This is part of the isdb module |
Calculates the Pseudocontact shift of a nucleus determined by the presence of a metal ion susceptible to anisotropic magnetization.
The PCS of an atomic nucleus depends on the \(\theta\) angle between the vector from the spin-label to the nucleus and the external magnetic field and the module of the vector itself [27] . While in principle the averaging resulting from the tumbling should remove the pseudocontact shift, in presence of the NMR magnetic field the magnatically anisotropic molecule bound to system will break the rotational symmetry does resulting in measurable PCSs and RDCs.
PCSs can also be calculated using a Single Value Decomposition approach, in this case the code rely on the a set of function from the GNU Scientific Library (GSL). (With SVD forces are not currently implemented).
Replica-Averaged simulations can be perfomed using PCSs, ENSEMBLE, STATS and RESTRAINT . Metainference simulations can be performed with this CV and METAINFERENCE .

ARG | the input for this action is the scalar output from one or more other actions. The particular scalars that you will use are referenced using the label of the action. If the label appears on its own then it is assumed that the Action calculates a single scalar value. The value of this scalar is thus used as the input to this new action. If * or *.* appears the scalars calculated by all the proceding actions in the input file are taken. Some actions have multi-component outputs and each component of the output has a specific label. For example a DISTANCE action labelled dist may have three componets x, y and z. To take just the x component you should use dist.x, if you wish to take all three components then use dist.*.More information on the referencing of Actions can be found in the section of the manual on the PLUMED Getting Started. Scalar values can also be referenced using POSIX regular expressions as detailed in the section on Regular Expressions. To use this feature you you must compile PLUMED with the appropriate flag. You can use multiple instances of this keyword i.e. ARG1, ARG2, ARG3... |

In the following example five PCSs are defined and their correlation with respect to a set of experimental data is calculated and restrained. In addition, and only for analysis purposes, the same PCSs are calculated using a Single Value Decomposition algorithm.
