Ok.
But when I run this command
g_rms -s setp_0.pdb -f setp_0.pdb -n ca_ind.ndx -o out
it ask me groups... and that i thought is for fitting///
for example -
------------------------
Select group for least squares fit
Group 0 (C-alpha_chain1) has 249 elements
Group 1 (C-alpha_chain2) has 249 elements
Group 2 (C-alpha_chain3) has 249 elements
Group 3 (C-alpha_chain4) has 249 elements
Select a group: 0
Selected 0: 'C-alpha_chain1'
So group 0 in *each* structure is used for fitting the two structures to
each other...
Select group for RMSD calculation
Group 0 (C-alpha_chain1) has 249 elements
Group 1 (C-alpha_chain2) has 249 elements
Group 2 (C-alpha_chain3) has 249 elements
Group 3 (C-alpha_chain4) has 249 elements
Select a group:1
Selected 1: 'C-alpha_chain2'
... and group 1 in *each* structure is then used for the RMSD calculation.
The above is *not* fitting group 0 to group 1, and then measuring the
RMSD of group 0 w.r.t. group 1, which sounds about what you want to do.
You need my editconf/trjconv approach for that.
It's up to you to determine whether groups 0 and 1 should intersect.
This allows you to (say) do an all-C-alpha fit, and then measure only
the part of interest. In your case, as Justin said, since the two input
structures are the same, you get zero RMSD regardless what else you do.
Notice how giving the command line, inputs and outputs has led to
getting useful feedback, rather than the last 10 emails' worth of
frustration because nobody knows what the other is talking about :-)
