Dear chemists,
CAMEO (Computer Assisted Mechanistic Evaluation Organic Reactions)
is an organic synthesis software which runs on VAX/VMS, SGI, and Mac.
Available reaction modules include
	Carbene, Basic/Nucleophilic, Acidic/Electrophilic,
	Electrophilic/Aromatic, Transition Organometallic,
	Free Radical, Heterocyclic, Oxidative/Reductive,
	Pericyclic, and Photocyclic reactions.

We are now running an on-line interactive CAMEO server
on our HTTP server. Check out the CAMEO home page at

	http://zarbi.chem.yale.edu/programs/cameo.html

or you can directly connect to the server at

	http://zarbi.chem.yale.edu/~lim/CameoClient/index.html

This client/server was written in JAVA 1.0 and thus requires JAVA
enabled world wide web browsers such as netscape 4.0 or later.
Within a web browser, you can draw starting materials and reactants,
choose a desired reaction module and reaction conditions, and 
analyze products and reaction mechanisms.

This service is provided for FREE for a limited period of time.

Dear Netters

Now I want to calculate the oxidation potental of macromolecules, such as 
polymer and protein etc with quantum chemical methods . Thanks in advances!

Sincerly yours

Subject: CCL: Free Energy Perturbation
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 1998 09:35:12 +0100



Hello,
I am trying to perform a free energy perturbation/simulation of a 
protein-inhibitor complex using the academic version of CHARMM. I have had 
some problems when trying to create a proper input file for a mutation of 
an amino acid to another in the inhibitor. In the testcases distributed 
along with CHARMM, there was an example of an input file for perturbation, 
and I have used the punit file for this exapmle. However, it ony calculates 
the first line of this file, that it lambda 0.0 to 0.05, then the program 
terminates normally. This is the same for all mutations I have done when 
the number of atoms in the two residues to be mutated are the same. When 
the number of atoms are different in the lambda 0 and 1 state, dummy atoms 
must be defined, and there does not seem to an easy way of doing this in 
CHARMM. So I was wondering if anyone has an exapmle of an input file for 
free energy perturbation for CHARMM, and if somebody could tell me of how 
to add dummy atoms.

Best regards,

After the CPU, cache is the most important. Accept nothing less than 1MB per CPU.

Digital did a demo here some months back and stated that CPU intensive jobs
show exponential dependence on cache size for their CPU's (don't know the
cutoffs).  They have/will release their latest 600MHZ alpha's with 4MB cache
modules per CPU as an option.

I would expect 1M cache/CPU for your high end Intel. I have heard of intel
motherboards taking up to 2MB cache/CPU. Bottom line is cache is very
important for CPU intensive work.
