Only part of the protein is moving in MD simulation

Hello,

I am running a simulation of a membrane protein in water box with PBC and I
imposed a harmonic constraint of 0.5 kcal/mol on the protein atoms. Even
after 1 ns of equilibration, only the bottom part of the protein has moved a
bit and the top part has not moved at all. I am suspecting that it could be
because of high pressure (I am running an NVT simulation).

Has anyone observed such a trend before?

Thanks,
Uma
