Dear Martini users!

I have faced with very strange issue. I am dealing with simulation of 20 GPCRs embedded within the big membrane.
During parametrization of the gpcr monomer I have defined posres on the backbone via -p backbone flag.

Now in my equilibration.mdp I have

define = -DPOSRES, -DRUBBER_BANDS

and in a itp of a protein

#ifdef POSRES
#ifndef POSRES_FC
#define POSRES_FC 1000.00
#endif
[ position_restraints ]
1 1 POSRES_FC POSRES_FC POSRES_FC
3 1 POSRES_FC POSRES_FC POSRES_FC
5 1 POSRES_FC POSRES_FC POSRES_FC
7 1 POSRES_FC POSRES_FC POSRES_FC

Now I am runing a simulation and see in VMD that all GPCRs "dance" within the membrane even the posres flag is provided :-) Why the restraints does not work? How to prevent any movements of the proteins?

Thanks !

Hi,

you can still expect some movement, and IIRC only the backbone beads will be restrained. How much "dancing" do you see? Do they retain their relative positions?

Hi,


I fixed it via modification of the
define = -DPOSRES, -DRUBBER_BANDS # it was wrong!
to
define = -DPOSRES

:-)

Good catch! It might also work without the comma:
define = -DPOSRES -DRUBBER_BANDS

:-) could you also help me in the next topic regarding simulation of the flow along the CG membrane ??
