Thank you Mark for reply.

as you said ...
Depends whether rigidity or scaling make more sense in your model of
real physics, which depends what's in your system.

My system is generally consist of proteins or peptides ( single ,
double or many)..

I am using option com Is it right

As per your answer in these archieve...
http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2011-November/065815.html


Under NPT the box size changes each step. You are using position
restraints to a pre-defined set of reference coordinates. This option
allows you to choose how those *reference coordinates* should change
when the box size changes (respectively do not scale them at all, scale
them all, or scale their COM but leave their internal geometry fixed).
Position restraints are then applied using the updated reference
coordinates.


In some archives I found if any one used freeze group
suggested to use refcoord_scaling = no


When we applied position restrain, the position of backbone atom is restrained..
I make my assumption as like follow..
No = no scalling in position of atoms.(system maintain rigidity).
all  = the system bcome flexible

com= ? ( scalling com means changing com co-ordinates or something else)




I get confused


Please accept my apology for stupid question
Please help to come out through the confusion.

With best wishes and regards

Probably. That's up to you. Only you know your overall objective about 
why you want to use PR and NPT.

There's a definition in manual 7.3... what else are you asking for?

Dear shima and Justin,

These error is come on Gromacs 4.5.5 at the time of NPT if
refcoord_scaling option not used..

But it is not come on Gromacs 4.5.4 when you not use  refcoord_scaling
option at npt

Is any one else has same experience?
I really surprised by my observation  

With best wishes and regards

New features, bug fixes, and checks are introduced all the time.  This 
particular check was introduced in September 2011, just before the release of 
4.5.5, so you will not get the error when using 4.5.4.

Hi Justin ,

Thank you for immediate reply and providing the link.

But I am wonder for following things...

For protein simulation in your lysozyme tutorial we use
refcoord_scaling = com
In lipid tutorial also same one..

So Is there are any case when to use
refcoord_scaling no or all .??

Is there any way to find out which option to use when

How all the things going to affect the result

I goes trough archive but not find satisfactory answer...
I am looking for clear and simple explanation...


Thank you in advance..

Thinking about it :-)

Using position restraints ensures you do not reach the NPT ensemble. 
Whatever option you choose, you will need to simulate further without 
your position restraints to reach equilibrium. You should focus on 
minimizing the need for them, by making your system have the right 
density to start with. Then the volume change will be negligible, and 
the difference between these options likewise.

Yes, and there are several posts in the list archive explaining its origin, 
interpretation, and solution.



The warning is :

WARNING 1 [file NPT.mdp]:
   You are using pressure coupling with absolute position restraints, this
   will give artifacts. Use the refcoord_scaling option.



You need to set a sensible value for the quoted option.  Consult the manual and 
list archive.

OK, thanks.
But please let me know something:
Is the pressure coupling with absolute position restraints is an option to 
fix a volume significantly? If yes, then It's me to think about  keeping fix 
the volume of my system or not.
Thanks, believe me I got this point through the mailing list :-)

You can't have constant pressure and constant volume.  If you don't set 
refcoord_scaling appropriately, you will have artifacts and potential instabilities.
