Hello list, first of all, my question in short: Does anyone know a source for PDB-files of mixed membranes (such as DMPC/DMPS or so)?
And here more info: Within my diploma thesis I want to simulate a protein (ca. 20 residues) interacting with a lipid bilayer (not a transmembrane protein). Besides the probably normal challanges in starting up with GROMACS, I need your help with a special problem: As a source for one-component bilayer pdb's (containing DOPC, SDPC, DMPC, DPPC and POPC) I found http://moose.bio.ucalgary.ca/index.php?page=Structures_and_Topologies http://persweb.wabash.edu/facstaff/fellers/ http://www.lrz-muenchen.de/~heller/membrane/membrane.html http://www.apmaths.uwo.ca/~mkarttu//downloads.shtml and maybe one could do fancy (protein insertion-) things using the membrane builder of http://www.charmm-gui.org/ but to get closer to reality (and to be able to compare simulation results with experiments) one might prefer a mix of different lipids (e.g. DMPC, DMPS, DMPG, at least anything like **PC, **PS, **PG or anything like that). Here is my problem, because I can't find any sites that offer such pdb files. Is there someone out there who knows more or even has experience in simulations like that? A similar example would help me with this, too. Thanks a lot in advance, I hope I can share my knowledge some other time, too Volker _______________________________________________ gmx-users mailing list gmx-users@gromacs.org http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting!
