protein structure and protein modelling.

The workshop topics include:
- Protein structure classification
- Protein structure comparison
- Protein structure prediction
- Structural genomics
- Molecular simulation of proteins
- Protein modeling

Papers describing original research in any of the above listed topics are
invited. To submit a paper please email an abstract (not more than one
page, plain text or PDF) before February 1, 2002 to Iosif Vaisman
(ivaisman@gmu.edu). Acceptance notification will be sent by February 7,

Dear CCLers:
     I have a question: how to do the
"cross-correlated" analysis when a set of experimental
values are regressed again the calculated descriptors
to generate a model with regression coefficients?
     Could you introduce some reference articles on
"cross-correlated" to me?
     Thanks a lot for your any advice.

I often respond directly to the poster because they are the ones
interested; all of CCL does not need to see every reply. On topics that
might be of more general interest, I ask the poster to summarize to the
CCL. (Read: I am interested in the answer too.) The rules you specified
would reverse if the poster decides to post a summary and therefore be
difficult to apply. Furthermore, someone responding should expect to take
ownership and responsibility of their statements. Legally, an email is no
different than a mailed letter.

A simpler rule would be:
	Ownership of a statement is reported in summaries unless
	the owner explicitly requests to remain anonymous.

Hi Folks,
	I'm about to choose a front end program for Gaussian.  I'm working on Suns
with Solaris.  I know that I can use Spartan, GaussView, and other programs
as front ends.  What I'm interested in hearing is how well those of you who
use these are satisfied by their power and performance. I.e., what do you
use, are you happy with it, would you recommend it, and why.  I'll
summarize the responses if and only if I'm requested to, and if I do, I'll
give credit to those who communicate with me unless they request that I don't.

Hi, CCLer

I am interesting in find out what is the largest system studied
using DFT method until now.  In another words, assuming one has
enomous of CPU power to himself (eg. 512 cpu, 512GB memory, no
limit cpu time), what is the largest system has been optimized?
Either using commercial software, such as Gaussian or ADF, or
freeware, such as MWchem and GAMESS.  Any comments will be
appreciated!

Have a nice day!

Dear CClers,

I would like to learn more about the problem of nearly linearly
dependent basis set and very large MO coefficients that arise thanks
to this problem. I have read in the Gaussian manual that these large
coefficients may lead to subtantial numerical errors and that in case
any MO is larger than 1000, the calculation is aborted. Does any of
you have an idea how big these numerical errors might be if my largest
MO is of the order 100? When do I really need to start worry about
numerical accuracy of the calculation, at which value of the largest
MO coefficient? And finally, how does Gaussian program deal with the
problem of very large coefficients, is it trying to correct the
problem in any way (for example by excluding certain basis functions
> from further calculation) or it just continues calculation
irrespectively of what the error might be on the end?

I also tried to learn some more about this problem from the
literature, but I was not very successful. The only paper touching
this problem I found was 'A. Wallis, D.L.S. McElwain, H.O. Pritchard,
"Variation method and the algebraic eigenvalue problem.",
Int.J.Quantum Chem. 3(5), 711-722 (1969).' Does anybody know where can
I find some more information about this?

Thank you very much for your help!

The issue might be, what is the largest system where a geometry
optimization makes sense.

QM/MM calculations on biochemical systems are possible with ADF, and 
have been applied
already to systems of 2000-13000 atoms, where the AMBER95 force field 
is used for the MM system.

Subject: Announcement: Beilstein Workshop Bozen 2002 - Molecular Informatics
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Dear list members,

I am posting the following announcement on behalf of Martin Hicks,
Beilstein-Institut, Frankfurt/Main, Germany

---------- International Workshop - Molecular Informatics ----------

Apologies for any cross-postings

We would like to inform you about our forthcoming workshop:

Molecular Informatics: Confronting Complexity
May 13th-16th, 2002, Bozen, Italy.

This workshop will address the new challenges that now face scientists
in
the post-genome era - in particular, the integration of two, until
recently,
disparate sciences, i.e. cheminformatics and bioinformatics. It is now
essential to bridge the gap between chemists, dealing with the
intricacies
of drug discovery, and biologists, working with complex cell
physiological
systems, in order to make any real and significant advances in the areas
of
molecular structure-function relationships and drug-target specificity.

Speakers have been asked to bear in mind the interdisciplinary nature of
the
workshop, and where applicable, to address some of the fundamental
issues in
molecular informatics that are seldom discussed and still require to be
effectively solved.

The following themes will be covered: knowledge discovery and data
mining,
rational drug design, prediction of small molecule bioavailability
(ADMETox)
properties, protein structure and function determination, new methods of
drug-target modeling, cellular metabolism, and the use of
high-throughput
methods (biochips) for acquiring gene expression and protein binding
information.

The workshop will take place in the historic Hotel Schloss Korb. The
setting
and the limited number of participants (ca. 50-60), provide a very
convivial
atmosphere for the ready exchange of thoughts and ideas.

We have an excellent line-up of speakers including:
Karl-Heinz Baringhaus, Aventis
Hans-Joachim Böhm, Hoffmann-LaRoche
Timothy Clark, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg
Athel Cornish-Bowden, CNRS-BIP
Luc De Raedt, University of Freiburg
Chris Dobson, University of Cambridge
Richard Goldstein, University of Michigan
Jörg Hoheisel, German Cancer Research Center
Kevin Holme, Lion Bioscience
Harren Jhoti, Astex Technology
Peter Johnson, University of Leeds
William Jorgensen, Yale University
Carsten Kettner, Beilstein-Institut
Christopher Lipinski, Pfizer Global Research and Development
Gerald Maggiora, Pharmacia
Friedhelm Pfeiffer, MPI of Biochemistry
Graham Richards, University of Oxford
Brian Shoichet, Northwestern University
Jeffrey Skolnick, Donald Danforth Plant Science Center
Shoshana Wodak, Université Libre de Bruxelles

Please visit our web-site www.beilstein-institut.de for more information
about the workshop, the scientific program and the registration form.
We hope very much that you would be interested in attending. Places at
the
workshop are limited and will be allocated on a first-come basis.

Further information will be sent in circulars well before the workshop.
If
you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Dear NW Chem users and CCLers:

Does anyone know how to do the "relativistic"
ab initio MD calculations using the NWChem program?
Can I produce the relativistic pseudopotential using
pspw?
Any kind of help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Dear List Memebers,

Is there a compact, unambigous and unique representation of 3D structure
of a molecule apart from listing all the coordinates and atom types etc in
rows? Unique in that sense that there is only one possible representation
for a particular conformation of a molecule (AFAIK Z matrix is not
neccessarily is like this, there can be different Z matrices for the same
molecule). I am thinking about something like SMILES but with 3D
information in it.

Thanks:
Szilva

What do you meany by largest? Is it the molecule, theoretical method,
basis sets,......? Largest systems depends clearly on these factors.
If you look curiously, you will find even hydrogen molecule is largest:)
Any comments?

Hi all,

I'm trying to run some molecular dynamics simualtions on a protein/drug
interaction. Does anyone know of any free packages available to do
this? I've been having some problems with Dl_poly/Dlprotein.

Thanks,

Gemma

Gaussian deletes eigenvectors of the overlap matrix belonging to small 
eigenvalues (threshold value 10E-5). You may want to read David Feller's
messages to CCL on this subject: see CCL archive of Jan 21, 2000. 

In my experience, you have to really careful if you compare energies
obtained with different programs, as these may have different threshold
values for deleting the eigenvectors. Feller reports an energy difference
of more than 4 millihartree for Ar computed with G98 and other programs
that do not delete almost linearly dependent functions.

I encountered problems with almost linearly dependent functions
with basis sets containing large sets of bondfunctions: see
T. van Mourik, R.J. Vos, J.H. van Lenthe and F.B. van Duijneveldt, 
Int. J. Quant. Chem. 63, 805 (1997). It is a bit of a special case,
but it may be of interest if you want to learn more about this subject.

Hope this of any use to you,

Tanja

Dear CCLers,

It looks to me that all the solvent-accessible surface methods for computing solvation (hydration) energies so far, including the SA part in PB/SA and GB/SA, are calibrated through only a handful of organic compounds with measured solvation energies. So my question is: has anybody derived or applied or tested SAS methods (including PB/SA or GB/SA) on a *large* collection of organic compounds with known solvation energies? I hope I have not missed any important work in this area.

Any idea? I will put back the summary!

Have a good day,

"A Linux cluster on the desktop--Rocket Calc just announced their 8-
processor "personal" cluster in a mid-tower-sized box. Starting at $4500,
you get 8 Celeron 800MHz processors, each with 256MB RAM and a 100Mbps
ethernet connection. The box also has an integrated 100Mbps switch. Plus
it's sexy." Perhaps less sexy, but for a lot less money, you can also run
a cluster of Linux (virtual) machines on your desktop on
middle-of-the-road hardware. See this followup on Grant Gross's recent
piece on Virtual Machines over at Newsforge.
