Hi,

 Does anyone have a code (in fortran), which superimposes two molecules?
 I am looking for the implementation of the algorithm mentioned in the W.
Kabsch paper (Acta. Crys.A 32, 922).

thanks.

     Pradipta

Dear Dominique,

VMD cannot do this. Even though you could theoretically hook it to NAMD using 
the IMD interface and let NAMD calculate the energies. You only get total 
energies with this, though.
But I once wrote a plugin that can calculate energies for and between atom 
selections. I haven't touched it for a while and need to dig it out again. It 
is easy to use, but I should write some documentation for it . Give me 2-3 
days, then I'll post it.

I also have to check with John first as the major part of the code is derived 
> from VMD and NAMD so that the software belongs to the Uniersity of Illinois.
Therefore they must agree to the distribution.

Have a little patience,

			Jan

Hi,

I'm trying to use a local search (pseudo-sw) to minimize a docked pose of a
ligand into a receptor.  When I look at the ligand and the receptor in ADT,
the ligand is in the correct starting position.  The Grid box is large enough
to contain the search space.  I'm using a non-random start, non-random
relative dihedral offset, and initial relative dihedrals, which should all
start the local search from the specified initial coordinates.

The output ligand poses end up completely outside the docking box, and outside
the receptor as well, with an RMSD of 85 Angstroms!!!  Can anyone tell me what
is happening, as I see no reason why the ligand should end up outside the
docking box!

Thank you for your help,

-Robert

Hi all,

I have recently switched to the charmm force field from amber, and am
interested in performing some simulations in CHCl3 and CCL4. Unfortunately
I have been unable to find Cl parameters in Charmm and was wondering if
such were available or if there is a methodology for converting from amber
to charmm parameters!

Many thanks,

Gemma Kinsella
