[gmx-users] what restraint can I use to prevent membrane diffusion along the Z-axis?

2012-02-22 Thread Jose Borreguero
Dear GROMACS users, While simulating a DLPC membrane, I noticed that it tends to diffuse along the normal (Z-axis) component. Is there a 'standard' restrain that is used to prevent such diffusion? The first option I thought was to restrain the center of mass of the whole membrane along the Z-axis

[gmx-users] how to obtain NOEs from MD trajectory ?

Dear Gromacs users, Is there any algorithm/procedure to calculate NOEs from an MD trajectory? I'd greatly appreciate any references where the algorithm is described. Best regards, Jose M. Borreguero -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-

[gmx-users] Newbie: Which implicit solvent force field to choose?

2011-12-07 Thread Jose Borreguero
Dear Gromacs users, I'm new to gromacs. I want to simulate a short peptide in an implicit solvent with low dielectric constant (simulate the interior of a membrane). Can you please tell me which implicit solvent force field is more suitable, and how do I pass the value of the dielectric constant ?

Dear Gromacs users, Im new to gromacs and I'm following a tutorial ( http://nmr.chem.uu.nl/~tsjerk/course/molmod/). Unfortunately, the tutorials doesn't say anything about how to update the topology file after using 'genion' to replace a few water molecules with ions. I manually edited the topolog

[gmx-users] isopropanol parameters?

2010-03-05 Thread Jose Borreguero
Dear GROMACS users, I am simulating aqueous isopropanol. Unfortunately I observe segregation of isopropanol from SPC water at isopropanol fraction volume of 0.25. Since isopropanol is miscible in water, my parameters stress too much the hydrophobic character of this solute. Only a few interstitial
