Hej Alex,
I think to simulate the binding events of N-3-OXO-DODECANOYL-L-HOMOSERINE
LACTONE in your quorum sensing protein, you may concider the application of
Steered molecular dynamics *SMD of Targeted molecular dynamics to observe
the binding events as well as the free energy profiles from the simulation.
The link attached is a manual from NAMD that can held out.
