Dear Justin,

Thanks for your immediate reply.

Is it possible to do clustering based on side-chain RMSF in gromacs?


Not that I'm aware of.

What about dihedral angle order parameters in gromacs?. Does it provide any
information about what I want to know?


You can probably get some useful information, but I don't know how to calculate such quantities in Gromacs, and any clustering you would do would have to be external to Gromacs.

Thanking you once again

regards

Dear amber users,

I am working with protein-ligand interaction. The protein shows high
degree
of side-chain conformational changes and minimal backbone conformational
changes during ligand binding. In order to capture these side chain
flexibility, as a initial step,  I would like to do clustering based on
the
side-chain flexibility (i.e. categorise different areas in protein based
on
the degree of side chain flexibility). Is there a way to do such a
calculation in Gromacs?. Can any one suggested me a way to proceed with
this sort of analysis?


g_cluster does RMSD-based clustering. That's not "flexibility" per se, but
might be informative. If you do fitting based on side chains (which might
be difficult, since side chains flop around a lot), that's about as close
to achieving what you're after as I can think of using standard Gromacs
programs.
