Dear GROMACS users,
I am trying to minimize a protein structure obtained by homology
modelling.
I used the following .mdp file:
cpp = /usr/bin/cpp
define = -DPOSRES -DFLEX_SPC
constraints = none
integrator = cg
nsteps = 250
emtol = 100
emstep = 0.00001
nstcomm = 1
ns_type = grid
rlist = 0.8
rcoulomb = 1.4
rvdw = 0.8
Tcoupl = no
Pcoupl = no
gen_vel = no
I have two questions:
1) If I use "define = -DPOSRES" and I prepared a posre.itp file, can I
run a restrained (cg and steep) EM procedure or this is right just for
MD?
2) I read this interesting mail by Bert de Groot, posted on December on
gmx-users list:
"Only for special purposes (like for example a Normal Modes
type of calculation) you would need to minimize further, but then you
a) should not use a cut-off (because you get fluctuations in the energies
because of that and b) should probably move to double precision."
I installed a copy of GROMACS in double precision, but how can I run EM
disabling cut-offs?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Ivano Eberini
