BioSimSpace.Protocol.Production¶

class BioSimSpace.Protocol.Production(timestep=2.0000 fs, runtime=1.0000 ns, temperature=300.0000 K, pressure=1.0000 atm, thermostat_time_constant=1.0000 ps, report_interval=200, restart_interval=1000, restart=False, restraint=None, force_constant=10 kcal mol-1 Å-2)[source]¶

A class for storing production protocols.

__init__(timestep=2.0000 fs, runtime=1.0000 ns, temperature=300.0000 K, pressure=1.0000 atm, thermostat_time_constant=1.0000 ps, report_interval=200, restart_interval=1000, restart=False, restraint=None, force_constant=10 kcal mol-1 Å-2)[source]¶

Constructor.

Parameters:

timestep (Time) – The integration timestep.
runtime (Time) – The running time.
temperature (Temperature) – The temperature.
pressure (Pressure) – The pressure. Pass pressure=None to use the NVT ensemble.
thermostat_time_constant (Time) – Time constant for thermostat coupling.
report_interval (int) – The frequency at which statistics are recorded. (In integration steps.)
restart_interval (int) – The frequency at which restart configurations and trajectory
restart (bool) – Whether this is a continuation of a previous simulation.
restraint (str, [int]) –
The type of restraint to perform. This should be one of the following options:

”backbone”
Protein backbone atoms. The matching is done by a name template, so is unreliable on conversion between molecular file formats.

”heavy”
All non-hydrogen atoms that aren’t part of water molecules or free ions.

”all”
All atoms that aren’t part of water molecules or free ions.

Alternatively, the user can pass a list of atom indices for more fine-grained control. If None, then no restraints are used.
force_constant (GeneralUnit, float) – The force constant for the restraint potential. If a ‘float’ is passed, then default units of ‘kcal_per_mol / angstrom**2’ will be used.
