Dear All,

In gaussian98:
If I use the keyword CalcHFFC for an optimization, the Standard Deviation 
Cartesian coordinates for the optimized structure is NOT printed in the g98 
ouput (the structure converges very quickly after step 1 of the optimization). 
On the contrary, it is always printed if I do not use CalcHFFC or if the 
optimization convergence takes several steps. 

Is there a command to force the "Standard Deviation Cartesian coordinates" for 
the optimized structure to be printed in the output ?

Thanks, regards, Francois

Dear Pete Gannett,

I have enconterd the same problem and my results are not the same as 
experimental one.
Did you try to use only counterions and to compare the MD results vs that  
with salt? 
How you prepared your system with salt? 

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

Somebody have some good tips for set the parameter of complex ATP-Mg2+
in charmm?
Charmm27 have some parameters for ATP, but,.. how I can make the bond
between Mg and the Oxygens of ATP and the waters coordinated?, 

Thanks a lot for any help.

Hi,

I think the problem with heavy atoms in PDB files may lay in the
exact syntax and structure of PDB files. It it is not easy to
describe here, as most mailing programs cut long lines, but I give a
try.

According to PDB file rules, atom names occupy columns 13-16. If it
is an atom name, such as CA (C-alpha) in peptides, it must be in
pos. 14-15. If it is a heavy atom, it is left aligned, i.e. it occupies
pos. 13-14:

"_ CA_ " for C alpha,
"CA __ " for calcium (and other heavy atoms).

There are several programs, which do not take into account this
rule. To avoid this ambiguity in the new PDB version (>2) the
elemental symbols should be at the end of lines, cols. 77-78, but
again, some programs don't consider this.

But one more problem:
All coordinate lines should begin with the ATOM token, if the atom
is included in an "official" residue (such as GLY, ALA etc). In
these lines heavy atoms should occure In case of
"unofficial" residues or elements the lines should begin with
HETATM. Sometimes this also gets mixed, and then  it is difficult
for a program to find out that CD is a side chain carbon or cadmium.

So if heavy atoms are misinterpreted, it is advisable to check them
and correct manually, if necessary.

I have a small graphical representation of the different PDB file structures,
maybe it proves useful. See:

We are tackling the problem of file formats for several years and our
software VEGA (http://www.ddl.unimi.it) is now recognized as one of the most
interesting product to handle and manage the molecular files.
In this product we have implemented some features that could aid the use of
file formats:
- PDBFat format: this format was created in order to include extra
information keeping the compatibility with the Brookhaven National Library
specifications. For this reason, a sequence of REMARK records (one for each
atom) was added at the beginning of file. The REMARK type is the user
defined REMARK 77 (see PDB specifications) followed by the EXTRA keyword. In
these extra lines you can add several information that will be read by
specific programs, while the other softwares will skip these remark lines
without any compatibility problems.
-  The Interchange File Format (IFF) is a binary file with an chunk
structure (like IFF-ILBM, AIFF, etc). All chunks are optional (with the
exception of the first) and the structure is totally expandable. With this
powerful format you can store the maximum number of information  and VEGA
uses this format to save several ancillary information (like, atom color,
atom selected, labels, measures, rototranslations, etc) that could not be
saved with other formats.
-  ATDL language allows to define atom types. With ATDL you can describe any
atom specification and you can add new force field templates so that VEGA
can recognize them assigning the atom types and atomic charges. Using ATDL
you can both convert file formats and change the force field assignment.
Moreover we think that a software like VEGA, cannot be a black box, but it
must be a totally expandable program so that everyone can add specific
functions for particular purposes. For this reason we improve VEGA with two
systems to develop new VEGA features: a plug-in architecture and a script
language. On this ground the user can utilize the already existent VEGA
functions as a pieces of code to build new features.
Finally we are very interested to know the opinions and requirements  of the
people that must work with the plethora of formats that invaded the
molecular modelling and we think that the definition of a standard format,
usable for the standard applications, is a problem that we must try to
resolve as soon as possible.
