Re: [gmx-users] on atomtypes

2016-05-12 Thread Brett
Dear Justin,

You see, the ligand.itp contains the HS14 information as following,



  34NT1 ADP N67   -0.859  14.0067
   35  HS141 ADPH1070.406   1.0080

   36  HS141 ADPH1170.419   1.0080



But when I run
gmx grompp -f ions.mdp -c target_solv.gro -p topol.top -o ions.tpr,

it told me the "Atomtype HS14 not found".

Will you please show me the way to have the issue settled?

Brett

[gmx-users] on atomtypes

2016-05-12 Thread Brett
Dear All,

Following is the part of the atomtypes.atp  for gromos54a7:

O  15.99940 ; carbonyl oxygen (C=O)
   OM  15.99940 ; carboxyl oxygen (CO-)
   OA  15.99940 ; hydroxyl, sugar or ester oxygen
   OE  15.99940 ; ether or ester oxygen
   OW  15.99940 ; water oxygen
N  14.00670 ; peptide nitrogen (N or NH)
   NT  14.00670 ; terminal nitrogen (NH2)
   NL  14.00670 ; terminal nitrogen (NH3)
   NR  14.00670 ; aromatic nitrogen
   NZ  14.00670 ; Arg NH (NH2)
   NE  14.00670 ; Arg NE (NH)
C  12.01100 ; bare carbon
  CH0  12.0110  ; bare sp3 carbon, 4 bound heavy atoms
  CH1  13.01900 ; aliphatic or sugar CH-group
  CH2  14.02700 ; aliphatic or sugar CH2-group
  CH3  15.03500 ; aliphatic CH3-group
  CH4  16.04300 ; methane
 CH2r  14.02700 ; CH2-group in a ring
  ...

If I need to insert a new type list for example HS14 with weight 1.0080, should 
the word description of the atomtype (for example, "CH2-group in a ring" for 
"CH2r  14.02700") should be accurate or just a kind of reminder which the 
gromacas will not read?

In addition, the atomtypes.atp is a readonly file in 
/usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top/gromos54a7.ff/. WIll you please let me 
know how to save it after the HS14 atomtype was added?

[gmx-users] on HS14 atomtype

2016-05-12 Thread Brett
Dear All,

By ADP with 54a7 force field, I got a ligand.itp, which contains atomtype HS14. 
However when I run the md by gromacs with that ligand.itp, it told me the 
"Atomtype HS14 not found".

WIll you please tell me how to make gromacs recognize the atomtype HS14?

[gmx-users] on "Invalid order for directive defaults"

2016-05-11 Thread Brett
Dear All,


In 
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors?highlight=errors#Invalid_order_for_directive_xxx,
 it writes,


"In particular, "Invalid order for directive defaults" is a result of defaults 
being set in the topology or force field files in the inappropriate location; 
the [defaults] section can only appear once and must be the first directive in 
the topology".


In the topol.top file, can I have 2 different gromacs force fields (for example 
1 amber force filed for protein and 1 gromos 54a7 for the ligand)? And if can, 
how can we process so that "[defaults] section can only appear once and must be 
the first directive in the topology", which also means, how can we process so 
that he "[defaults] section  was deleted from the second force field?

In the on-line protein-ligand md tutorial, related to the drg.itp file, there is





"Let's take a look at the [ atoms ] section of our JZ4 topology:

May I ask, for the drg.itp file, we only need contain the  [ atoms ] section, 
all we should contain every sections of the original drg.itp file?

Secondly, suppose my ligand itp was not got by the traditional gromacs 
forcefiled, in this situation should we modify the atom types database we got 
when we originally installed the gromacs to include the atom types specified 
for the ligand, or we can have the ligand.itp contains a section with the 
specific ligand atom types information supplied?

including more atoms for this charge group and make the net charge of this 
charge group 0 charge.

[gmx-users] questions on ligand.gro and ligand.itp preparation

2016-04-29 Thread Brett
Dear All,


Here I have 2 questions related to the ligand.gro and ligand.itp preparation 
for the md of protein-ligand complex.


First, we have different ways to get the ligand.itp by different serves which 
use different electronic charge assignment methods. Is any difference for the 
md result for the whole protein-ligand complex if we use ligand.itp got by 
different charge assignment methods?


Second, in the Justin on-line tutorial for the md of protein-ligand, it has the 
method to edit the complex.gro, for example the Justin tutorial final format 
was:
163ASN  C 1691   0.621  -0.740  -0.126
163ASN O1 1692   0.624  -0.616  -0.140
163ASN O2 1693   0.683  -0.703  -0.011
1JZ4 C4 1 2.429 -2.412 -0.007
1JZ4 C14 2 2.392 -2.470 -0.139
1JZ4 C13 3 2.246 -2.441 -0.181
..
5.99500   5.19182   9.66100   0.0   0.0  -2.99750   0.0   0.0   
0.0


My question is, suppose we have an artificial lysozyme which contains 2 
lysozyme subunit, each subunit binding one JZ4, then how do we edit the 
complex.gro? Does the final complex.gro change into something like?


163ASN  C 1691   0.621  -0.740  -0.126
163ASN O1 1692   0.624  -0.616  -0.140
163ASN O2 1693   0.683  -0.703  -0.011
1JZ4 C4 1 2.429 -2.412 -0.007
1JZ4 C14 2 2.392 -2.470 -0.139
1JZ4 C13 3 2.246 -2.441 -0.181

2JZ4 C4 (followed by coordinates)
2JZ4 C14 (followed by coordinates)
2JZ4 C13 (followed by coordinates)

I am looking forward to getting your reply.

Re: [gmx-users] on md of protein-ligand

2016-04-20 Thread Brett
Hi Mark,



I still find it was difficult to understand. After the pdb2gmx, the coordinates 
in the gro file will be significantly (including the scale of the value) 
different from the input for pdb2gmx. Suppose my protein-ligand contains 6 
identical ligands, the ATB like servers can only produce one set of topology 
and gro files for all 6 identical ligands (with 6 different initial pdbs).


Then how do we get a single gro file containing all the coordinates information 
for the 6 subunits (relatively easy for the protein part by pdb2gmx) and all 6 
ligands (as for we can only hav 1 set of coordinates information containing 
ligand.gro for all 6 ligands)?

[gmx-users] on md of protein-ligand

2016-04-20 Thread Brett
Dear All and Justin,


Suppose my protein complex contain 4 ADP, each ADP was in one subunit. Suppose 
we use ATB to create the ligand ADP files for md. It seems the situation is, 
regardless of which of the 4 ADP pdb files was submitted, ATB will only give 
one identical set of topology files for ADP, and it cannot distinguish from 
which ADP ligand ATB  got the topology files for all 4 ADPs.


Here it lead to the question, how does GROMCS knows the position of each ADP in 
the protein complex during the md process?


Let us think the question from another view. We have a protein-ligand complex 
pdb, and the complex contains 1 subunit and 1 ligand. We got the protein 
topology file by pdb2gmx, and we will find in the gro file the value of the 
coordinates have been changed from the original pdb coordinates for the 
protein-ligand. The same is true for the ligand, and if we use prodrug to get 
the topology file for the ligand, we will find the coordinate values of the 
ligand have been changed in comparison with that in the ligand pdb from the 
protein-ligand pdb.


Thus, I would like to ask, after we edited the gro files by combining the 
protein part coordinates and ligand part coordinates, how GROMCS keeps that 
once the compiled gro file was transformed back to pdb, the ligands were in the 
correct ligand binding pocket in the protein?

I am looking forward to getting the reply from you.

Re: [gmx-users] on md of protein-ligand

2016-04-19 Thread Brett
Dear All,


It seems the external servers preparing the ligand files (antechamber for 
example) not only optimize the coordinates of the ligands, but it changes the 
ligand from one place to another place, thus the ligand coordinates by the 
external server cannot occupy the ligand binding pocket in the original 
protein-ligand complex.


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you on how to have the external 
server processed ligand find the ligand binding pocket in the protein-ligand 
complex for md.

[gmx-users] on md of protein-ligand

2016-04-19 Thread Brett
Dear All,


I am learning the md of protein-ligand based on the Justin on-line tutorial. My 
first question is, for the topology files we need to produce the protein part 
and ligand part separately, and the input for pdb2gmx did not contain the 
ligand part. After I got the ligand files, I find the coordinate of the ligands 
was different from the ligand pdb in the protein-complex pdb (although the rmsd 
between the ligand topology and the ligand in the complex was 0). Then during 
md process how does GROMCS know where is the position of the ligand in the 
complex?


Correspondingly, my second question is, suppose I have a protein dimer with 2 
identical subunits, 1 subunit was a cAMP binding, and 1 was apo. Then during 
the md process how does GROMACS know which subunit binding with the cAMP and 
which subunit was apo?


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

Re: [gmx-users] further on: very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-15 Thread Brett
Dear Mark,



My protein was a 6-identical subunit protein complex, initially each subunit 
contains a ligand. I want to see the conformational change from ligand bond to 
ligand free state, during this process there were reports that significant 
conformation change would occur


First from the initial PDB with the ligands, I delete the ligands and get the 
apo pdb, after pdb2gmx etc, I process the energy minimization, nvt 
equilibration and npt equilibration, then I start the production md. During the 
initial 6 ns production md, there were some conformation change observed, but I 
do not know whether it diffuse.


In addition, I do not understand what is "the envelope of the diffusion", and 
does diffusion leads the box from cubic to sphere?

[gmx-users] further on: very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-15 Thread Brett
Dear All,

By xmgrace I have checked the xmgrace, I find the spike was between -8.245e+06 
and -8.225e+06, is the spike massive or not?


In addition, by
gmx trjconv -f ma_0_1.trr -s md_0_1.tpr -o 6000pswithwater.pdb --pbc nojump 
-dump 6000,


I got the 6 ns with water pdb and I have checked the pdb (with water box), I 
find the resi 366-367 were not disconnected!


However, by gmx editconf, the original water box was in cubic, after "gmx 
trjconv -f ma_0_1.trr -s md_0_1.tpr -o 6000pswithwater.pdb --pbc nojump -dump 
6000", the cubic water box was replaced by a rough sphere water box with the 
protein roughly in the center. Will you please explain why the cubic water box 
was replaced by the round sphere water box? Anything wrong I have made?


Further, by visual check if in a production MD I did not see residue 
disconnection caused by "Periodic_Boundary_Conditions", can we guarantee no 
minor disconnection occurred during the md (or significant bond length variance 
unobservable by the naked eye with pymol) if we did not process the trjconv 
correction step?


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

2016-04-14 Thread Brett
Dear All,



Thanks the reply.


But I think I need to discuss with you further on whether I need to discontinue 
my production MD. As I mentioned, resi 366-367 separated from the major body of 
the protein. By pymol I find resi 366-367 were at one edge of the box and were 
almost outside of the water box, and its neighbouring residues resi 365 and 
resi 368 were at the opposite edge of the box and were also almost outside of 
the water box.


It seems that way, although at the initial step by editconf I have put the 
protein in the center of the cubic box (1.5 nm), during the first 6 ns the 
protein has moved significantly in the box, and at some moment resi 366-367 
have moved out of the box, leading to the disconnection of resi 366-367 from 
the major body of the protein and finally leading to resi 366-367 at the 
opposite of  its neighbouring residues resi 365 and resi 368 in the cubix box.


Am I right?

[gmx-users] very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-14 Thread Brett
Dear All,

As I have introduced in my previous e-mail,

"After energy minimization and equilibrations, I am now running a 50 ns 
production MD, for a protein of 6 identical subunits, with each subunit about 
300 residues (from resi 120 to resi 420), and there were no breaks in any 
chain. Every day it runs about 1 ns, and every day I use the command trjconv to 
get a new PDB based on the md_0_1.trr file, for the comparison between the new 
pdb and the initial pdb.


Today I got the PDB at 6 ns. However when I checked it my pymol, I find there 
is something very strange. Although the rmsd between the 6 ns md PDB and 0ns md 
PDB was about only 3.7, for chain B, residue 366-367 moved 180 angstrom away 
from this residues neighbouring residues, and correspondingly make chain B has 
a break at residue 366-367!"

A moment ago by trjconv I regot the6 ns pdb with water, I find the residue 
366-367 are almost (or exactly) at the edge of the water box (but by naked eye 
it seems the residue 366-367 are not outside of the water box). In this does 
the moving away of the residue 366-367 are still caused by "
Periodic_Boundary_Conditions", and can I continue the production md to 
completion with the residue 366-367 disconnected from the major part of the 
protein complex and then I correct it by trjconv?

I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

Dear All,

If the issue in my production MD was caused by "Periodic_Boundary_Conditions", 
I can continue my production MD until it completed, and it will not affect my 
final results suppose I have it corrected by trjconv, right?

[gmx-users] very strange phenomenon for my production MD by gromacs

2016-04-13 Thread Brett
Dear All,


After energy minimization and equilibrations, I am now running a 50 ns 
production MD, for a protein of 6 identical subunits, with each subunit about 
300 residues (from resi 120 to resi 420), and there were no breaks in any 
chain. Every day it runs about 1 ns, and every day I use the command trjconv to 
get a new PDB based on the md_0_1.trr file, for the comparison between the new 
pdb and the initial pdb.


Today I got the PDB at 6 ns. However when I checked it my pymol, I find there 
is something very strange. Although the rmsd between the 6 ns md PDB and 0ns md 
PDB was about only 3.7, for chain B, residue 366-367 moved 180 angstrom away 
from this residues neighbouring residues, and correspondingly make chain B has 
a break at residue 366-367!


Will you please let me know what is wrong with my MD, and why 2 residues (resi 
366-367) moved 180 angstrom away? Does this phenomenon often occur?


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

For a MD of a protein-ligand complex, I intend to use AMBER99SB-ILDN protein

[gmx-users] questions related to MD of protein-ligand complex

2016-04-06 Thread Brett
Dear All,


There is the on-line Justin Protein-ligand MD tutorial, but my protein complex 
contains 4 identical subunits and each subunit contains a ligand. In this 
situation should I prepare 4 ligand files using the ligand file preparation 
tools external to GROMCS? And what extra attention I should take for preparing 
the complex.gro and topol.top for this 4-ligand complex?


For the "topol.top", the on-line tutorial has a sentence " Just insert a line 
that says #include "drg.itp" into topol.top after the position restraint file 
is included". Here what does it mean for the "position restraint file", and 
where has been included in the on-line tutorial (example files)?

[gmx-users] questions related to md.mdp

2016-04-06 Thread Brett
Dear All,

Based on the on-line lysozyme tutorial,

the first several lines I used for my md.mdp was as following,

title= OPLS Lysozyme MD 
; Run parameters
integrator= md; leap-frog integrator
nsteps= 500; 2 * 500 = 1 ps, 10 ns
dt= 0.002; 2 fs
; Output control
nstxout= 1000; save coordinates every 2 ps
nstvout= 1000; save velocities every 2 ps
nstenergy= 1000; save energies every 2 ps
nstlog= 1000; update log file every 2 ps

My first question is, besides 2 fs for the dt, can I change dt to 20 fs or 200 
fs, or 2000 fs for very long production MD? And what will be the difference for 
the results of production MD between dt=2 fs and dt=2000 fs?

My second question is, the intervals for saving coordinates, velocities, 
energies, log file should be same, or can the intervals different?

My third question is,  the intervals for saving coordinates, velocities, 
energies, log file should be an integer times the dt, or have no relationship 
with dt?

[gmx-users] several basic questions on GROMACS

2016-04-05 Thread Brett
Dear All,

Based on the on-line Lysozyme tutorial, I started a MD from energy minimization 
to NVT equlibation to NPT equlibration, and I am now in the production MD step.

When I checked my Directory containing all the MD files for the whole MD 
process, I find there is a "mdout.mdp". Is my understanding correct on that, in 
the energy minimization step, it will create a "mdout.mdp" file, and in any of 
the following of NVT equlibation, NPT equlibration and production MD step, a 
"mdout.mdp" file will be created and automatically replaced the "mdout.mdp" 
file created in the previous step?

As I mentioned, currently I was in the production M step, and if I 
intentionally delete the "mdout.mdp" file from the Directory, how does it 
affect my production MD?

The next question, during my production MD step, I checked my Directory, and 
here let me take the NVT related files as example, I found there were a nvt.cpt 
and a nvt_prev.cpt file. Suppose my NVT equilibration step lasts for 100 ps, is 
the nvt.cpt the file created by "gmx grompp -f npt.mdp -c nvt.gro -t nvt.cpt -p 
topol.top -o npt.tpr", and the nvt_prev.cpt the cpt file created at the end of 
"gmx mdrun -deffnm npt -v &", and this nvt_prev.cpt file will be used at the 
beginning of the next step NPT equilibration?

Dear All,

For both trjcat and trjconv, there was an option "-dt", which the on-line

Will you please explain to me what is the meaning of "Only write frame when t

Re: [gmx-users] on non-equilibrium MD

2016-04-03 Thread Brett
Dear,



I am still confisued,


Suppose for a protein, its ligand binding form has a higher energy that its apo 
form. After we got the apo format PDB from the protein-ligand PDB, we energy 
minimized the apo protein and equlibrated it and then run production MD on it.


I deduce if the final stabilized apo protein has significant different 
conformation from the ligand binding status, during the production MD the 
internal energy of the apo protein will change significantly. If the production 
MD cannot cross energy barrier, then how production MD can make us see 
significant protein conformational change during the MD?

[gmx-users] on crashed MD

2016-04-02 Thread Brett
Dear All,

Before when I got a MD crashed, I do the following to continue it,

"gmx  tpbconv -s md_0_1.tpr -extend 0 -o md_0_1extending0ps.tpr
gmx mdrun -deffnm md_0_1extending0ps -cpi md_0_1_prev.cpt -reprod -v &"

Recently I have a crashed MD, and when I do "gmx  tpbconv -s md_0_1.tpr -extend 
0 -o md_0_1extending0ps.tpr", it says tpbconv has been replaced by convert-tpr.

In 
"http://jenkins.gromacs.org/job/Documentation_Nightly_master/javadoc/onlinehelp/gmx-convert-tpr.html#gmx-convert-tpr;,
 there was introduction on  convert-tpr, which says,

"gmxconvert-tpr can edit run input files in four ways.

1. by modifying the number of steps in a run input file with options -extend, 
-until or -nsteps (nsteps=-1 means unlimited number of steps)

2. (OBSOLETE) by creating a run input file for a continuation run when your 
simulation has crashed due to e.g. a full disk, or by making a continuation run 
input file. This option is obsolete, since mdrun now writes and reads 
checkpoint files. Note that a frame with coordinates and velocities is needed. 
When pressure and/or Nose-Hoover temperature coupling is used an energy file 
can be supplied to get an exact continuation of the original run.

3. by creating a .tpx file for a subset of your original tpx file, which is 
useful when you want to remove the solvent from your .tpx file, or when you 
want to make e.g. a pure Calpha .tpx file. Note that you may need to use 
-nsteps-1 (or similar) to get this to work. WARNING: this .tpx file is not 
fully functional.

4. by setting the charges of a specified group to zero. This is useful when 
doing free energy estimates using the LIE (Linear Interaction Energy) method".




My first question is, when I meet a crashed MD, can I continue it by


"gmx  convert-tpr -s md_0_1.tpr -extend 0 -o md_0_1extending0ps.tpr
gmx mdrun -deffnm md_0_1extending0ps -cpi md_0_1_prev.cpt -reprod -v &"?




My second question is, as for the introduction on convert-tpr says to continue 
a crashed MD by "gmx  convert-tpr" was obsolete, will you please tell me the 
command by mdrun to directly continue a crashed MD?

Re: [gmx-users] on non-equilibrium MD

2016-04-01 Thread Brett
Thanks Justin.

Based on your answer, here I would like to ask,

Suppose there is a PDB for a protein-ligand, and it is already known ligand 
would lead extremely significant conformation change of that specific protein. 
Based on the protein-ligand PDB, I would like to investigate the conformation 
of the protein without ligand by MD.

First from the PDB for  the protein-ligand, I delete the ligand part and get 
the PDB for the protein part. Then with the protein part PDB and based on your 
lyzoyme tutorial protocol, through energy minimization, NVT and NPT 
equilibration, I start the production MD.

Here my question is, as for the energy of the protein in the ligand binding and 
ligand free state is significantly different, and based on my practice based on 
your lysozyme tutorial, the energy minimization, NVT and NPT equilibration 
steps could almost lead to no conformation change of the protein from the 
initial PDB conformation in the protein-ligand state, then in the production MD 
process, there should be a significant conformation change, which I regard that 
the conformation change can be checked by the energy change by command "gmx 
energy -f md_01.edr -o potential.xvg". If the protein conformation in the 
ligand binding status has much higher energy than in the ligand free state, 
then will you please tell me why the conformation change can only be observed 
in the production md process, but not in the initial energy minimization step 
before the production MD?

Dear All,

For non-equilibrium MD, does it mean there would be no need for the energy 
minimization step, NVT equilibrium step and NPT equilibrium step before the 
production MD? In which situation we use non-equilibrium MD, and in which 
situation we use the production MD with energy minimization step, NVT 
equilibrium step and NPT equilibrium step?

Re: [gmx-users] pdb2gmx & terminal residues

2016-03-31 Thread Brett
Dear Justin and All,

For terminal residue, regardless I select 0, 1, 2, the error messages always 
exist.

I have opened the pdb by swiss deep view and resaved it, the same error message 
still exist.


However if I choose force field 6: AMBER99SB-ILDN protein, the error message 
disappear.

Will you please give suggestions on getting rid of the warning messages for the 
terminal residues by pdb2gmx?

Brett

[gmx-users] pdb2gmx & terminal residues

2016-03-30 Thread Brett
Dear All,

When I do "mx pdb2gmx -f practice.pdb -o target_processed.gro  -ignh" with 
force field, it gave me the warning as following,

"WARNING: WARNING: Residue 1 named ASP of a molecule in the input file was 
mapped
to an entry in the topology database, but the atom H used in
an interaction of type angle in that entry is not found in the
input file. Perhaps your atom and/or residue naming needs to be
fixed.



WARNING: WARNING: Residue 42 named ILE of a molecule in the input file was 
mapped
to an entry in the topology database, but the atom O used in
an interaction of type angle in that entry is not found in the
input file. Perhaps your atom and/or residue naming needs to be
fixed.
"
I find Residue 1 (Asp) was exactly my N-terminal residue and Residue 42 was 
exactly my C-terminal residue.

Here I copied the coordinates part for the N- and C-terminal residues here:

I myself cannot find anything wrong for my 2 terminal residues.

that the pdb2gmx will not give the warning messages?

I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

"nsteps" in the minim.mdp file?

After steps for  pdb2gmx, editconf, solvate, "-f ions.mdp -c target_solv.gro -p 
topol.top -o ions.tpr", genion, "grompp -f minim.mdp -c target_solv_ions.gro -p 
topol.top -o em.tpr", I started step "mdrun -v -deffnm em &", but in the "mdrun 
-v -deffnm em &" step it gave

"Step=   15, Dmax= 1.3e-01 nm, Epot= -4.22195e+07 Fmax= 7.18492e+04, atom= 7837
Step=   16, Dmax= 1.5e-01 nm, Epot= -4.23771e+07 Fmax= 1.46229e+05, atom= 5656
Step=   17, Dmax= 1.8e-01 nm, Epot= -4.24412e+07 Fmax= 7.58589e+05, atom= 5656

Back Off! I just backed up step18b_n8.pdb to ./#step18b_n8.pdb.1#

Back Off! I just backed up step18c_n8.pdb to ./#step18c_n8.pdb.1#

Fatal error:

My minim.mdp was as following,

Will you please let me know why the fatal error in step 18 occurred, and how to 
avid it?

Based on "Step=   16, Dmax= 1.5e-01 nm, Epot= -4.23771e+07 Fmax= 1.46229e+05, 
atom= 5656", does it mean that step only works on atop "5656"? If so, if my 
system contains 500,000 atoms, how much should be the appropriate value for 
"nsteps" in the minim.mdp file?

[gmx-users] 54a7 force field & pdb2gmx & topology database

2016-03-30 Thread Brett
Dear All,

When I work with pdb2gmx for force field 54a7, I meet the following

"WARNING: Residue 54 named ILE of a molecule in the input file was mapped
to an entry in the topology database, but the atom O used in
an interaction of type angle in that entry is not found in the
input file. Perhaps your atom and/or residue naming needs to be
fixed".

Why you please let me know how to localize the topology database and how to 
localize ILE in the topology database , so that I can compare the atom O with 
that in my input pdb file, for fix of my pdb file?

[gmx-users] on the gromacs force field for keep helix

2016-03-29 Thread Brett
Dear All,

Before I read some on-line material , perhaps the on-line tutorial of Justin. 
It said there was a gromacs force field better than the other gromacs force 
field for keeping the intact of the helix during MD. WIll you please tell me 
which is the force field used for keeping the intact of the helix?

[gmx-users] gromacs-5.1 installation error

2015-09-16 Thread Brett
Dear All,

When I tried to install the gromacs-5.1 by

"tar xfz gromacs-5.1.tar.gz
cd gromacs-5.1
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DREGRESSIONTEST_DOWNLOAD=ON

make check
sudo make install
source /usr/local/gromacs/bin/GMXRC".

at the "cmake .. -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DREGRESSIONTEST_DOWNLOAD=ON" step I 
met the following errors thus the gromacs-5.1 cannot be installed. Will you 
please explain to me on how to have the issue settled so that I can have the 
gromacs-5.1 installed?

I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.

Best regards.

[gmx-users] on CHARMM-GUI produced lipid bilayer for gromacs use

2015-09-16 Thread Brett
Dear All,


After I got the membrane protein PDB with the membrane part packed in lipid 
bilayer by the lipid bilayer builder of CHARMM-GUI, will you please let me know 
how to get the inputs for the gromacs next step MD process? For example, if I 
wand to go directly to the nvt equilibration step with the CHARMM-GUI produced 
PDB, the command in the lysozyme tutorial is "gmx grompp -f nvt.mdp -c em.gro 
-p topol.top -o nvt.tpr". Then will you please let me know how to get the input 
*.gro and *.top file in order to get the *.tpr file? Or for the  CHARMM-GUI 
produced PDB, I delete all the H2O, and then start from the pdb2gmx step with 
the PDB file containing only the membrane protein and the lipid bilayer? But in 
this way it seems the sides of the lipid bilayer will also be packed in H2O.


I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.


Best regards.


Brett

[gmx-users] membrane protein simulation

2015-09-13 Thread Brett

Dear All,
 
Suppose a membrane protein contains 10 trans-membrane helix, and as the cell 
membrane is round, the upper and lower part of the 10 trans- membrane are not 
horizontal as they are part of the rounded cell, will you please introduce to 
me how to make the lipid bilayer in curve to parallel the upper and lower part 
of the 10 tran- membrane? I only know we can pack the membrane protein into the 
lipid bilayer in the way the lipid bilayer would be perpendicular to the 
membrane protein.
 
Yesterday I have posted a similar question but my post was not show in the post 
list.
 
I am looking forward to getting your reply.


Best regards.

Dear All,


There are some biological processes involving ATP hydrolysis driven protein 
conformational change. By MD, can we simulate the protein global conformational 
change driven by ATP hydrolysis? Or by MD can we investigate how the energy 
stored in ATP converts to protein conformational change?

[gmx-users] on VMD analysis of the gromacs production MD

2015-07-11 Thread Brett
Dear All,


After energy minimization, 100 ps NVT md and 100 ps NPT md (based on the 
on-line lysozyme tutorial), I have processed a 30 ns production MD (also based 
on the on-line lysozyme tutorial). Then I load the NPT.gro and the 
30ns_production_md.xtc to the VMD, and by VMD I find in the whole 30 ns md, the 
whole protein molecule has an about 50 degree rotation (the 50 degree occurs 
gradually in the 15 ns md, not a sudden 50 degree rotation). Is this 50 degree 
rotation normal or abnormal?


If by VMD I want to observe the local conformation changes in the whole 30 ns 
md, rather than the  global 50 degree rotation, will you please tell me which 
trajectory file I need to load to VMD, and by which command I can get that 
trajectory file?


Best regards.

[gmx-users] on trjconv command

2015-07-09 Thread Brett
Dear All,


Will you please show me the command based on the following cited content from 
the website on how to convert a xtc file with 1 frame per 2 ps to a xtc file 
with 1 frame per 10 ps? I hope the command contains “-dt” and “-timestep”, and 
what the values should be for  “-dt” and “-timestep”.


Best regards


Brett


With -dt it is possible to reduce the number of frames in the output. This 
option relies on the accuracy of the times in your input trajectory, so if 
these are inaccurate use the -timestep option to modify the time (this can be 
done simultaneously).

[gmx-users] on trjcat command

2015-07-05 Thread Brett
Dear All,


The command trjcat can be used for connection of trr files and xtc files in the 
similar manner,  and suppose the first MD is from 0 to 1 ns, the second MD  is 
from 1 ns to 4 ns, the third MD is from 4 ns to 4.5 ns, by trjcat we can get 
the whole trr file from 0 nx to 4.5 ns, and if the input is the xtc files, we 
can then get the whole xtc file from 0 nx to 4.5 ns, am I right?

[gmx-users] on the gmx solvate command

2015-06-04 Thread Brett
Dear All,


Before I neutralize my system with the genion command, I solvate it  with the 
gmx solvate command, it writes, System total charge: 0.00. But the pdb2gmx 
step clearly indicate the systemp has -62 negative charges.


Will you please explain to me why the gmx solvate step can show the system as 
without charge?

[gmx-users] on g_covar to produce average structure

2015-05-25 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
The on-line tutorial says, Warning – Average structures (by g_covar) tend to 
be crude. Minimization is recommended. Here the minmization should be the 
energy minization step before the NVT and NPT equilibration steps, for our 
preparation of the files for the production md, right?

Re: [gmx-users] the relationship between mdp file and the force field

2015-04-27 Thread Brett
Dear Justin,

 
I have read some of the force fields original paper, but my purpose is to use 
MD to settle some biological issues, thus I am afraid I do not have such deep 
understanding what explained in the original force field papers.
 
For Force field 6, here I mean AMBER99SB_ILDNprotein. For the MDP files, I 
think  AMBER99SB_ILDNprotein force field, AMBER99SB protein, AMBER 99 protein, 
AMBER 96 protein can have the same mdp files, GROMOS96 43a1, 43a2, 45a3, 53a3, 
53a5,53a6,54a7 can have the same MDP files, am I right? If we modified based on 
the on-line lysozyme tutorial, what items should we modify based on the 
original lysozyme mdp diles?
 
In addition, for biological research, can we definetely say GROMOS96 54a7 is 
better than the other versions of GROMOS96? In comparision with the GROMOS 
series, what is the advantages and disavantages of OPLS-AA/L all-atom force 
field?
 
I am looking forward to getting a reply from you.
 
Best regards.
 
Brett

Force field 6 is not very precise, because the numbering in the pdb2gmx list 
varies between GROMACS versions.  What force field (exactly) are you using? 
Have you read the primary literature for the force field?  Settings are given 
in 
the parametrization/validation papers and that's what you should use.

Hi Brett,

Too high for what?

You do EM because you just built (part of) your system, and in doing so
introduced clashes and non-ideal geometries. These lead to high potential
energy, so you relax them with EM. What you see is how much the system
relaxed. Noone usually cares how much potential energy was lost during EM.
The thing that matters is whether the resulting system is relaxed enough to
run the simulation.

Cheers,

Re: [gmx-users] a question related to gmx energy minimization

2015-04-26 Thread Brett
Dear Justin,
 
I mean why the RMSD is such huge. Does it mean in the energy mminimization step 
the protein has moved from point A to point B which is long long distance away 
from point A but, although the protein has been continously embedded in water? 
If the RMSD is above several thousands, it would mean the protein conformation 
after energy minimization would be absolutely different from the input pdb for 
the pdb2gmx.
 
I am looking forward to getting a clarification.

No, there's nothing wrong; the analysis in this case is meaningless.

Energy minimization inherently makes large (orders of magnitude in many cases) 
changes to the potential as the structure is relaxed.  An average energy over 
the course of this process has absolutely no physical meaning.

[gmx-users] pdb2gmx and the terminal residue

2015-04-25 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
For the pdb2gmx, if I will not assign charges to the N-terminal residue and 
C-terminal residue, I need to use pdb2gmx -ter, or I need to use pdb2gmx 
-[no]ter?
 
In addition, whether there will be charges at the  N-terminal residue and 
C-terminal residue has relation with the force field used,  am I right?

[gmx-users] pdb2gmx and the Glu residue

2015-04-25 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
In the top file produced by H++ server for AMBER, if there is no charge for the 
Glu, the residue name will be modified to GLH. In our gromacs, we never treat 
Glu as without charge, thus we do not have GLH residue, am I right?

[gmx-users] on regreressiontests

2015-04-23 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
For my installed gromacs, I just run the regression tests. It indicates PASSED 
but check mdp file differences, All 12 rotation tests PASSED, All o extra tests 
PASSED, All 42 pdb2gmx tests PASSED.
 
Will you please advise whether I can use my installed gromacs without concern? 
What does it mean for PASSED but check mdp file differences?
 
I am looking forward to getting your reply.

[gmx-users] on the regression tests

2015-04-22 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
When I install gromacs-5.0.3, after the make check step, it indicates 
Regression tests have not been run. If you want to run them from the build 
systems,get the correct version of the regression tests ackage and set 
REGRESSION_PATH in CMake to point to it, or set REGRESSIONTEST_DOWNLOAF=ON.
 
Without doing the regression tests, I complete the sudo make install and 
source /usr/local/gromacs/bin/GMXPC steps and completing the gromacs 
installation.
 
Will you please let me know is any side-effect on my gromacs installation 
without the regression tests?

[gmx-users] definition of eigenvector in gromacs

2015-03-08 Thread Brett
Dear All,
 
Recently I have read a gromacs related article which contain a sentence 
Trajectories pojected on the first two eigenvectors. Will you please tell me 
the meaning of eigenvector and Trajectories pojected on the first two 
eigenvectors? Will you please also explain it to me using common-used words 
simple as desk, meal, earth, etc?

Dear Justin,
 
What do you mean for Multi-chain and heterogeneous systems work out of the 
box?
 
I am looking forward to getting your reply.

Multi-chain and heterogeneous systems work out of the box.  As with anything, 
the force field has to support everything and the nomenclature has to match 
the 
force field's expectations, but pdb2gmx will take care of everything.
