Hi!
I have two phosphorylated serines which form part of peptide that I want to perform simulated annealing. But the catch is the SEP group is read as a Non-Protein and so it is present in two T-coupling groups, the Non-Potein and the protein group I want to heat. I need to remove this group (SEP-phosphorylated serine) from the Non-Protein group. The Non-Protein group contains about 20,000 atoms (water, counterions and also the SEP group). So how can I remove this group from the Non-Protein group?

Add it to aminoacids.dat, and increment the number at the top of the file.

        Hi !
        I am attempting to do a simulated annealing and running into
        problem.
        Let me give a introduction to my system. I have a segment of a
        protein that was not crystallographyically resolved, but was
        later resolved by NMR.
        So I ligated the NMR structure to the crystal structure  and in
        an attempt to find the correct orientation of the NMR segment in
        the crystal structure I planned to do a simulated annealing run
        specifically to this ligated NMR segment. Having ligated this
        NMR segment to the crystal structure I gave the pdb2gmx command,
        then created a box, filled it with water and performed a
        distance restrained energy minimization (wherein I input some
        FRET distances as distance restraints). Its all fine till this
        step. Now I create an index group that has the NMR group as the
        third group in the temperature coupling, the other two are
        Protein and Non-Protein. when I run the grompp to start a
        simulated annealing run I get a message stating that the NMR
        group's atoms are also found in the Protein group. Gromacs is
        right in detecting this problem. As I cannot have the same amino
        acids in 2 different groups which are coupled to two different
        temperatures. So how am I to attempt this simulated annealing
        because the program does not want to have the NMR group present
        in the Protein group?


    You will need to make special index groups, i.e.:

    r 1-x (for the appended segment)
    r x-y (the rest of the protein)

    These groups can be used as your tc-grps.

    -Justin

        So say I delete the NMR segment that was appended to the crystal
        structure how and which stage do I integrate the NMR group that
        I wanted to perform the simulated annealing on, into the system?
         Thanks
