Re: [gmx-users] How to deal with unexpected reactions in umbrella sampling?

2020-02-20 Thread Groenhof, Gerrit
Hi,

There is not much information to go with, but I can give some general remarks.

Could this not suggest that either your reaction coordinate is not suited, 
driving the system into a region of very high potential energy, from where it 
can escape though the reaction you consider unreasonable. Before embarking on 
the QM/MM umbrella sampling, did you check whether the coordinate is suitable 
in isolation?

Alternatively, the QM description may fail to capture the electronic structure 
along your coordinate. Has your QM method been validated for the reaction 
you’re studying?

Best wishes & good luck with your simulations,

Gerrit

Thank you, Quyen. I will look into this paper.

Hi,
you can think about employed multi-dimensional umbrella sampling and used
3D-WHAM to derived the PMF as professor Pander did in this paper: Petrone,
P. M., Snow, C. D., Lucent, D., & Pande, V. S. (2008). Side-chain
recognition and gating in the ribosome exit tunnel. *Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America*, *105*(43),
16549–16554. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.0801795105

I don't know whether he delivered the code for 3D-WHAM or not

Best,

[gmx-users] How to deal with unexpected reactions in umbrella sampling?

2020-02-19 Thread Qing Lv
Dear Colleagues,


I am doing an umbrella sampling of an enzymatic reaction using QM/MM. However, 
as the reaction coordinate exceeds a certain value, an unexpected reaction, 
which is obviously unreasonable, often occurs during the umbrella sampling. So, 
how to deal with such problem? The only method I can think is to impose 
additional restraints to avoid this reaction, but the additional restraints 
will probably affect the umbrella sampling (although the additional restraints 
are not related to the reaction coordinate).


Thanks,
Qing
