Hello, priyanka srivastava <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Dear all,
I wish to calculate the density profile of a lipid bilayer i.e the electron density and this is how I am using the g_density command: g_density -f final.trr -s final.tpr -ei electrons.dat -o density.xvg -ed -symm where electrons.dat contains # of electrons for each and every atomtype defined in the system e.g. C2A = 6 NTM = 7 OA = 8 etc.... However it reports electron density for 50bins (setup by -sl) which ranges from 0 to 50. However I want it to vary from, -30 to +30. Maybe I'm wrong, but it reports the electron density along the z axis of the box with a grid what contains 50 bins. So to get an electron density which ranges from -30 to +30 (in Angstroms and with the bilayer center at 0, I guess) you should only shift the z values with half of your box size. Another point is, I want the density profile separately for P, N, acyl, water etc. Should I define a separate electrons.dat for this purpose? No, you should make an index file for that which contains P, N, etc. groups and run g_density -n new_index.ndx ... Kindly suggest me as to how should I proceed, eagerly waiting for your reply, Priyanka S... --------------------------------- Looking for a deal? Find great prices on flights and hotels with Yahoo!
