Individual updates

  • CC

    • Was travelling Thurs+Friday

    • Started setting up protein force field benchmarks. Looking to run small peptides, disordered proteins, and folded proteins. Trying to figure out how to handle protonation and ion concs. Once that’s set up I should be able to extend/reuse these scripts

      • JW – It looks like there are a few options for expanding our GPU compute if the benchmarks show we need ti - Argonne?, PRP, Google/AWS/Oracle donations?,

      • PB – Lilac?

      • DD – Lilac has a lot of GPUs

      • JW – Lilac would be a great choice.

      • CC – This should be largely automated. So if we need to use pre-emptible compute we can checkpoint frequently.

      • MT – Out of curiousity, how are these sims getting set up?

        • CC – Will simulate using OpenMM (on development branch, they support setting up boxes using rhombic dodecahedron). Will use PropKa to assign protonation (heuristic, but the same thing as DH used for FE benchmarks - Generally considered to be good but not as good as eg Schrodinger tools). Simulations workflow is minimization, equilibration, and then multi-replicate simulation.

        • MT – Thanks!

        • CC - for more details, see meeting notes here: 2022-04-07 Protein FF meeting note

    • Met with Brendon Duggan, MG, DM on Friday. He’s measured a wide variety of small molecule NMR observations. We’re trying to figure out whether we can use that to fit/test the FF. Still determining feasibility, will plan to meet a few more times to work out details.

  • MT

    • Backporting/forwardporting PRs between biopolymer-topology-refactor and master branches in Toolkit. So all PRs into master got forwardported, expected it to take days, instead just took hours. Pleasantly surprised.

    • Interchange regression tests

      • Did a lot of digging to learn that 200-300 failing single-molecule charge assignment comparisons were failing because of trans-cooh behavior in OpenEye wrapper. Ported this fix into the other branch and then only 30-40 molecules are failing (max partial charge on any atom deviation between 1e-6 and 1e-2). Really hard to isolate these last few. JW looked at this and the SMILES used an aromaticity model other than MDL, which may have led to it being interpreted oddly. Possible it’s due to duplicates in the dataset, hashing+caching, runtime non-determinism, or aromaticity issue above.

        • CC – It sounds like this is all OE - Do you see similar discrepancies in AmberTools?

        • MT – We’re just testing OE (since it’s fast enough to go through this industry benchmark set). OE is also more straightforward - It’s a single library to assign charges, rather than relying on the combined behaviors of RDKit and AmberTools. So this route prioritizes finding bugs in Interchange and the Toolkit rather than the external libraries.

      • Condensed phase tests - Did these tests a while ago. Didn’t see any differences. This was a little bit surprising since the single-molecule tests showed differences. But I looked again and there were no COOHs in the condensed phase work.

      • Value propagation tests - Looking good

      • WBO tests - Looking good

      • Vsites - Depends on SB refactor getting merged

    • JMitchell has been working on interchange docs for much of the last two weeks - Made a big set of changes to user guide. Last week he finished overhauling examples, and they’re in a much better state now. I’m really happy witht he state of Interchange docs now.

  • DD

    • Protein-ligand benchmarks

    • QCArchive

      • still working on getting openff-qcsubmit ( ) into shape for QCFractal next

      • will drive to get this out this week; aiming to get a submission out via qca-dataset-submission-next-test

      • waiting for response from Bert de Groot on MPI cluster account; will try again this week

  • PB

  • JW –

    • Worked half days Mon+Tues

    • Good amount of project-ish planning - Working on how we plan + communicate with OMSF and ad/gov boards.

    • Prioritizing vsite rework review and topology refactor
