As the consequence I've done my NMA calculations without of any constraints :)

but I'm not sure if this could be valid because I didnt found any literature of such NMA in Gromacs. Could someone provide me with the appropriate cut-offs for the NMA in gromacs?

These are particular to the force field involved, not the software. Please consult the appropriate literature, and see what others have used for similar work.


By the way before this NMA I've done 2 energy minimization calculations
first by Steepest algorithm (emtool= 1000) and then by CG ( emtool=10)
but resulting force was still not small enought (8.92766e+02). How I can futher minimize my structurere?

Smaller EM steps might do something.


Finally I've forced with the diffuculty of the analysing of my data by the g_anaeig
E,g I want to obtain fluctuations of some atoms from my eigenvectors
g_anaeig -s fornma22.tpr -v eigenvec.trr -eig eigenval2.xvg -rmsf -first -1
1 0

I've obtained a .xvg file fith the fluctuations along 1st mode but during opening that file by xgrace I've obtain some input error. Whats I've done wrong ?

We can't tell from this information.

    I want to come back to the question of the NMA in the Gromacs :)

    I've found in manual possible algorithms of this analysis-  I must
    calculate Hessian matrix via Md-run and then calculate modes with
    g_nmens program


    1- I've performed CG minimization of my initianl structure

    2- I've loadet to the gromp .tpr file of my minimized structure

    3-  I've used mdrun and obtain error
    Fatal error:
    Constraints present with Normal Mode Analysis, this combination is
    not supported

    So I suppose that the problem with my .mdp file wich consist of
    the parametres for the NMA of Lyzosyme in water :)

    integrator    = nm        ; Normal Mode Analysis

    ; Parameters describing how to find the neighbors of each atom and
    how to calculate the interactions
    nstlist        = 1        ; Frequency to update the neighbor list
    and long range forces
    ns_type        = grid        ; Method to determine neighbor list
    (simple, grid)
    rlist        = 1.0        ; Cut-off for making neighbor list
    (short range forces)
    coulombtype    = PME        ; Treatment of long range
    electrostatic interactions
    rcoulomb    = 1.0        ; Short-range electrostatic cut-off
    rvdw        = 1.0        ; Short-range Van der Waals cut-off
    pbc        = xyz         ; Periodic Boundary Conditions (yes/no)


    How I should edit this configure file for my NMA?
    If I edit the above parametries for rvdw etc in accardance to the
    
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Normal_Mode_Analysis?highlight=nm
    I've obtained error that

    ERROR 1 [file nma.mdp]:
      With coulombtype = PME, rcoulomb must be equal to rlist
      If you want optimal energy conservation or exact integration use
    PME-Switch


    ERROR 2 [file nma.mdp]:
      With vdwtype = Cut-off, rvdw must be >= rlist

    What are the most suitable coulombtype for the NMA and combination
    of the other options?
