Hi
6LYZ.pdb is simply a lysozyme structure and I merely solvated it running the
simulation on Gromacs.
System = 6LYZ.pdb + CL- + water molecules

Before I put the 6LYZ.pdb on Gromacs 3.3.3, there is no problem at all.
Recently, I tried the Gromacs 4.0.5, the simulation is broken at the step
Position restrained MD.

The commands are as follows.
minim.mdp and pr.mdp are as follows.
And outputs are as follows.

Any thing wrong?
Thank you
Lin


1. Energy minimization of the structure (vacuum)
pbc=no
grompp_mpi -v -f minim.mdp -c 6LYZ.gro -p 6LYZ.top -o 6LYZ-EM-vacuum.tpr
mpiexec -np 16 mdrun_mpi -pd -v -deffnm 6LYZ-EM-vacuum


2. Periodic boundary conditions
editconf_mpi -f 6LYZ-EM-vacuum.gro -o 6LYZ-PBC.gro -bt cubic -box 6.0 6.0
6.0


3. Solvent addition
genbox_mpi -cp 6LYZ-PBC.gro -cs spc216.gro -p 6LYZ.top -o 6LYZ-water.gro


4. Addition of ions: counter charge and concentration
grompp_mpi -v -f minim.mdp -c 6LYZ-water.gro -p 6LYZ.top -o 6LYZ-water.tpr
genion_mpi -s 6LYZ-water.tpr -o 6LYZ-solvated.gro -nn 8 -nname CL-


5 Energy minimization of the solvated system   => Potential Energy went to
the very negative number
pbc =xyz (minim.mdp)
grompp_mpi -v -f minim.mdp -c 6LYZ-solvated.gro -p 6LYZ.top -o
6LYZ-EM-solvated
mpiexec -np 16 mdrun_mpi -pd -v -deffnm 6LYZ-EM-solvated


6 Relaxation of solvent and hydrogen atom positions: Position restrained
MD   => Simulation Broke
grompp_mpi -v -f pr.mdp -c 6LYZ-EM-solvated.gro -p 6LYZ.top -o 6LYZ-PR.tpr
mpiexec -np 16 mdrun_mpi -deffnm 6LYZ-PR
