NAME

g_mindist VERSION 3.3_beta_20050823

SYNOPSIS

g_mindist -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -n index.ndx -od mindist.xvg -on numcont.xvg -o atm-pair.out -ox mindist.xtc -or mindistres.xvg -[no]h -nice int -b time -e time -dt time -tu enum -[no]w -[no]xvgr -[no]matrix -[no]max -d real -[no]pi -[no]split -ng int

DESCRIPTION

g_mindist computes the distance between one group and a number of other groups. Both the minimum distance (between any pair of atoms from the respective groups) and the number of contacts within a given distance are written to two separate output files. With -or , minimum distances to each residue in the first group are determined and plotted as a function of reisdue number.

With option -pi the minimum distance of a group to its periodic image is plotted. This is useful for checking if a protein has seen its periodic image during a simulation. Only one shift in each direction is considered, giving a total of 26 shifts. It also plots the maximum distance within the group and the lengths of the three box vectors.

Other programs that calculate distances are g_dist

and g_bond
