Grcarma: A fully automated task-oriented interface for the analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the availability of grcarma, a program encoding for a fully automated set of tasks aiming to simplify the analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories of biological macromolecules. It is a cross-platform, Perl/Tk-based front-end to the program carma and is designed to facilitate the needs of the novice as well as those of the expert user, while at the same time maintaining a user-friendly and intuitive design. Particular emphasis was given to the automation of several tedious tasks, such as extraction of clusters of structures based on dihedral and Cartesian principal component analysis, secondary structure analysis, calculation and display of root-meansquare deviation (RMSD) matrices, calculation of entropy, calculation and analysis of variance–covariance matrices, calculation of the fraction of native contacts, etc. The program is free-open source software available immediately for download.

Clustering of molecular dynamics trajectories via peak-picking in multidimensional PCA-derived distributions
We describe a robust, fast, and memory-efficient procedure that can cluster millions of structures derived from molecular dynamics simulations. The essence of the method is based on a peakpicking algorithm applied to threeand five-dimensional distributions of the principal components derived from the trajectory and automatically supports both Cartesian and dihedral PCA-based clustering. The den...
متن کاملComparative Investigation of R213G Mutation in DNA-Binding Domain of P53 Protein via Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Introduction: P53 is a tumor suppressor protein with numerous missense mutations identified in its gene. These mutations are observed in a vast number of cancers. R213G is one of them which has a role in metastatic lung cancers. In this research, R213G was studied in comparison with the wild type via molecular dynamics simulation. Method: For the three-dimensional structure of the wild-type P53...

متن کاملnMoldyn 3: Using task farming for a parallel spectroscopy-oriented analysis of molecular dynamics simulations
We present a new version of the program package nMoldyn, which has been originally developed for a neutron-scattering oriented analysis of molecular dynamics simulations of macromolecular systems (Kneller et al., Comput. Phys. Commun. 1995, 91, 191) and was later rewritten to include in-depth time series analyses and a graphical user interface (Rog et al., J. Comput. Chem. 2003, 24, 657). The m...
