Welcome to SSTMap Release version 1.1.4 Thank you for using SSTMap, we've gone through a great deal of work trying to ensure compatibility with various operating systems and MD packages though we have not covered all the possible combinations. If you run into a bug, please report it on the issues and we will work to quickly resolve it.
Thank you,
Kamran and the Development Team.
SSTMap is a tool to study structural and thermodynamic properties of water molecules on solute surfaces. It combines grid inhomogeneous solvation theory (IST) with measures of water structure to produce mapping of solvation structure and thermodynamics in protein binding sites and on the surfaces of other molecules of interest, such as small-molecules or host-guest systems. It provides both site-based and grid-based calculations in one package, with support for multiple MD packages and can be integrated into Python’s scientific computing environment for advanced applications. The cross-platform support is enabled by trajectory and topology parsers of MDTraj and ParmEd.
Please check the instructions Here.
SSTMap provides command-line tools for hydration site analysis (HSA) and Grid Inhomogeneous Solvation Theory (GIST), run_hsa
and run_gist
, respectively. The functionality of SSTMap is also available through its Python API, available as the sstmap
module. For more details, please visit sstmap.org.
An example of running a quick HSA and GIST calculation on a test system available in sstmap_test_suite. You can download the full test suite from here (since Github repository doesn't contain trajectory files). For a given platform, cd
to its sub-directory and run the commands as shown below.
cd sstmap_test_suite/platforms/amber
$ run_hsa -i testcase.prmtop -t md100ps.nc -l ligand.pdb -s 0 -f 100 -o testcase
$ run_gist -i testcase.prmtop -t md100ps.nc -l ligand.pdb -g 20 20 20 -s 0 -f 100 -o testcase
For examples using MD simulations generated from other packages, such as Amber, Charmm, Gromacs, NAMD, OpenMM and Desmond, please follow this tutorial on sstmap.org. SSTMap can also be used as a Python module:
import sstmap as sm
# Example 1: Run a grid-based calculation
# with all quantities.
gist = sm.GridWaterAnalysis(
"casp3.prmtop",
"casp3.netcdf",
ligand_file="casp3_ligand.pdb",
grid_dimensions=[40, 40, 40],
prefix="casp3")
gist.calculate_grid_quantities()
# Example 2: Run gist with only energy calculations.
gist.calculate_grid_quantities(energy=True)
# Example 3: Initialize gist with a grid center position.
gist = sm.GridWaterAnalysis(
"casp3.prmtop",
"casp3.netcdf",
grid_center=[35.33, 52.23, 54.96],
grid_dimensions=[40, 40, 40],
prefix="casp3")
