[gmx-users] Normal Mode Analysis on Calphas only ??

[Marc Baaden]

Hi again,

thanks for all those helpful comments, I see a lot clearer now.
So it looks like we'll most probably code up Berk's formula.
Berk, is there a reference for it ?

On the practical side it would seem to me that one could just
add an option -n for an index file to g_nmeig and if present
consider the given index as the interesting particles applying
the transformation by Berendsen. Is this the way to go ?

I might not have read through that thoroughly enough; are you refering
to the part "Reduced basis normal modes procedure" ? It seemed to me
that this applies if you want to look at specific motions (eg torsions
only) but not in order to reduce from all-atom to eg Ca only. Maybe I got
that wrong.

Thanks again,
  Marc
