[gmx-users] Free energy calculations with pull code and umbrella sampling

2015-02-09 Thread Kortzak, Daniel
Hi All,

I have one quick questions about free energy calculations via pull 
code+umbrella sampling. (see below for some further information on what I am 
trying)
First of all I think Justin is right umbrella sampling is much more 
straightforward. In particular in my situation where I see spontaneous binding 
at the site I am interested in, i.e. I already have a pathway of the ion to the 
binding site.
So what I would do now is: Skip the pull code and just use the pathway I 
already have for the umbrella sampling. Again my question is: Is this sensible?
Of course I have to check if the spacing of the pathway is close enough (output 
frequency of the xtc was 10ps) but on first sight I think it is, I could easily 
construct ~30 intermediates from the data I already have.
If I need more intermediates my approach would be to use frames I already have 
and only pull between the positions of those frames instead of pulling the 
whole way from the binding site to the bulk.

 Dear All,

 I want to calculate the free energy of binding of a single sodium ion to a 
 protein. I want to do this by decoupling the ion in the binding site (with 
 the couple-moltype approach). The work-flow I have in mind is roughly:

 1. Start with ion in binding site
 2. Turn on position restraints (since this only one atom I don't have to 
 care about orientation etc.)
 3. Decouple
 (And do the same for a ion in bulk solution in another simulation.)

 First of all is this sensible or are there better ways of doing this?


Wouldn't just using the pull code to do umbrella sampling be a much more
straightforward approach?  You don't have to deal with compensating for
artifacts associated with the restraint potential during decoupling and 
removing
a charge from the system.

return color[0], value

# Read in lines until we fidn the start of the array
meta = [xpm.readline()]
while not meta[-1].startswith(static char *gromacs_xpm[]):

# The next line will contain the dimensions of the array
dim = xpm.readline()
# There are four integers surrounded by quotes
nx, ny, nc, nb = [int(i) for i in unquote(dim).split()]

# The next dim[2] lines contain the color definitions
# Each pixel is encoded by dim[3] bytes, and a comment

 Which is the best way to get from the xpm matrix the diagonal plotted in

 Therefore i want to use g_rms with the option -f2 as in the following

 g_rms -f trajout.trr -f2 ../2/trajout.trr  -n -o

 In g_rms -h it says that this generates a comparison matrix of one

 Only the normal rmsd.xvg but it seems as it is calculated to the

 Could anyone explain me how I execute this command correctly?

If you're using the pull code, yes you are.  There's a force constant associated 
with the spring that is applying the umbrella (harmonic) potential.  If that's 
not clear, stop everything you're doing and read every paper and book chapter 
you can find so you understand what you're doing rather than just typing in what 
a tutorial said.



Could any user suggest any source / literature for choosing restraint
forces for DNA/protein systems ?



There is a wealth of information on umbrella sampling, steered MD, etc.  Google 
will show you in seconds.



Regarding window setup, is it the spacing of the windows ?



Possibly.


Except for simulation time is there any other method for increasing
sampling ?



Time is the primary issue here (as in most any simulation).

You need to assess convergence like you would for any type of system.  Most
of your peaks look rocky, so that generally indicates insufficient
sampling, poor window setup, suboptimal restraint force constant, or some
combination of those.

Don't think that 10 ns is some magic number, either.  It worked for that
system after I did a bunch of checking and the result was converged.  Some
umbrella sampling takes way more time.

 Dear Mark,

 I've been researching about energy groups and I think that it isn't the
 solution for my problems.
 The background of my question is the following:
 I'm currently working with the people that develops ACEMD and because of
 that I've got access to some information that ACEMD uses for its
 calculations.
 For each system that I simulate, I've got the list of all the pairs of
 atoms that must be excluded in the nonbonded calculations (e.g. atoms that
 are bound, 1-3 bound atoms and so on)
 On the other hand, I also have a list of all the pairs that must be
 included in the nonbonded calculations (1-n bound atoms, for n=4 and so
 on)


grompp handles these details in response to the nrexcl setting in the .top
- there's a few lines of docs in chapter 5 somewhere.


 The point is that I need to use that information (and more info that ACEMD
 provides me) to generate a .gro and .top file in order to be able to run
 the systems both in ACEMD and in Gromacs.

 When I perform a SPE of a system in both ACEMD and Gromacs, the bond, angle
 and dihedral energies are approximately equals in both, but Coulomb and VDW
 energies are very very different and this is driving me crazy.


I think this has come up on the list before, perhaps even with ACEMD.
Recent versions of GROMACS, particularly with the Verlet cutoff scheme,
shift the potential across its whole range by the value it takes at the
cutoff, so that it is the integral of the force. Not all packages do this,
but you have to do it consistently if you want the comparison.

Mark

Hoping that you can help me, if any of you need more information about the
 .gro, the .top or the information that ACEMD provides me, don't hesitate in
 contact me.

 Thank you very much in advance.

Re: [gmx-users] Cluster recommendations

2015-02-09 Thread Szilárd Páll
Note that perf/W or perf/buck of a certain simulation on a certain
hardware can be quite misleading. Currently we balance CPU-GPU load by
shifting long-range electrostatics work to the short-range kernels.
This involves a tradeoff which does not always give the benefit one
may expect and that's because with the cut-off scaling the GPU load
increases much more than the gain in total performance (and this will
likely show in the power consumption too).

E.g. for a 15% cut-off scaling you'll get nearly 1.5x (=1.15^3)
increase in GPU work, but probably only ~5-7% performance improvement.
More importantly however, with a GPU that's only 2/3s of the
performance of the first one you get 10% lower performance. To put
that in perspective, that's roughly the performance difference between
a GTX 770 and 780 Ti.

So if a GTX 770 gives a balanced run with the CPU of your choice, than
using a 780 Ti may not be the most advantageous thing to do as the
latter costs twice as much as the former. It is also rather difficult
(and borderline unfair) to make comparisons between a less two CPUs
that have very different performance (and cost) by pairing both with
the same GPU!

 Hey Karsten,

 Just another question. What do you think will be the performance difference
 between two gromacs runs with a ~100k atoms system like the one I mentioned
 on my first email :

 - 1 server with 4 AMD processors, 16 cores each (64 cores) with no GPU
 - 1 server with 4 AMD processors, 16 cores each (64 cores) with one GTX 980
 GPU
 - 1 server with 2 Intel processors, 10 cores each (20 cores) like the ones
 you mentioned, with one or two GTX 980 GPU.

 I'm not interested in exact performance numbers, I just need to understand
 the logistics behind the CPU/GPU combinations in order to make an
 inteligent cluster purchase.
 I never benchmarked 64-core AMD nodes with GPUs. With a 80 k atoms test
 system using a 2 fs time step I get
 24 ns/d on 64 AMD   cores 6272
 16 ns/d on 32 AMD   cores 6380
 36 ns/d on 32 AMD   cores 6380   with 1x GTX 980
 40 ns/d on 32 AMD   cores 6380   with 2x GTX 980
 27 ns/d on 20 Intel cores 2680v2
 52 ns/d on 20 Intel cores 2680v2 with 1x GTX 980
 62 ns/d on 20 Intel cores 2680v2 with 2x GTX 980

 So unless you can get the AMD nodes very cheap, probably the 20-core
 Intel nodes with 1 or 2 GPUs will give you the best performance and the best

 Hi David,

 we are just finishing an evaluation to find out which is the optimal
 hardware for Gromacs setups. One of the input systems is an 80,000 atom
 membrane channel system and thus nearly exactly what you want
 to compute.

 The biggest benefit you will get by adding one or two consumer-class
 GPUs
 to your nodes (e.g. NVIDIA GTX 980). That will typically double your
 performace-to-price ratio. This is true for Intel as well as for AMD
 nodes, however the best ratio in our tests was observed with 10-core
 Intel CPUs (2670v2, 2680v2) in combination with a GTX 780Ti or 980,
 ideally two of those CPUs with two GPUs on a node.


 Was there a difference between 2670v2 (2.5 GHz) and 2680v2  (2.8 GHz) ?
 I'm
 wondering if those 0,3 GHz are significative. Or the 0,5 GHz compared to
 2690v2 for the matter. There’s a significative difference in price
 indeed.
 Usually the percent improvement for Gromacs performance is not as much
 as the percent improvement in clock speed, so the cheaper ones will
 give you a higher performance-to-price ratio.


 I'm also wondering if the performance would be better with 16 core Intels
 instead of 10 core. I.e E5-2698 v3.
 Didn’t test those.


 I would like to know which other tests have you done. What about AMD ?
 We tested AMD 6380 with 1-2 GTX 980 GPUs, which gives about the same
 performance-to-price ratio as a 10 core Intel 2680v2 node with one GTX 980.
 The Intel node gives you a higher per-node performance, though.


 Unless you want to buy expensive FDR14 Infiniband, scaling across two
 or more of those nodes won’t be good (~0.65 parallel efficiency across
 2,
 ~0.45 across 4 nodes using QDR infiniband), so I would advise against
 it and go for more sampling on single nodes.


 Well, that puzzles me. Why is it that you get poor performance ? Are you
 talking about pure CPU jobs over infiniband, or are you talking about
 CPU+GPU jobs over infiniband ?
 For a given network (e.g. QDR Infiniband), the scaling is better the lower
 the performance of the individual nodes. So for CPU-only nodes you
 will get a better scaling than for CPU+GPU nodes, which have a

[gmx-users] A question regarding electrostatic and coulomb energies.

2015-02-09 Thread IÑIGO SAENZ
Dear Mark,

I've been researching about energy groups and I think that it isn't the
solution for my problems.
The background of my question is the following:
I'm currently working with the people that develops ACEMD and because of
that I've got access to some information that ACEMD uses for its
calculations.
For each system that I simulate, I've got the list of all the pairs of
atoms that must be excluded in the nonbonded calculations (e.g. atoms that
are bound, 1-3 bound atoms and so on)
On the other hand, I also have a list of all the pairs that must be
included in the nonbonded calculations (1-n bound atoms, for n=4 and so on)

The point is that I need to use that information (and more info that ACEMD
provides me) to generate a .gro and .top file in order to be able to run
the systems both in ACEMD and in Gromacs.

When I perform a SPE of a system in both ACEMD and Gromacs, the bond, angle
and dihedral energies are approximately equals in both, but Coulomb and VDW
energies are very very different and this is driving me crazy.

Hoping that you can help me, if any of you need more information about the
.gro, the .top or the information that ACEMD provides me, don't hesitate in
contact me.

Thank you very much in advance.

Iñigo S.

Re: [gmx-users] g_rms with two trajectories

2015-02-09 Thread Julian
Dear Erik,

I have the matrix and I converted it with xpm2ps into a coloured image.

I want to compare the ligands at the same time  so I would be interested
in the diagonal.

Which is the best way to get from the xpm matrix the diagonal plotted in 2d
as a function of time and rmsd value?

Best regards,
Julian

Analyze however much time you like.


If not, is there another possibility to force the simulations to complete?



If by complete you mean terminate ahead of schedule that's what Ctrl+C or 
whatever queue commands (e.g. qdel) are for.

I wish to lessen the amount of time for each of these simulations from 10 ns to 
6 ns. These simulations are already up to around 5 ns, is it possible to change 
the time to 6 ns without altering the md_umbrella.mdp file and starting agin? 
Also, will this reduction have any major impacts on the quality/efficacy of the

Use mdrun command-line option -nsteps to override the number of steps specified
in the .tpr file, but you can't do this if the runs are in progress.

[gmx-users] pH during free energy calculation

2015-02-09 Thread vivek sharma
Dear Experts and users,
I am running simulation for solvation free energy calculation using
thermodynamic integration approach (as mentioned in Justin's tutorial). My
system consist of a cation molecule, an anion molecule and bulk of solvent
molecules.
I want to understand the pH of my system, what will be the default pH for
such a system? It will be helpful if anybody can comment on such a
simulation and help in understanding pH behavior of such systems?

Waiting for useful comments and insights from the community.


regards,
Vivek

Is there a reason you think you shouldn't?  What outcome do you expect?  Does 
this outcome meet that expectation?  Does the structure look sensible?

However , I want the H-bonds formed over the entire simulation length frame

I was thinking of extracting every frame (using trjconv) from my total of
501 frames and running g_hbond on each of the frames. But that seems to be
a laborious process. Is there any way out ?



Use -hbm -hbn to write an H-bond existence matrix, and use the index file 
created by -hbn to map out which ones are which.

Re: [gmx-users] pH during free energy calculation

Dear Experts and users,
I am running simulation for solvation free energy calculation using
thermodynamic integration approach (as mentioned in Justin's tutorial). My
system consist of a cation molecule, an anion molecule and bulk of solvent
molecules.
I want to understand the pH of my system, what will be the default pH for
such a system? It will be helpful if anybody can comment on such a
simulation and help in understanding pH behavior of such systems?

Waiting for useful comments and insights from the community.



There are no exchangeable protons in a classical MD simulation, so there is no 
pH.  There are constant pH simulations, but those are fundamentally different. 
See the numerous discussions on this topic in the archive.

Re: [gmx-users] g_rms with two trajectories

2015-02-09 Thread Erik Marklund
Dear Julian,

I see no other means than writing a script to parse out the diagonal. The xpm 
format is quite human readable so I don’t think it will take you long to figure 
out how to do.

Kind regards,
Erik

Dear Erik,

I have the matrix and I converted it with xpm2ps into a coloured image.

I want to compare the ligands at the same time  so I would be interested
in the diagonal.

Which is the best way to get from the xpm matrix the diagonal plotted in 2d
as a function of time and rmsd value?

Best regards,
Julian

Dear Gromacs Users,

I want to calculate the rmsd between two ligands - the system is exactly
the same, just the ligand binding conformations are different.

Therefore i want to use g_rms with the option -f2 as in the following
command:

g_rms -f trajout.trr -f2 ../2/trajout.trr  -n -o

In g_rms -h it says that this generates a comparison matrix of one
trajectory versus the other but I don't get this matrix.
Only the normal rmsd.xvg but it seems as it is calculated to the starting
snapshot and the f2-trajectory file is not considered.

Could anyone explain me how I execute this command correctly?

Thanks and best regards!

Re: [gmx-users] g_rms with two trajectories

2015-02-09 Thread Smith, Micholas D.
Juilan,

A quick way to do this is with an awk script, such as:

awk '{print $NR}' (your matrix.dat file here). This will print the diagonal of 
the matrix. If you want the one from the .xpm file you need to use something 
like:

awk '{if($0!~/*/){print substr($0,counter+2,1),counter++}}' Though the output 
will be letters that correspond to different rmsd values (as shown at the top 
of the .xpm file) which will require you to modify this script more to include 
a look-up to get back the number values (hence why using the matrix.dat file 
may be easier).


Kind Regards,

Micholas
