Mime-Version: 1.0

Hi folks,

We would like to announce the release of our
educational molecular simulation freeware,
the Concord Modeling Workbench Version 1.1.
The software can be downloaded at:

http://workbench.concord.org/modeler/index.html

The Concord Modeling Workbench is a set
of educational tools that can be used to compute
and visualize the motion of ensembles of atoms
and molecules. The motion of each entity is
estimated using molecular mechanics forces.
Meso-scale objects and their interactions based
on the Gay-Berne model are supported. The
resulting ensembles can illustrate energy conservation,
gas laws, pressure, phase transitions, chemical
bonding, chemical reactions, Maxwell velocity distribution,
osmosis, electrolysis, electrophoresis, liquid crystals,
polymers, and more.

The Concord Modeling Workbench also provides an
integrated software environment that can be used to
easily create, visualize, annotate, contextualize,
cross-link and distribute molecular dynamics models.
High school and college students can use it to explore
a vast range of preexisting models, or to develop models
of their own.

If I understand your procedure correctly, you obtain the normal modes 
in terms of mass-weighted displacement coordinates. But the 'normal 
modes' printed by Gaussian are expressed in cartesian displacement 
coordinates and normalized to unit length. - You may see the Gaussian 
web-place for further information.

Dear Connie,

I elaborate a little bit:

If I understand your procedure correctly, you obtain the normal modes
Q in terms of mass-weighted displacement coordinates. Your normal mode
vectors should form an orthonormal set. But the "normal modes" printed
by Gaussian are expressed in cartesian displacement coordinates and
normalized to unit length (1 Angstrom). They are not necessarily
orthogonal.

You may try the following: 
First multiply the coefficients printed by Gaussian by the inverse 
square root of the reduced mass; the reduced mass is printed by 
Gaussian in units of u (or AMU, atomic mass unit). This produces the 
cartesian displacement vectors X associated with unit displacement 
along the corresponding normal coordinates Q. Then multiply the 
elements of X by the square roots of the pertinent atomic masses 
m(i). If my reasoning is correct, this should produce the proper 
normal modes Q in terms of mass-weighted displacement coordinates in 
units of sqr(u)*Angstrom. Hopefully, the resulting normal modes agree 
with the ones you have computed.

Dear Netters,

I have two questions:

1) How to calculate with Gaussian 98 Fermi Contact Coupling of radical 
molecules with N(15 isotope) adding Spin of N(15) nuclei equal to 1/2
and Magnetogyric ratio (rad/T s) equal to -2.712 x 10^7 (and maybe 
changing the constant 8*pi/3 by 4*pi/3 due to different N(15) nucleus 
spin=1/2 comprarison with N(14) nucleus spin=1).
Does it exist some special keyword or something like that allowing in
G98 to calculate Fermi Contact Coupling with less popular atoms isotopes?
If no, maybe somebody can give me some software for calculations of 
Fermi Contact Couplings with different atom isotopes?

2) I am asking also for software that might to calculate HFS 
interactions of radicals possessing different isotopes in the presence of 
magnetic field. I agree to include owners of these software in the list of 
authors for sharing the programes and for help in the begining of 
calculations.

Thanking your in advance.
With bst regards, Arvydas Tamulis

CML is designed to be extensible by a variety of mechanisms such as 
external ontologies and we would be delighted to hear from those who find 
it "too weak". We are currently developing a computational chemistry 
implementation (CCML) as previously mentioned on this list. The feature of 
XML languages is that XML requires semantics to be well designed and 
interoperable, *and* to have communally available software tools for 
reading, validating and writing and linking to ontologies.  CML is designed 
for collaborative working and  we shall shortly announce the mailing list.

Hi Antonio,

Unfortunately that feature is not yet implemented in Autodock, although there 
have been some papers published investigating side chain flexibility (see 
Osterberg et al., (2002) Automated Docking to Multiple Target Structures: 
Incorporation of Protein Mobility and Structural Water Heterogeneity in 
Autodock. Proteins 46:34-40) and the Autodock webpage announces that it will 
be available in the next release.

The other possibility would be to do a molecular dynamics simulation of the 
receptor to produce multiple side chain conformers and then dock the ligand to 
each conformer (I cant find the reference, but I have seen it done).

Cheers,

Robert
