[gmx-users] Umbrella sampling after TMD of NAMD

2012-10-17 Thread Netaly Khazanov
Dear All, I've performed TMD simulation using NAMDprogram. I'd like to calculate PMF plot based on the frames that were taken from TMD simulations by using GROMACS. The coordinate of reaction is RMSD of backbone. The first step is to do Umbrella sampling. The question is how fix the position of

Thanks. However, I can restrain the position of backbone (x,y,z -coordinates) while running umbrella sampling and treat it like reaction coordinate. Is it right? Maybe I am missing something. pull = umbrella pull_geometry = position ;pull_dim = Y Y Y pull_start = yes pull_ngroups = 1

Thank you, Peter. Do you mean that the [atomtypes] section is not important? In other words, Gromacs will skip them if the data have been given in [pairtypes] section, isn't it? I have type the follow command: /pdb2gmx -f *.pdb -o *.gro -p *.top -ss -his grompp -v -f vac-min.mdp -c *.gro -p

It seems difficult to use RMSD as the reaction coordinate to do umbrella sampling simulations. Maybe you can try meta-dynamics in which you can use RMSD as a collective to get the free energy. It is implemented in a modified version of gromacs (GROMETA), or you can use PLUMED together with

Hi,   I am trying to compute free energy of a polymer in presence of a constant force. If I understand correctly, I need to use two pull-option here in gromacs: one for performing umbrella sampling and other for applying  constant force. But, as far as I know I can not specify two pull option

You can not have multiple reference groups or multiple types of pulling (constraint, harmonic, etc) in any version of gromacs that I am aware of. I have modified versions of gromacs 3.3.3 and 4.0.5 that we modified in-house to put a loop over the pull code so that this is possible. For v3.3.3,

It depends on how the molecules are defined in the topology file. If the coordinates of both molecules are contained in the main part of the topology file, only one position restraint file is enough and it should contain entries for all the non-hydrogen atoms in both molecules. However, if the
