Options

Output Column Structure

Choose the output columns:

Input plus Output - The input columns are included in the output.

Output replaces Input - The output columns are the same as the input, with the output structures replacing the input column selected

Output only - Only Output structures

Include log in output

Include the Macromodel log file in the output table

Column containing input

Column in the input data table containing molecules in Maestro format

Force field

Available force fields: MM2, MM3, AMBER, OPLS, AMBER94, MMFF, MMFFs, OPLS_2005 (default)

Solvent

• None (default)
• Water

Electrostatics

• forcefield = use dielectric treatment encoded within force field file. All our force fields are supplied, by default, with constant dielectric electrostatics (default)
• constant = force constant dielectric electrostatics
• distance-dependent = use distance-dependent dielectric electrostatics

Dielectric constant

Molecular dielectric constant (default = 1.0).

Charges from

Cutoff

• Van der Waals
• Electrostatic
• H-bond

Maximum iterations

Converge on

Convergence threshold

Method

• MCMM/LMOD (default)
• MCMM
• LMOD

Retain mirror-image conformations

By default, a structure and its mirror image are both considered when comparing with the other structures. If one of the two matches, the structure is eliminated. Selecting this option keeps both the structure and its mirror image. This option is useful when stereochemistry is critical for the biological function of the molecule, for example.

MC Steps

The Number of Monte Carlo steps to be carried out (default = 1000).

Energy Window (kJ/Mol)

The window for permissible energy above the lowest-energy conformation. This setting discards any structure that is more than x kJ/mol above the minimum energy conformation (default = 100.0).

Distance cutoff for redundant conformers

The geometric criterion which defines two structures to be identical within a conformational search or a multiple minimization. The search algorithm uses as its criterion not the root-mean-square interatomic distance after optimal rigid-body superposition of a pair of structures, but rather the maximum distance between corresponding atoms after superposition (default=0.25).

Max # of conformers

Maximum number of conformers to retain as the final result for each search performed. All translates to 0 (default), otherwise Max # uses the value in the field.

Parameter flow variables

Any valid option for this node can be specified through flow variables. Only String variables are accepted.
Usage:
Flow variable prefix keyword: MmodConfSearch
Note: To specify an option as flow variable, the flow variable name should be like:
keyword-option_name for single-dash option
keyword--option_name for double-dash option

To add a new option with value, specify the option_name and the corresponding value through flow variable.

To add a new option without value, specify the option_name and the value as _on_ through flow variable.

To override an existing option's value in the command line, just specify the option_name and the new value through the flow variable.

To remove an existing option from command line, just specify the option_name and the value as _off_ through the flow variable.

To pick the value from a column in the input table, specify the option_name and the value as :column_name: through the flow variable. Any column other than String, Integer and Double types will be written to a file and the file name is added as the option value.
