MD simulations / Re: Base pair number not staying constant in simulations

« on: May 30, 2025, 01:09:55 pm »

Hi,

Apologies for the late reply. Please use  -ref option to keep the base-pairs constant. However, any parameters calculated for broken base-pairs will be of extreme values. If base-pairs are broken at the terminals, then those could be ignored during analysis by dnaMD.

Thanks,
Rajendra

MD simulations / Re: Do I need gromacs to use dnaMD for simulations?

« on: May 19, 2025, 12:31:02 am »

Do I need GROMACS version of dnaMD to analyze simulations or can I use the Python module of dnaMD without GROMACS for simulations?

No, dnaMD is a python package purely written in python. However, it requires output from do_x3dna,  which is now available for direct download and does not require GROMACS installation. You can use both do_x3dna and dnaMD without requiring GROMACS installation.

Thanks,

MD simulations / Update of do_x3dna package

« on: February 22, 2025, 11:12:53 pm »

Dear All,

I have updated the do_x3dna package for GROMACS-2025. I have built binary executable of do_x3dna that can be downloaded and used without any compilation. Most importantly, this binary package can be used with files generated by any version of GROMACS.

Thanks,
