CHARMM
• Routine exploration of folding landscapes helps in search for protein folding solution
• Understanding folding critical to structural genomics, biophysics, drug design, etc.
• Key to understanding cell malfunctions in Alzheimer’s, cystic fibrosis, etc.
• CHARMM and Amber benefit majority (>80%) of bio-molecular scientists
• Structural genomic & protein structure predictions

Application Characteristics
• Parameter-space study– Parameters correspond to structures along
& near folding path
• Path unknown - could be many or broad– Many places along path sampled for
determining local low free energy states– Path is valley of lowest free energy states
from high free energy state of unfolded protein to lowest free energy state (folded native protein)

Folding of Protein L
• Immunoglobulin-binding protein– 62 residues (small), 585 atoms
– 6500 water molecules, total 20085 atoms
– Each parameter point requires O(106) dynamics steps
– Typical folding surfaces require 100-200 sampling runs
• CHARMM using most accurate physics available for classical molecular dynamics simulation
– PME, 9 Ao cutoff, heuristic list update, SHAKE
• Multiple 16-way parallel runs - maximum efficiency

NATIONAL PARTNERSHIP FOR ADVANCED COMPUTATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Application Characteristics
• Many independent runs
– 200 sets of data to be simulated in two sequential runs
• Equilibration (4-8 hours)
• Production/sampling (8 to 16 hours)
• Each point has task name, e.g., pl_1_2_1_e

LEGION
• Network slowdowns– Slowdown in the middle of the run– 100% loss for packets of size ~8500 bytes
• Site failures– LoadLeveler restarts– NFS/AFS failures
• Legion– No run-time failures– Archival support lacking– Must address binary differences

Successes
• Science accomplished faster– 1 month on 128 SGI Origins @Scripps– 1.5 days on national grid with Legion
• Transparent access to resources– User didn’t need to log on to different machines– Minimal direct interaction with resources
• Problems identified• Legion remained stable
– Other Legion users unaware of large runs
• Large grid application run at powerful resources by one person from local resource
• Collaboration between natural and computer scientists

Summary
• CHARMM Run– Succeeded in starting big runs– Encountered problems– Learnt lessons for future– Let’s do it again!
• more processors, systems, organisations
• AmberGrid– Showed proof-of-concept - grid portal– Need to resolve licence issues
