Re: equilibrating the system with constrained Protein

Hi Dhiraj,
please have a look at the NAMD manual entry on constraints
(http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/2.6/ug/node28.html), and the
gramicidin tutorial
(http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/tutorial/NCSA2002/hands-on/ and
subsequent pages). In brief, you need to make a separate pdb file that
has the atomic coordinates you want to constrain things to, and
containing a spring constant in either the beta or occupancy field.
