Parametrizing Co-factors for FESetup #16

Open ecdybeck opened 4 years ago

ecdybeck commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I would like to run a simulation of a ligand binding to a protein with a co-factor. I see in an earlier post (December 14-16) it was stated that one could run with a co-factor by including it with the protein. Could you be more specific on exactly how one includes the co-factor in the set-up process?

Right now, I am getting an error from tleap, which I have copied below. I think this is because it is looking to assign protein parameters to the small molecule co-factor? Do I have to pre-parametrize the co-factor and then add it in as a user parameter file? Do I have to split the pdb file into one of the protein and one of the co-factor and then combine them later? Thanks in advance for your help. I can attach the .in file or other files I am using upon request.

Hi,

You would need to parameterize the co-factor yourself. The cofactor.frcmod and cofactor.prep files should be in the directory from which you are running FESetup and you will need to use the 'user_params = True' in the [globals] section of your .in file. The cofactor should be in the same pdb file as the protein.

You might need to replace the FESetup/lib/python2.7/site-packages/FESetup directory in the FESetup source code with the dev version to get the user_params option to work.
