Dear all,
when attempting simulations with ff19SB with the updated Amber18 version
from Carlos Simmerling's GitHub, I failed to run pmemd.cuda simulations
with ACE and NHE caps on N- and C- termini of the protein. Simulations
crashed with the following error in ~50 nanoseconds: "Error: an illegal
memory access was encountered launching kernel kNLSkinTest". No further
error message is printed in the simulation *.out file and the last-saved
structure showed no abnormalities. Simulations with the same system without
the end-caps run without any problems. Runs with the end-caps with sander
on CPUs do not result in this error. Test ff14SB cuda simulations with the
end-caps with the updated Amber18 run also without problems. I have ~1100
atoms in my system.
It seems that cuda + ff19SB + caps combination produces some large numbers
somewhere. Is there something I am missing or could you advise any possible
solution to my problem?
The ff19SB improved some local backbone conformations (and associated
protein-protein interactions) wrt ff14SB in my protein-protein complex, so
I'd like to use this force field. Still, I need to use the end-caps due to
the excessive and undesired end-end interactions in the structure.
I'd be grateful for any comment.
Best wishes,
Pavlina
