How to keep chain ID / IDs in GROMACS?

In GROMACS , while converting pdb file (monomer or multimer) into .gro file, it do not preserve the chain ID information. Due to the lack of chain ID information, pdb file retrieved from .gro file at any stage of the simulation has missing chain IDs and pdb file can not be visualized properly in PYMOL / RASMOL . There are two ways to convert .gro file into .pdb Lets say your protein name is xyz.pdb 1] gmx editconf -f xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb 2] gmx trjconv -f  xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb -s xyz.tpr Only ' trjconv ' will retrieve the chain ID information for all the chains. and not ' editconf '. If you have monomer protein and wish to assign any chain ID then following command will be of your interest: gmx editconf -f xyz.gro -o xyz.pdb -label [ chain-ID ]

PyRx - Virtual Screening Tool

PyRx - Virtual Screening Tool PyRx is a Virtual Screening software for Computational Drug Discovery that can be used to screen libraries of compounds against potential drug targets. PyRx enables Medicinal Chemists to run Virtual Screening from any platform and helps users in every step of this process - from data preparation to job submission and analysis of the results. While it is true that there is no magic button in the drug discovery process, PyRx includes docking wizard with easy-to-use user interface which makes it a valuable tool for Computer-Aided Drug Design. PyRx also includes chemical spreadsheet-like functionality and powerful visualization engine that are essential for Rational Drug Design. Please visits PyRx home page to learn more about PyRx and watch videos on how to use it.

MD convert (xtc to dcd)

CATDCD program can be used to convert one file format to another file format. For example: How to convert trajectory output of GROMACS .xtc format into NAMD .dcd format ==== /path/to/catdcd -o /path/to/save/file/abc.dcd -xtc /input/path/to/save/file/abc.xtc ==== How to install CATDCD? Follow the link-   https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/MDTools/catdcd/ Download the catdcd-X.Xx.tar.gz Extract all files from the tar. Locate the catdcd file. It should be in directory :  catdcd-4.0b/LINUXAMD64/bin/catdcd4.0/ Source the catdcd in your bashrc: export PATH="/path/to/catdcd/directory/:$PATH"
