[gmx-users] Drude polarizable simulations

Hello Justin,			Many thanks for your answer. Another question is that whether I need adding some Drude particles in my PDB file of DNA or Protein in the simulation process, if any, how to modify the PDB file?  I have been using the gmx v4.6.5 to do something. I don't know if this version can run Drude polarizable simulations. I am going to do protein interaction with organic solution (e.g. ethanol or methanol, etc) in Drude2013 force filed using gromacs software. Would you please give me some warnings? I think it will give me more clear direction and bring me convenience in simulation process. Thanks a lot.
		Best wishes!

Dear Kumar,
Why do you need DPD?

Hi,
The multiplicity/periodicity is the same but always positive in GROMACS. 
Kd in GROMACS is the AMBER value multiplied by 4.184 then divided by 
IDIVF (the entry after names in AMBER file). The phase is the same.
For more info on why see ambermd.org/formats.html#parm.dat
Cheers
Tom

Chapter 2 of the reference manual describes the units. Chapter 4 describes
the functional forms, and e.g. tables in chapter 5 fill in the gaps. That
has always been enough for me when converting stuff to and from AMBER
descriptions.

Dear gmx user,
			 How to carry out Drude polarizable simulations (Drude-2013 force field ) in GMX?  whether it need to modify some parameters in certain force field, if possible, which files need to change? and how to get a itp file of SWM4-NDP? 			Thanks in advance.

Example input files are in the SI of our 2015 JCC paper on the 
implementation. All other force field files, etc are available from the 
MacKerell lab website:
http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/charmm_drude_ff.shtml
Do not attempt to run simulations with domain decomposition; it is 
currently broken. OpenMP parallelization works. We are nearing a fix (at 
long last).

Dear all,
I have to find vibrational spectrum of a protein-ligand complex in water using MD. Can anyone please suggest me what thermostats would be suited for NVT equilibration, NPT equilibration and MD production. I have read that for NVT, berendsen is suited while for NPT and MD part, nose-hoover  is used.
Also, what constraints would be suited for finding vibrational spectrum. I plan to use all-H as constraints.
Thank you,
Bhagyesh
