Dear gmx-users,
I have a protein with 5 different ligands. For each system I made 30ns
simulation and I calculated the lifetime of the H-bonds between protein and
ligand with the command:
 
g_hbond -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -hbm hbmap.xpm -hbn hbond.ndx -ac hbac.xvg
-life hblife.xvg
 
During all calculations, the printout of the command gave the same warning:
 

WARNING: Correlation function is probably not long enough

because the standard deviation in the tail of C(t) > 0.001

 

and as a matter of fact, the tail of C(t) (average C(t) over second half of
acf) reported below this warning was always > 0.001, generally comprised
between 0.45 and 0.74 with two exceptions: a value of 0.02+/-0.03 and a
value of 0.04+/-0.01.

Therefore, I'm asking if the forward values considered as lifetimes are
reliable or not, and in case, what can I do to avoid this warning.

 

Thank you very much and best regards

Anna
