Just because a structure has an inherent symmetry does not mean the dynamics will also be symmetric. That being said, we are currently implementing in NAMD ways to impose symmetry-based restraints to force the structure to maintain a given symmetry over time.

Maybe the time of my dynamics is not enough to see a symmetrical development? Could you give me more information about this point? About the limit of MD simulation to see these symmetrical states?
