Hi,
my group and I are very new at using software to perform MD simulations. I
wanted to ask if VMD is capable of allowing us to modify nucleic acid
structures. If this is the case, are there any specific extensions/plugins
to this software that I may need? I was hoping someone could point me in
the right direction with this. So far my group and I have only been able to
perform simulations with existing structures from pdb files. I would like
the ability to modify these structures manually if possible, such as adding
chains to specific locations on the molecule. Please advise, thanks!
