Hi,
Just to add my 5 cEUR. The flying ice cube will be avoided using linear comm
removal on the whole system (default), which will retain diffusion of the
peptide in the solvent.
Thanks Tsjerk for clarifying my quickanddurty statement. Removing the COM
motion of the whole system is fine, my concern was to do it separately on
the solvent and peptide.
The peaks you see in the comm I guess are due to the
update of the neighbour list (every ten steps?). This will change the system
a bit more than usually, causing the peptide to suddenly see different
interacting particles.
Cheers,
Tsjerk

I do not think you want to remove the center of mass motion of your
peptide, and certainly not of your solvent. The diffusion of the peptide
is certainly something you should expect. If it looks like a flying
ice cube that means that there are some parameters that you should
modify in your mdp file.
