[gmx-users] Umbrella sampling without pull

Himy question is , can we use Umbrella Sampling without Pulling, Is it possible? i know the concept of Umbrella sampling and Replica Exchange, i have performed solvation of different small molecules in water and calculated energies. some of results are not good, so how can i improve these

Thanks, it worked! I couldn’t find anything in the documentation/manual as to how the groups to be freezed are named. For my case, I want to freeze the protein heavy atoms and ytterbium ions. In that case, would I do freezegrp = Protein-H, YB and freezedim = Y Y Y Y Y Y? Best, Irem > On

I've never understood it, but when your system gets more complicated it is often necessary to use flexible water during minimization. define = -DFLEXIBLE for most water molecules. You can remove this for the MD, but it is for me sometimes necessary for EM. You have nearly unlimited options for

I did, and I have a more specific question: what options do I have for specifying freeze groups? Right now I’m trying Protein-H. I also have a specific kind of ion that I’d like to freeze. The energy minimization step fails, as GROMACS complains that it can’t settle a water molecule (which is

What did you set for refcoord-scaling ? How are you treating volume/pressure? Please post a full .mdp file. If you want, you can simply fix the positions and not let them move at all with freezegrps etc. From:

Possibilities that come to mind: (1) absolute position restraints (2) pull code distance restraints of each arm separately to the bottom of the U (3) put 2x U-shaped proteins in the same box. It takes longer to simulate, but you get twice the sampling (4) go back to the drawing board (this is

Since ice is a crystal, you can build a crystalline unit cell by hand (the unit cell will have one or two water molecules, so it's pretty easy to do it by hand, you just have to be careful to use the same atom ordering as the topology) and replicate it using gmx genconf so the crystal has the

Hi, I have a simulation in which I want to keep the protein coordinates fixed. I have tried using force constraints of strength 1000, 5000, and 1. With 5000, there are about 100-150 atoms (out of ~1700) that drift more than 0.4A away from their equilibrium positions. This number increases

Okay, so... I have a U shaped protein and the diameter of the U is larger than half the shortest box vector. And it is already a huge box. I want to prevent the U from straightening out. My attempts at distance restraints fail because the shortest distance between the ends of the U is across the

Dear Brett, MOD refers to the modulus operator. For example, trjconv -f infile.xvg -s infile.tpr -dt 1000 -o outfile.xvg will downsample a trajectory and save only the frames at multiples of 1000 ps (0 ps, 1000 ps, 2000 ps, …), assuming that infile.xvg starts at 0 ps. Kind regards, Erik > On
