Tanping,

Thanks for your attention. I want to restrain the
water's orientation close to protein surface. I have
two problems:

* what is a good reference group for the orientation?
* The orire_fc value.

Is orientational restraints the proper function I
should use? Thank you again for your nice help.

I don't know and have no experience with this. However, in terms of
general advice, when you ask for a specific value for something (i.e.
the orientational restraints force constant) you probably want to
explain what exactly you want a force constant for, as one would
obviously use a very different force constant to restrain a water
molecule than a protein.

Otherwise, all I can say is try and find other work that has
restrained water orientations, and look to see what they've done and
whether it worked well. I am not too clear on why you would want to do
this.
