Dear all,
I was wondering what the correct usage of martinize.py is for mapping a atomistic water.gro file to the P4 water martini coarse grained?
The "martinize.py -f AA-water.gro -x CG-water.gro ... " gives me only a box of the system.

How about when I have system including two type of molecules and water, like " AA-water-mol1-mol2.gro"? I know the mapping (mapping.xml) of the mol1 and mol2 in VOTCA.

Thank you.
Alex

Dear Alex,

As far as I know, `martinize.py` is only meant to be used to coarse grain proteins. It won't give you an interface to coarse grain anything else:


Since you're eluding to the idea of combining Martini water with a structure-based CG model, beware that this can lead to major inconsistencies.

Best,
Tristan

Hi Tristan,
Thanks for your comment.
I know the difference between the two structure and free energy based models.
Actually the mapping of 1-water-mol:1-bead of VOTCA CG is not useful for me here and I need to have something like the P4 Martini water 4-water-mols:1-beads.
Any way, do you know how to mapp the AA-water.gro to the CG-P4-martini.gro? 
Thanks.
Alex

VOTCA doesn't support mapping multiple molecules into one. You would have to bundle them up first to do such kind of mappings.

Hi Christoph,
I know, that is why I wanted to use martinize.py following your old advice in the mailing list.
What is the correct command of martinize.py -f AA-water.gro -x CG-P4-water.gro ... ?

Regarding the bonding, how can I do that?
Thanks.
Alex

Probably the "gmx make_ndx" can help to bundle 4 water molecules.

I don't know! That is a question for martini mailing list!

To bundle molecules in gromacs you will have to put a virtual bond between them.
