TUTORIAL OPEN3DTOOLS (Tools Developed by Dr TUTORIAL OPEN3DTOOLS (Tools developed by Dr. Paolo TOSCO and Dr. Thomas BALLE) Tutorial made by Dr. Enrico PERSPICACE Workstation: _ Windows Vista Home Premium (SP2) – 32 Bit – German language _ Processor Intel® core™2 Duo CPU T5450 at 1.66 GHz – 3 Go RAM Download and installation of Open3DTOOLS suite: Open3DALIGN, Open3DGRID and Open3DQSAR can be found here: http://open3dalign.sourceforge.net/ (Open3DALIGN) http://open3grid.sourceforge.net/ (Open3DGRID) http://open3dqsar.sourceforge.net/ (Open3DQSAR) Those pieces of software can be installed independently. I will only show you how to install Open3DQSAR but it is the same for Open3DALIGN and Open3DGRID. Please go to: http://open3dqsar.sourceforge.net/?Downloads Select your operating system by clicking on it (for me it is Windows). You will be redirected to sourceforge.net website. If you don’t know the version of your operating system (32 or 64 Bit), you can download “choose_version.exe” and launch it. Then, you can download the right version (for me it is: open3dqsar- 2.25_windows_sse3_setup.exe). Open3DQSAR uses also OpenBabel for file extension conversion. You can find a version of OpenBabel on the same website (openbabel_for_open3dtools_windows_setup.exe) Now, you can install Open3DQSAR followed by OpenBabel by clicking on it and following the instructions. Once installed please launch Open3DQSAR When you launch the first time Open3DQSAR, you can see: _ the working directory automatically set to: C:\open3dtools _ the location of OpenBabel automatically set to: C:\open3dtools\bin But some information are missing such as path for QM engine, CS3D, GRID, GNUPLOT and PyMOL. None of those pieces of software is strictly required to run Open3DQSAR, but they may help visualization of results (GNUPLOT and PyMOL) or allow carrying out specific MIF calculations (QM engine, CS3D, GRID). I will just show you how to set PyMOL and GNUPLOT. Go on your desktop, right click on Computer icon and select properties. The “system” window will open. Click-on “Advanced system parameters” The “System properties” window will open. Click-on “Variables environment” and on “New” And now I will create a new variable: The name of the variable can be found when you launch Open3DQSAR: So, you just have to enter the name of the variable as follow: Followed by the path (for me it is C:\Program Files\DeLano Scientific\PyMOL\PyMOL.exe): Then click on OK. Your PyMOL path is now set. You can also set the variable environment directly in Open3DQSAR by typing: env gnuplot=”C:\Program Files\gnuplot\bin\gnuplot.exe” (for example for GNUPLOT) Press Enter button: Using the same procedure you can add COSMOsar3D, GRID, GAMESS, GAUSSIAN. But those pieces of software are not required for 3D-QSAR calculation using Open3DQSAR tool (Please see http://Open3DQSAR.sourceforge.net/?Description for more information). Now your Open3DQSAR is set and we can run it using an example. The example is located in: C:\open3dtools\Open3DQSAR\example\MM\ Open sample_input.inp file with notepad (or, even better, Notepad++). Right click on the file, open. Choose open with already installed program. And choose Notepad (or Notepad ++, if you installed it). Please be sure that Notepad is not always used to open sample_input.inp file. Now you have just to follow the instructions as depicted into the file. First of all, import ref_e2.sdf file When you click on “Enter” button, molecules will be loaded and viewed in PyMOL. Now you can follow exactly the procedure as described in sample_input.inp file. NB: you have just to type first characters and press “TAB” button to have the commands completed. For example, if you write just “typ” and press “TAB”, “type=” will be automatically written. Depending of the power of your computer, to save some RAM you might want to create a new variable environment as O3_SAVE_RAM (Name), and set to “YES”. This has a rather small impact on speed and allows carrying out calculations on large datasets. For further information on different keywords please go to: http://Open3DQSAR.sourceforge.net/?Description:Keywords When you finished all calculations, you can visualize PLS pseudo-coefficients maps with PyMOL, MOE or MAESTRO. I will show you an example with PyMOL. Open PyMOL In command line, type: load c:\open3dtools\Open3DQSAR\example\MM\ffdsel_coefficients_fld-01_y- 01.grd, steric Set the isocontour value for positive values (this value can be modified for optimal visualization of isocontours) isosurf steric_pos, steric, 4.0e-03 Set the isocontour value for negative values (this value can be modified for optimal visualization of isocontours) isosurf steric_neg, steric, -4.0e-03 Set color in red for positive values Color red, steric_pos Set color in blue for negative values Color blue, steric_neg This explanation is from the blog of Paolo TOSCO and can be found: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=3B9C0DC0-2134- 449F-A9A6-5770F8A41A6D%40unito.it&forum_name=Open3DQSAR-discuss HAVE FUN ;-) Enrico PERSPICACE .

  • Real-Time Pymol Visualization for Rosetta and Pyrosetta
    Real-Time PyMOL Visualization for Rosetta and PyRosetta Evan H. Baugh1, Sergey Lyskov1, Brian D. Weitzner1, Jeffrey J. Gray1,2* 1 Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, The Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, United States of America, 2 Program in Molecular Biophysics, The Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland, United States of America Abstract Computational structure prediction and design of proteins and protein-protein complexes have long been inaccessible to those not directly involved in the field. A key missing component has been the ability to visualize the progress of calculations to better understand them. Rosetta is one simulation suite that would benefit from a robust real-time visualization solution. Several tools exist for the sole purpose of visualizing biomolecules; one of the most popular tools, PyMOL (Schro¨dinger), is a powerful, highly extensible, user friendly, and attractive package. Integrating Rosetta and PyMOL directly has many technical and logistical obstacles inhibiting usage. To circumvent these issues, we developed a novel solution based on transmitting biomolecular structure and energy information via UDP sockets. Rosetta and PyMOL run as separate processes, thereby avoiding many technical obstacles while visualizing information on-demand in real-time. When Rosetta detects changes in the structure of a protein, new coordinates are sent over a UDP network socket to a PyMOL instance running a UDP socket listener. PyMOL then interprets and displays the molecule. This implementation also allows remote execution of Rosetta. When combined with PyRosetta, this visualization solution provides an interactive environment for protein structure prediction and design.

As long as the molecule is correctly designed and modeled, there is no need to assemble and glue the components after printing—they are printed inherently as mechanically interlocked molecules. We present the preparation of a cyanostar- based [3]rotaxane as an example. A pair of sandwiched cyanostars S1 (CS ) derived from the crystal structure was "cleaned up" in the molecular computation software Spartan ʹ10, i.e. disordered atoms were removed. A linear molecule was created and threaded through the cavity of two cyanostars (Figure S1a). Using a space filling view of the molecule, the three components were spaced sufficiently far apart to ensure that they did not make direct contact Figure S1 .

  • GROMACS Tutorial Lysozyme in Water
    Free Energy Calculations: Methane in Water 1/20 GROMACS Tutorial Lysozyme in water Based on the tutorial created by Justin A. Lemkul, Ph.D. Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences University of Maryland, Baltimore Adapted by Atte Sillanpää, CSC - IT Center for Science Ltd. This example will guide a new user through the process of setting up a simulation system containing a protein (lysozyme) in a box of water, with ions. Each step will contain an explanation of input and output, using typical settings for general use. This tutorial assumes you are using a GROMACS version in the 2018 series. Step One: Prepare the Topology Some GROMACS Basics With the release of version 5.0 of GROMACS, all of the tools are essentially modules of a binary named "gmx" This is a departure from previous versions, wherein each of the tools was invoked as its own command. To get help information about any GROMACS module, you can invoke either of the following commands: Free Energy Calculations: Methane in Water 2/20 gmx help (module) or gmx (module) -h where (module) is replaced by the actual name of the command you're trying to issue. Information will be printed to the terminal, including available algorithms, options, required file formats, known bugs and limitations, etc. For new users of GROMACS, invoking the help information for common commands is a great way to learn about what each command can do. Now, on to the fun stuff! Lysozyme Tutorial We must download the protein structure file with which we will be working. For this tutorial, we will utilize hen egg white lysozyme (PDB code 1AKI).

  • Molecular Simulation Methods with Gromacs
    Molecular Simulation Methods with Gromacs Hands-on tutorial Introduction to Molecular Dynamics: Simulation of Lysozyme in Water Background The purpose of this tutorial is not to master all parts of Gromacs simulation and analysis tools in detail, but rather to give an overview and “feeling” for the typical steps used in practical simulations. Since the time available for this exercise is rather limited we can only perform a very short sample simulation, but you will also have access to a slightly longer pre-calculated trajectory for analysis. In principle, the most basic system we could simulate would be water or even a gas like Argon, but to show some of the capabilities of the analysis tools we will work with a protein: Lysozyme. Lysozyme is a fascinating enzyme that has ability to kill bacteria (kind of the body’s own antibiotic), and is present e.g. in tears, saliva, and egg white. It was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1922, and one of the first protein X-ray structures to be determined (David Phillips, 1965). The two side-chains Glu35 and Asp52 are crucial for the enzyme functionality. It is fairly small by protein standards (although large by simulation standards :-) with 164 residues and a molecular weight of 14.4 kdalton - including hydrogens it consists of 2890 atoms (see illustration on front page), although these are not present in the PDB structure since they only scatter X-rays weakly (few electrons). In the tutorial, we are first going to set up your Gromacs environments, have a look at the structure, prepare the input files necessary for simulation, solvate the structure in water, minimize & equilibrate it, and finally perform a short production simulation.

    Why should biochemistry students be introduced to molecular dynamics simulations—and how can we introduce them? Donald E. Elmore Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Program; Wellesley College; Wellesley, MA 02481 Abstract Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations play an increasingly important role in many aspects of biochemical research but are often not part of the biochemistry curricula at the undergraduate level. This article discusses the pedagogical value of exposing students to MD simulations and provides information to help instructors consider what software and hardware resources are necessary to successfully introduce these simulations into their courses. In addition, a brief review of the MD based activities in this issue and other sources are provided. Keywords molecular dynamics simulations, molecular modeling, biochemistry education, undergraduate education, computational chemistry Published in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2016, 44:118-123. Several years ago, I developed a course on the modeling of biochemical systems at Wellesley College, which was described in more detail in a previous issue of this journal [1]. As I set out to design that course, I decided to place a particular emphasis on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In full candor, this decision was likely related to my experience integrating these simulations into my own research, but I also believe it was due to some inherent advantages of exposing students to this particular computational approach. Notably, even as this initial biochemical molecular modeling course evolved into a more general (i.e. not solely biochemical) course in computational chemistry, a significant emphasis on MD has remained, emphasizing the central role I and my other colleague who teaches the current course felt it played in students’ education.

  • Molecular Modeling with Pymol
    Molecular Modeling with PyMOL PyMOL software is distributed under a license that permits use by Professor Nowick and his students for research and teaching purposes. Students of Professor Nowick may contact him for a link to download PyMOL. PyMOL can perform molecular mechanics calculations to generate realistic molecular models of molecules with common types of atoms and functional groups. Molecular mechanics uses a force field to calculate the steric energy of the molecule and then adjusts the conformation of the molecule to minimize the steric energy. A force field is set of parameters for the bond lengths, angles, torsional parameters, electrostatic properties, van der Waals interactions, etc. PyMOL uses the Merck Molecular Force Field (MMFF), which accurately accommodates a variety of atom types and functional groups. The conformation generated by molecular mechanics is a local minimum. A local minimum is a conformation at the bottom of an energy well (i.e., a conformer). It is not necessarily the lowest energy conformer (i.e., the global minimum). If you start near gauche butane, you will generate gauche butane as a local minimum; if you start near anti butane, you will generate anti butane as a local minimum that is also the global minimum. If you start with a boatlike conformation of cyclohexane, you will end up with a twist-boat conformer; if you start with a chairlike conformation of cyclohexane, you will end up with a chair conformer. The lowest-energy conformer (global minimum) many be identified by various strategies. With simple molecules and small ring sizes, this is often best done by manually adjusting the structure and re-minimizing the structure.
