Deal all,
I am using acpype to convert a set of glycolipids modeled with the GLYCAM06
force fiedl into the GROMACS format. acpype works well for this task. But I
would like to check if the conversion is correctly done by performing single
point energy (SPE) calculations with Amber and GROMACS codes and thus computes
the energy differences for the bonded and non bonded terms
For the former test I using the prmtop and inpcrd files generated with tleap
and sander with the minimal commands below
| mdin Single point
&cntrl
imin=0,
maxcyc=0,
ntmin=2,
ntb=0,
igb=0,
cut=999
/
But For GROMACS vers > 5.0 and 2018.x , I did not find the equivalent mdp
parameters that can be used for doing the same task. I I used the minimal file
below The bonded energy terms are very similar between the two codes but not the
non bonded terms
integrator = steep ; Algorithm (steep = steepest descent minimization)
emtol = 1000.0 ; Stop minimization when the maximum force < 1000.0
kJ/mol/nm
emstep = 0.01 ; Minimization step size
nsteps = 0 ; Maximum number of (minimization) steps to perform
(should be 50000)
; Parameters describing how to find the neighbors of each atom and how to
calculate the interactions
nstlist = 1 ; Frequency to update the neighbor list and long
range forces
cutoff-scheme = Group ; Buffered neighbor searching
ns_type = grid ; Method to determine neighbor list (simple, grid)
coulombtype = Cut-off ; Treatment of long range electrostatic interactions
rcoulomb = 0 ; Short-range electrostatic cut-off
rvdw = 0 ; Short-range Van der Waals cut-off
rlist = 0
pbc = no ; P
continuation = yes
I also also notice that a tpr generated with this mdp can not be used with
-rerun argument so how I can compute a SPE equivalent to Sander
Why is it incompatible with mdrun -rerun? Do you get an error?
You also shouldn't use a minimizer when doing a zero-point energy. Use
the md integrator.
