Dear colleagues,

I'm interested in a Mopac file conversion to Spartan.
Is there any program to do it?

Hello CCLers,
I'm trying to calculate the free energy of activation for a process where
there is no minimum on the potential energy surface (PES). The (ethene
polymerisation termination) reaction begins with
a beta elimination from an alkyl group to the metal center. This forms a
fairly unstable metal hydride and a hapto2-alkene. The PES for scanning
the alkene away from the metal increases monotonically approaching the
separated products value. The free energy of separated products is readily
calculated, and is naturally much lower relative to PE. However, as the
alkene recedes from the metal it gradually gains the translational and
rotational degrees of freedom and its free energy drops, but there is a
maximum at some point.

The question is that if I calculate the free energy with the harmonic
approximation at some (ambigious) constrained geometry (distance from the
metal) is it of any approximate value for the free energy of activation?

Is there some other method for calculating the free energy of activation
in this kind of PES?

Thanks for the bandwidth, and I will summarise,

Atte

Hi,

Last week I asked a question about constraining torsions when docking a
flixible ligand to protein using AutoDock 3.0. I haven't got any replies
yet. (Unfortunately). 

Now I have another question about a unit symbol hd. I don't know what unit
it is. I came across with it when I was trying to define an energy barrier
in AutoDock using command 'barrier 10 000'  and the output file told me
that the energybarrier was set to 10000hd. What is this energy unit hd? I
was looking for an explanation in the internet and I found out that it
means hogshead, which is a volume unit. I don't think that's the case
here. 

In addition to this issue, any kind of information about constraining
torsion using AutoDock would probably  help me in my research project (for
pro graduation work).

Thank you.

The completely non-portable solution I use is to call system from the
C library ;-O ( `man system` :-)
You can do this by providing a f77_system_ (or so) by yourself, or use
cfortran.h, ... .

Dear CCLers,

Has anyone, working with DOCK4.0, encountered the problem that it is
sometimes necessary to scale down the van der Waals contribution to the
intermolecular energy, to get reasonable results? Is this mainly a problem
of short distances between non-polar hydrogens and other atoms, and is
there a way I can trace it?

My other problem is that I remember reading about this scaling factor  in
a paper, which unfortunately I lost, and I have no information anymore on
the authors, journal or title! If anyone knows what I'm talking about and
has the reference I would appreciate it, if they could forward it to me.

Many thanks in advance

There is no _drivers_ in linux at all. U need the X-server !
And old X-servers from Xfreee86 (3.3.4 or 3.3.3)shipped with RedHat

If u know exactly, what network card u have, u should try to recompile

There is tcsh shell in RedHat6.1 distribution, and i think tcsh must be
