Dear all,
I have some doubts and one problem on running ABF simulations in NAMD.
*Doubts:* I'm not sure what order parameter is better for my system,
mainly because
I have tested to use the z-coord order parameter and it didn't work. I
selected some atoms in the binding site (abf1) and the ligant atoms (abf2).
The z axis of the box is parallel to the direction from the ligand in the
receptor to the solvent bulk and the distance vector between abf1 and abf2
is almost parallel to the z-direction. For my suprise, when I performed the
ABF simulation, the ligant "walk'' in the protein surface. Did I choose the
wrong order parameter or the problem is due to my vector abf1-abf2 ? Does
the vector abf1-abf2 change during ABF simulations ?
*Problem:* I have tried to use the abscissa order parameter to obtain a PMF
along a dissociation pathway through which a ligand unbinds from its
receptor (the reaction coordinate is ligant-protein to ligant-solvent). I
used a group of atoms in abf3 but received the following message error. This
is strange because the manual and this repository (
http://www.edam.uhp-nancy.fr/ABF/repository.html) specify that I can choose
a list of atoms. If I try only with one atom, it works. How can I use a list
in abf3 ( I want that a entire system to move along the vector defined by
abf1 and abf2) ?
Thanks on advance
Paulo
