[gmx-users] Simulate protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer

[ZHANG Cheng]

Dear Joao,
Thank you for your help and the paper link.


I was following Justin's tutorial
http://www.bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/Pages/Personal/justin/gmx-tutorials/lysozyme/03_solvate.html
On that page, it says "spc216.gro as the solvent configuration for SPC, SPC/E, or TIP3P water", and it outputs 10832 solvent molecules (i.e. water) after the solvation step. So I assume "spc216.gro" refer to all the three-point water models?


I am trying to see if my protein will be denatured in cold condition. 


Yours sincerely
Cheng

Subject:  Simulate protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer



Dear Gromacs,
I would like to simulate the protein at subzero condition in aqueous buffer, to see if it becomes more stable than the elevated temperature (e.g. 65 C). Can I ask what is the valid temperature range for water "spc216.gro" ? If I run the simulation at -40 C, does it still assume the system as liquid state instead of frozen state? Thank you.


Yours sincerely
Cheng
