Hi,
I am doing a simulation to test the stability of some modeled structures
(~100 amino acids). The RMSD remains below 1.5 Ang while the values from
rmsd_residue_over_time are ~10 Ang. I looked at the trajectory and found
that the molecule shifts from center towards the edge of the box during the
simulation. I have kept wrapNearest and wrapAll ON and the PME grid sizes
are 64, 64, 54 and am using Langevin piston method.
My questions are:
1. How can I keep my molecule at the center through out the simulation.
2. Are the values from rmsd_residue_over_time high because my molecule
drifts during simulation? Can I bring all the frames in one reference frame
and then calculate rmsd_residue_over_time, to get correct estimate. If yes,
then how do I do that?
I am attaching my configuration file for your concern. Looking forward for
your suggestions.
Best,
