[gmx-users] co-solvent simulation

Please disregard my previous email. I made a minor mistake when I built the .top file.

Thanks,

Yao

Actually even I follow the ""http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Mixed_Solvents"and try the built-in ureaas co-solvent, 

it has the same problem (solvate urea as protein can work, but does not work if you consider it as co-solvent).
I do not know if anyone has met the same problem before.

Thanks,

Yao

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I have not figured out what the problem. BUt I am thinking if I have two proteins in my system, 

like simulating the protein-protein interaction, what I should call the second protein for [moleculetype] in my .top, still "protein"?

Thanks,

Yao

You should not need to touch this file to model glycerol. There are
    no atom or interaction types that are materially different from
    those on peptide side chains.


and aminoacids.rtp.

You need to work out what is different in the two cases. The diff
    tool can be useful here. There is no fundamental difference in the
    .top construction for the two cases you are considering - only in
    construction of the initial coordinates.

The ffbonded.itp file is #included regardless of what you name your
    moleculetypes. You may not be #including the correct one - but then
    again I think you should only have the standard one in the first
    place.
