| A. Opening Maestro
| |
|
| |
| * From the assigned computer, a new terminal was created from either of the following steps:
| |
|
| |
| 1. Finder > Services > New terminal at folder
| |
|
| |
| -or-
| |
|
| |
| 2. press the provided shortcut key F5
| |
|
| |
| * Then enter $maestro to open the suite.
| |
| * Draw the molecule on the workspace area. Modifications can be made through the Edit panel > build > fragments > atom properties. Sponge the drawn molecule for clarity.
| |
| * To save the molecule, create this entry on the project table -or- from the workspace option > project entry > name and create the project and then save.
| |
| * The next step is to put the molecule under energy minimization to find a stable energetically conformation.

|
| |
| B. Energy Minimization
| |
|
| |
| * To initiate energy minimization, go to the Applications option > Impact > Minimization.
| |
| * Minimization analyzes the molecule using Classical Physics.
| |
| * A dialog box appears with the force field set on OPLS 2005.
| |
| * Then click the Minimization tab. On the maximum cycles, this was changed to 10,000. The other standard parameters such as gradient criterion (0.01) and energy change criterion (1e-07) were kept. The pH was changed to the desired pH level of 7.4.
| |
| * Knowing there are amino acids present, by changing the pH of the parameters, the structure must also be converted to its alkoxide form at pH 7.4. As a result, through atom types O3 was changed to OM.
| |
| * After all the parameters were set for minimization, the host zorro was chosen and the minimization was started.
| |
| * Double-click the finished minimization on the monitor jobs (from applications option)
