Liviu,

I do not know what the reason for your technical problems are. But I 
definitely know that calculation of the frequencies will not lead you to 
the free energy in a solvent. In solvents the free energy is domonated 
by the interactions with the solvent molecules, while the changes in 
frequencies are of negligible importance.

Presently probably the most reliable method for prediction of the free 
energy of molecules in arbitrary solvents and even mixtures, at variable 
temperature, is my COSMO-RS method. We are winner of the first 
industrial fluid property prediction challenge organized by NIST in 
2002.  In Gaussian03  you have the option to choose the settings to 
produc e a COSMO file according to our standards. This file can be read 
by our COMSOtherm program and it gives you the free energy (together 
with lots of other thermodynamic infiormation).

Read more about COSMO-RS on our homepage: www.cosmologic.de.

Good luck

Andreas

I'm not aware of a database of ag chemicals along the lines of NCI  
database, but I have not been in that particular field for five or six  
years (there was _not_ one up until 1999 for sure).  Some places to  
look:

Since you are in Champaign, check with researchers at Illinois Natural  
History Survey.  Many moons ago they had very tight connections with  
extension services and the like, who might know of online resources.   
Similarly, talk to researchers in the entomology departments and  
agronomy/ crop sciences departments.  In entomology, there used to be  
an applied effort in vector control.  This was run by Robert Metcalf;  
I'm sure he is retired, but perhaps another researcher is doing this  
type of work, and they would use similar resources.

USEPA will have some of this data, but I don't know if it will be  
organized in way to be of use to you.  I would also look at NIEHS web  
site.

There are some standard reference books, somewhat like the Merck index,  
but with more extensive monographs, from which a database could be  
compiled.  Google the "Pesticide manual" and/or "Herbicide handbook"

Hope this helps,
Steve

I have a new docking code and scoring function that I'm currently
validating.  I'm mainly using the data in Wang's J. Med. Chem paper (2003,
46, 2287-2303) and the Gold test set.  I've culled most of the docking
literature for other "standard" tests.

One area where I'm weak is having good ligand libraries for testing database
enrichments.  I could construct these libraries myself, but then direct
comparisons with other docking/scoring methods cited in the literature might
be ambiguous.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who knows of any such data sources
that are available to the public.

Cheers,
Mark

You are right, however, in the recent Glide paper (J. Med. Chem. 2004, 47,
1750-1759 by  Halgren et al.) they are using the same ACD set that was
used by Bissantz et al. (J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 4759-4767) as far as I
see. My opinion ACD is really not the best source of lead/drug-like
entities. The FlexX people (J. Med. Chem. 2001, 44, 1035-1042)  used a
subset of WDI. Having WDI (means having $$$) you can make some
comparison though it is only the library creation process not the
entities you can read from the article. 

Likely the best thing you can do is to generate your own libs
in the same way as it was mentioned in the papers. OTOH, testing with
1000 or so non-native ligands is not necessarily enough: using vHTS usually
the top 1% or less of the whole library is purchased and that is the
first ten if you are using a 1K lib :/

For Gaussian, yes.

Yes, vastly.  Use PC GAMESS.  It's 5 to 10 times faster than Gaussian for
DFT calculations.

When I optimize a molecule with G03, I delete my input,output and chk 
file.(*.gjf, *.out, *.chk). However I found it was still running. But I 
can't get its output information. I have *.d2e,*.int,*.rwf,*.scr.
  Could you please tell me whether there is a way to get output information?
   Thanks!

Most likely Gaussian is trying to compute the 2nd derivatives by calculating a bunch of single point energies and approximating dE/dx with (delta-E)/(delta-x) etc.  Which is all it can do if there are no analytical gradients for your method.  It's probably not worth going to all this trouble just for a solvent effect.  

Question for other CCL-ers: 
Are solvent effects on vibrational frequencies primarily of electrostatic origin?  That is what the SCRF method assumes, isn't it?  But I would think that van der Waals forces (otherwise known as bumping into neighboring solvent molecules) would be the main factor.

Hi all,
I have a question regarding a Gaussian98 frequency job in a solvent. The
input section is given below:

#P gfinput iop(6/7=3)
#P RB3LYP/6-31G* scfcyc=400
#P guess=read geom=check scrf=(pcm,solvent=thf) freq

for some reason, the job seems to do the SP calculation in a solvent
over and over again. i let the job to run for a week, and all i got as
about 30 sp jobs. and it keeps going. it never starts calculating the
force constants or so. does anyone know what could be the problem? is the
solvent method i'm uasing the cause for this? is in any way possible to
get the free energy in solvent (that's the reason i'm doing a frequency
job).
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Liviu Mirica

Dear All,
 
I want to do docking for a protein which contain atom 'P', but autodock 
have no parameter for this atom. Who can tell me the parameters for 'P' 
for autodock and how to put these in the parameter files?

Many thanks,

Holly

   There are several levels of response to your question.

   Ben-Naim has first codified the intuitively reasonable relationship

delta-G(solvation) = delta-G(solute-solvent coupling) + delta-G(delta-Q)

where the first term on the right-hand-side is associated with interactions
between the solute and the solvent (and changes in interactions between
solvent molecules with each other) and the second term is associated with
changes in the solute partition function. The most obvious of these would
be, for example, if you were considering a change in standard-state volume
(e.g., using 1 mol per 24.5 L for your gas-phase standard state and 1 mol
per 1 L for your solution standard state). Such a change in standard-state
volume leads to a change in the translational partition function that
affects the translational entropy and hence affects the free energy of
transfer. Of course, there could also be a change in the rotational and
vibrational partition functions too! However, this is much trickier than
the trivial correction for the standard-state volume. A solute presumably
does not HAVE a rotational partition function -- those degrees of freedom
are converted into solute/solvent librational modes, the natures of which
are quite difficult to determine either experimentally OR theoretically.
Hence, essentially all continuum models proceed from the assumption that
there is NO delta-Q affect on the electronic, rotational, or vibrational
partition functions, and transform experimental data as appropriate to make
the standard-state volume a constant, and parameterize against the
remaining coupling free energy (thus, by parameterization, any error in
the assumption of zero delta-Q gets buried in the fit).

   Second, as for the coupling free energy itself, it is divided up into
electrostatic and non-electrostatic components. The electrostatic part is
nearly always determined either from solution of the Poisson or generalized
Born equations (using a self-consistent reaction field formalism if the
solute is being treated at a QM level) and the non-electrostatic part is
typically (but not always) added at the end in a more or less parametric
fashion. To the extent that "bumping into other molecules" is associated
with a cavitation term that becomes more positive with increasing
solvent-accessible surface area along a vibrational mode (as one example of
how such a term is often calculated), this affect will appear in a
continuum model, as will the electrostatics.

   However, let us say that you really ARE interested in how solvation
affects the vibrational frequencies. It is not necessarily formally correct
to recompute the harmonic-oscillator force constants with the dielectric
continuum turned on, because the time scale of the vibration may be
considerably faster than the bulk dielectric response time of the solvent.
That is, vibration is subject to a certain degree of non-equilibrium
solvation, but continuum solvent models are equilibrium in nature unless a
frequency-dependent dielectric constant is employed. A nice article
addressing the precise issue of IR in solution is Rivail, J.-L.;
Rinaldi, D.; Dillet, V., "Solvation Effects on Infrared Spectroscopy:  A
Computational Approach" Mol. Phys. 1996, 89, 1521-1529.

   A more general discussion of many of the above issues that is, I hope,
still very useful, is the review that Don Truhlar and I wrote 5 years ago
Cramer, C. J.; Truhlar, D. G., "Implicit Solvation Models:
Equilibria, Structure, Spectra, and Dynamics" Chem. Rev. 1999, 99,
2161-2200.

Given the three distances between each pair of atoms, use the familiar 
equation:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abCos(c)

or Cos(c) = (a^2 + b^2 - c^2)/(2ab)

Given Cos(c) take the inverse to get the angle c.

Hi Raju,

The PDB file from the docking log (get-dockings) command will have the ligands in the
same orientation with respect to the macromolecule.  You must load the original file
(PDB, MOL2, etc) of the macromolecule that you used to create the PDBQS in order to
view the interactions of the ligands with the receptor.

All,

Here is a summary of replies to my original message (bottom). 
Summarizing an answer, the 32-bit binaries run without a hitch on SuSe 
linux on AMD64. Also, there is a response from Gaussian stating that 
they will not test or support Fedora, and they also suggest using SuSe 
linux.

Hi Doug,

we have a cluster built with 2 GHz AMD Opteron processors.  We have run  
the 32-bit binaries of Gaussian98 on this system without any problems.   
Other program's 32-bit binaries have also run without a hitch on this  
system (as advertised by AMD).  We are running SuSE Enterprise and like  
it alot (system admin is very intuitive).

good luck,

Kirk Peterson

Reply 2 (from Gaussian support)
----------------------------

  Dr. Sievers,

   We have tested 32 bit binaries and with some versions of Linux they do run.  It is a big waste since you won't have access to one of the best features, large disk files and larger memory because of 64 bit addressing.  We are finishing the Opteron port and it will be available in our next minor revision.   It will be available as an additional platform addendum to your existing license at that time.

   We have tested with SuSE Linux.  Given that Fedora is not going to be a supported OS from RedHat we don't plan on testing or supporting it. I highly recommend you look into SuSE.  We are using the Portland Group compilers but if you stick with a binary license that is not an issue. We will have details on what we tested and support at release.
----------------------------

Reply 3
----------------------------

Dear Doug,

  I got forwarded your e-mail by a friend. We are running 32bit binaries 
on 64bit processors. We have not had any major problems with the recent 
operating system releases SuSe 64 bit linux. We have used binaries 
supplied on the Gaussian CD (i.e. precompiled binaries) and they work 
fine.  We have used old G98 binaries from a 32bit Red Hat system and 
they work fine.  The only thing that might be a problem is that we have 
not been able to get a file bigger than 2GB. This is a limitation of the 
32 bit binaries.

Does this help?

Regards
 Mark Vincent

P.S. I should state there was an initial problem with the 64b operating 
system, but it is fine now.

Hi, Dr. Juhos -

I'd like to point out that we did not use a subset of the ACD in our 
general database enrichment studies for Glide.  It is true that we did 
base our ligand database on a set of commercially available compounds that 
we assembed.  But as Table 10 in the first Glide paper (J. Med. Chem. 
2004, 47, 1739-1750) shows, we selected out a subset of average MW 400 
that matched the properties of a subset of the WDI to which we did have 
access for some 15 properties, including such things as the average 
numbers of first and higher-row atoms, rotatable bonds, total rings and 
heteroaromatic rings, charged and neutral hydrogen bond donors and 
acceptors, and amide hydrogens. The effect of this selection can best be 
judged by comparing the properties shown in the table for the "puchasable 
compounds MW 350" and "drug-like compounds MW 360" sets. 

Your comment actually refers to a very small part of our work -- namely, 
to the comparisons we made in the second paper (pp. 1750-1759) to the 
Bissantz work on thymidine kinase and the estrogen receptor.  In this 
work, as stated, we intentionally used the Bissantz/Rognan ACS database 
preparation, kindly supplied by Dr. Rognan.  We agree that this decoy 
ligand set is not the most representative, and indeed these ligands 
were not prepared in the manner we would prefer, but we used them so that 
we could directly compare Glide to FlexX, GOLD and Dock.  Thus, these 
comparisons are "evenhanded".  

Actually, I might note, these comparision were not in the originally 
submitted manuscript at all.  Rather, they were added to meet the 
insistence of a referee that comparisons to other methods be included, and 
this is what we were able to do, with Dr. Rognan's help, on short notice; 
we don't, after all, have access to the competitive docking codes 
ourselves.

In our own work, we are now preparing to switch our testing protocol to 
use decoy sets extracted from the WDI, which we now license, and we will 
be using both 1000-ligand and 10,000-ligand sets.

Dear all,

This is the first time I write to the CCL. I am starting a new molecular modeling project in a new research group. I've used comercial modeling software for many time but now I have to switch to something else, preferably a FREE or reasonably priced software. I

I am going to work with ligand-protein complexes and I need manipulation software, doking and molecular mechanics (geometry optimization and molecular dynamics) software. It can work under linux or windows sistems.

Can anybody help me.
thanks in advance for any help!
cheers,

Miguel
