[gmx-users] Problem with tpr files

Justin,

thanks. I've not known that posres were defined in the tpr file as well.

By the way could you make your suggestion in my another topic which
I've posted some days ago about problem with the g_anaeig  ( below I
coppy that issue).

There is some bug  with g_anaeig the souce of which I could not fully
understand.   I have problems when I perform PCA of X-ray data set.
Below you can my workflow.


g_covar -f b2ar_xray_coors.pdb  -s ref.pdb  -o PCA_eigenval.xvg -v
PCA_eigenvec.trr -av PCA_average.pdb -last 8
g_anaeig -v PCA_eigenvec.trr -s ref.pdb  -f b2ar_xray_coors.pdb -rmsf
eigrmsfPCA.xvg -filt


here b2ar_xray_coors.pdb  is the trajectory made from 10 X-ray
structures of my protein (only main chain atoms are included)
ref_pdb is the first frame of that trajectory


As the result I've obtained reasonable eigenvalues and aigenvectors
from g_covar BUT when I check filter trajectory ( produced by
g_anaeig) fitted it to the ref.pdb or to the averaged structure in
both cases I've obtained very distorted geometry of the  protein in
thefiltered trajectory. I have no such problems in case of PCA of MD
trajectory ( when  -f trajectory.trr is from the md snapshots not from
x-ray structures)


How it could be fixed ?
