Hi,
During equilibration of a transmembrane peptide-bilayer system, I want to
avoid water entering the bilayer, mainly because I need the system to
equilibrate to the right area before running contraint-free dynamics. Is
there a way to setup planar harmonic constraints in NAMD ?
If not, I guess I will have set up constraints on all waters during
equilibration ?
If so, will the simulation crash if the area of the bilayer/peptide
assembly shrinks ?
Thanks a ton for the inputs !
