make_ndx(1)					 GROMACS suite, VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c				       make_ndx(1)

NAME
make_ndx - makes index files VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c SYNOPSIS
make_ndx -f conf.gro -n index.ndx -o index.ndx -[no]h -[no]version -nice int -natoms int DESCRIPTION
Index groups are necessary for almost every gromacs program. All these programs can generate default index groups. You ONLY have to use make_ndx when you need SPECIAL index groups. There is a default index group for the whole system, 9 default index groups for proteins, and a default index group is generated for every other residue name. When no index file is supplied, also make_ndx will generate the default groups. With the index editor you can select on atom, residue and chain names and numbers. When a run input file is supplied you can also select on atom type. You can use NOT, AND and OR, you can split groups into chains, residues or atoms. You can delete and rename groups. The atom numbering in the editor and the index file starts at 1. FILES

genrestr(1)					 GROMACS suite, VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c				       genrestr(1)

NAME
genrestr - generates position restraints or distance restraints for index groups VERSION 4.5.4-dev-20110404-bc5695c SYNOPSIS
genrestr -f conf.gro -n index.ndx -o posre.itp -of freeze.ndx -[no]h -[no]version -nice int -fc vector -freeze real -[no]disre -disre_dist real -disre_frac real -disre_up2 real -cutoff real -[no]constr DESCRIPTION
genrestr produces an include file for a topology containing a list of atom numbers and three force constants for the x-, y-, and z-direction. A single isotropic force constant may be given on the command line instead of three components. WARNING: position restraints only work for the one molecule at a time. Position restraints are interactions within molecules, therefore they should be included within the correct [ moleculetype ] block in the topology. Since the atom numbers in every moleculetype in the topology start at 1 and the numbers in the input file for genrestr number consecutively from 1, genrestr will only produce a useful file for the first molecule. The -of option produces an index file that can be used for freezing atoms. In this case, the input file must be a .pdb file. With the -disre option, half a matrix of distance restraints is generated instead of position restraints. With this matrix, that one typi- cally would apply to Calpha atoms in a protein, one can maintain the overall conformation of a protein without tieing it to a specific position (as with position restraints).

If the fraction of the distance that you specify here is less than the distance given in the previous option, that one is used instead. -disre_up2 real 1 Distance between upper bound for distance restraints, and the distance at which the force becomes constant (see manual) -cutoff real -1 Only generate distance restraints for atoms pairs within cutoff (nm) -[no]constrno Generate a constraint matrix rather than distance restraints. Constraints of type 2 will be generated that do generate exclusions. SEE ALSO
