling, where is says that the cylinder is formed
from the first group (should be the drug molecule) and through the com of
the reference group (the membrane in my case),

I think there is something I am missing?

Thanks!

Re: [gmx-users] RDF of a group around CNT axis

2017-06-07 Thread Sajjad Kavyani
I noticed that the gmx rdf some how cannot find the center of mass (COM)
for the CNT because after that I manually put a single particle in the COM
of the CNT and calculated the rdf around it (with -xy option), the gmx rdf
resulted the expected value which is a sharp peak at the radius of the cnt.
I tested all the -selrpos arguments but none of them could find the COM of
the CNT
Could you please help me to manage the problem ?

2017-06-07 Thread João Henriques
Just one more thing. If you're following Justin's tutorial, I guess you're
using lysozyme. This protein will not deviate very much from it's crystal
structure at 27ºC, let alone at -40ºC (*in the context of a molecular
dynamics simulation**). I understand that it may be possible to
experimentally unfold this protein reversibly using low temperature and
high pressure, but this may be unfeasible to perform using a regular
protein force field and water model. It will not behave as you expect.

* I should add that this is a very stable protein and the disulfide bonds
(which cannot be broken during the simulation) make it almost impossible to
unfold it completely at any temperature using molecular dynamics.

It is as Joao has said - that's just a coordinate file of a pre-equilibrated box 
of water that was generated using the SPC water model.  You can indeed use it to 
simulate other 3-point water model systems following an initial equilibration.




I am trying to see if my protein will be denatured in cold condition.



The properties of the water model are going to be critical here.  For instance, 
SPC has a maximum density around -41 C, which is obviously very unphysical 
(water has a real maximum density at +4 C) so if you're seeking to model 
behavior at -40 C, then SPC is a very bad choice because its properties are not 
realistic.  I suggest you investigate the many possible water models that exist 
and find one or more that might reproduce some of the most important properties. 
 None of them gets everything right.

If you're having a problem with a specific version, you should try something 
*newer* rather than significantly older.  Your posts about that issue went 
unresolved because there's not nearly enough information about what you did to 
install 5.1.4 (hardware, OS, compilers, your cmake command, etc).


Try with 2016.3 for something modern and actively being maintained.  It's a lot 
more effective for the developers to troubleshoot issues with the current 
version than one that is not even officially supported any more.

Re: [gmx-users] Simulate protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer

2017-06-07 Thread João Henriques
Hello,

"spc216.gro" is not a water model, it's just a pre-equilibrated simulation
box (300 K and 1 bar) with the coordinates of 216 3-site water molecules.
SPC and TIP3P are two examples of 3-site water models. Water model
properties are well studied and tabled (e.g.
http://aip.scitation.org/doi/10.1063/1.1862245).

I am no expert in pure water simulations, but I doubt 3-site water models
can reproduce ice in a realistic way. Will the force field even hold at
that temperature? I really don't understand why you'd want to try something
like this. However, and to finish, there's one thing I can tell you for
sure: your system will be much more "stable" at -40ºC. Why, because it will
barely move from it's initial conformation, due to the very low thermal
energy. In sum, you'll spend computational time sampling almost nothing.

Best regards,
João

Re: [gmx-users] RDF of a group around CNT axis

2017-06-07 Thread SRINIVAS MUSHNOORI
If I understand you correctly: you want to calculate the RDF of a certain
group (NOT part of the nanotube) around the central axis of a nanotube?

The way I do these calculations is to use the gmx trjconv tool to isolate a
trajectory file of ONLY the gropus I am interested in and run my
calculations on that.
If you expect to see one peak but see many that might mean that the RDF is
picking up groups that you don't want it to.

Hope that helps,
Srinivas

Re: [gmx-users] mdp options in GROMACS 4.5.5

Dear Mark,
I was using version 5.1.4, but I got this error when using "gmx mdrun":

I tried version 5.0.4, too, and I got the same error. Hence, I decided to use 
the 4.5.5 version which does not give me that error.

[gmx-users] Simulate protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer

2017-06-07 Thread ZHANG Cheng
Dear Gromacs,
I would like to simulate the protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer, to 
see if it becomes more stable than the elevated temperature (e.g. 65 C). Can I 
ask what is the valid temperature range for water "spc216.gro" ? If I run the 
simulation at -40 C, does it still assume the system as liquid state instead of 
frozen state? Thank you.


Yours sincerely

[gmx-users] RDF of a group around CNT axis

2017-06-07 Thread Sajjad Kavyani
Dear experts,
I want to calculate rdf of a certain group around the axis of a cnt, but I
do not know what are the proper parameters to choose in the command-line.
To test the parameters, I calculated the rdf of cnt itself around its axis
which must be a sharp peak at the cnt radius.
I tested the following: (both selection groups of reference and rdf are CNT)
gmx rdf -f md.gro -s md.tpr  -o trdf.xvg -xy -selrpos mol_com
gmx rdf -f md.gro -s md.tpr  -o trdf.xvg -xy -selrpos res_com
gmx rdf -f md.gro -s md.tpr  -o trdf.xvg -xy -selrpos whole_res_com
gmx rdf -f md.gro -s md.tpr  -o trdf.xvg -xy -selrpos whole_mol_com

BUT all the results are the same!!! and surprisingly they have multiple
sharp peaks at different ranges, which I expected just one peak at the
radius of the CNT 
It is notable that the CNT is aligned to z axis.
(the first two peaks are listed below):

Hi,

gmx mdrun -multidir is a good way to run a group of similar but otherwise

that couples them, such as replica exchange. gmx mdrun -multi is a bit less

Dear Users,

I have doubts regarding simulating multiple systems using mdrun '-multi'

I have seen that people have used this option for replica exchange (with
'-replex' option, of course) where information are exchanged between the
systems. In case of different systems (such as different windows in
Umbrella sampling simulations, liquid water systems at different
temperatures, etc.), as per my understanding (from user manual), there
is no exchange of information between the systems and simulations are
run without any influence of each other. Am I correct here? or is there
any issue when different systems are simulated using -multi/multidir
options? Any information regarding this would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

helical peptides.

I am using "AMBER99SB-ILDN protein, nucleic AMBER94 (Lindorff-Larsen et
al., Proteins 78, 1950-58, 2010)" forcefield.

Over the course of simulation, the 3-10 helix is changing to alpha as
suggested by do_dssp (I am using the newer version of DSSP).

Thanx in advance for the help.

Re: [gmx-users] number of coordinates does not match after POSRES

Hi Mark,

I think I solved the problem. It should be DPOSRES instead of POSRES. The
define command should be implemented as "define = -DPOSRES". Finally, the
chainX_porse.itp should be included in the master topology file, not
chainX-pace.top.

Thanks again by the way.

Dear Justin

I think I have confused so much.
Let me try to put it in simple way.

1.Can I compare Rmsd , rg , rmsf of protein-ligand complex with that of
monomer(just protein) to explain stability?



RMSD may be an indicator of something going on but by itself is useless.

Rg is only useful if the protein undergoes a large structural change or 
unfolding.

RMSF can be useful if the ensembles are converged; it is subject to big 
variation if you have any non-equilibrium sampling.



2. Time step of monomer(just protein) simulation is 150ns and
protein-ligand complex is 50ns. In this case is it valid to compare the
above analyses between monomer and complex?


Compare like with like.  I wouldn't believe comparisons between single 
trajectories of differing lengths have any meaning.


-Justin



Dear Justin I apologise if I am not to your mark to explain in better way.

I'm not following.  You're talking about monomers and time intervals as if
they're interchangeable.  What's the story?  Do you have a multimer?  Are
you

Is it possible to compare my RMSD, RMSF, ROG analysis of complex system

This is up to you to determine in light of whatever your goals are in
running
the simulation.  What are you trying to test or determine?  Unless the
protein's
stability is seriously impacted by the ligand, RMSD and Rg are useless.
RMSF
might be useful if there are motions that are amplified or damped by

ligand

binding.  Run the analysis and see what happens on a per-residue basis.

Hi,

We can't tell, because position restraints are an attribute of
moleculetypes and those are hidden in your itp files and you didn't share
which moleculetype grompp reported was the problem. Please copy and paste
terminal output to make a useful description.

You'll need to include the position restraint file appropriate to each

[gmx-users] mdrun with multi option

2017-06-07 Thread Debdip Bhandary

Dear Users,

I have doubts regarding simulating multiple systems using mdrun '-multi' 
option.


I have seen that people have used this option for replica exchange (with 
'-replex' option, of course) where information are exchanged between the 
systems. In case of different systems (such as different windows in 
Umbrella sampling simulations, liquid water systems at different 
temperatures, etc.), as per my understanding (from user manual), there 
is no exchange of information between the systems and simulations are 
run without any influence of each other. Am I correct here? or is there 
any issue when different systems are simulated using -multi/multidir 
options? Any information regarding this would be appreciated.


Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Debdip Bhandary

Re: [gmx-users] Ramachandran plot

2017-06-07 Thread Mark Abraham
Hi,

This is why you should actually copy and paste your command lines so you
don't waste your time ;-) And mine.

Unless you wrote your entire system to your xtc file, your tpr has more
atoms than your xtc, and thus probably some more dihedrals. Make a matching
subset of your tpr using gmx convert-tpr, and use that with gmx rama -s.

Not really, it's designed for solute in water systems. But you can take any
such topology and remove the solute moleculetype and subsections.

You're not really going to use what is commonly called a force field, but
just a water model. There's lots of them, and you should choose one that
has been shown to be useful for your kind of study. That's the science
part, and your job ;-)

Sounds like your choice of dihedrals doesn't match your system. How did you
select them?

Re: [gmx-users] number of coordinates does not match after POSRES

2017-06-07 Thread Mark Abraham
Hi,

We can't tell, because position restraints are an attribute of
moleculetypes and those are hidden in your itp files and you didn't share
which moleculetype grompp reported was the problem. Please copy and paste
terminal output to make a useful description.

You'll need to include the position restraint file appropriate to each
moleculetype, of course - not the same one each time.

[gmx-users] Simulation of pure water

2017-06-07 Thread G R
Dear all,

I want to calculate the relaxation of pure water cell at room temperature
and at freezing point, monitoring its equilibration in volume and in
potential energy. I have 3 question: 1) Can I use packmol for my initial
configuration? if there is any other option,please tell me. 2) Can I use
easily pdb2gmx to generate the topology file? 3) Which Forcefield is better
for this calculation?

I'v already read some tutorial, but if you have any suggestion it woulb be
appreciated.

Thank you in advanc

[gmx-users] number of coordinates does not match after POSRES

2017-06-07 Thread Simon Kit Sang Chu
Hi,

Initially, my topology file can run grompp with .mdp and .gro. However,
after putting POSRES in my mdp, the warning "number of coordinates does not
match" and there is no coordinate recognized in my topology file anymore.
Therefore, the option POSRES somehow changes everything.

The topology file is put here. Is there anything I have written incorrectly?

[gmx-users] Ramachandran plot

2017-06-07 Thread RAHUL SURESH
Dear Users

When I try to execute ramachandran plot analysis, I get the following note
like "Dihedral around 5809,5816 not found in topology. Using mult=3"
(nearly 30-40 dihedrals). What is it about?

Input is just protein structure extended upto 150ns.
