Dear lipid11 developers,
I am trying to simulate a POPE bilayer in NAMD using the lipid11
parameters. For this purpose I have done some test simulations of a
hydrated POPE bilayer in a hexagonal prism box in NAMD and have measured
the Area per Lipid and Electron Density using MEMPLUGIN of VMD (upon
wrapping the coordinates
into an orthorhombic box and modifying the box vectors accordingly). The
values I got for Area per Lipid are in agreement with Skjevik et al., 2012
but the Electron Density profile deviates
(it is shifted ~ -1.3 ~1.3 e/A^3). Therefore I would like to use the same
modified version of ptraj you use to calculate these membrane attributes. I
have download if from:
http://www.stfc.ac.uk/CSE/randd/cbg/software/43741.aspx
but there are I couldn't find any instructions. Could someone please
instruct me how to use it to calculate the Electron Density and the SCD
Order Parameters described in the lipid11 paper?
thanks in advance,
Thomas
