Dear gmx-users,
(This is not related to my previous question about the failure of the simulation. Now I guess that there are some technical problems in our cluster system.)

Hello gmx-users, I am not a quite new user, but still don't know many many thing.
Planning an experiment I hope to listen to your advices.

Recently I plan to perform free energy calculation to test the stability of a loop in a protein. To do so, I will select two atoms; one in the backbone atom of the loop and the other in the backbone of the protein nearby the loop region. Then, those sites are connected by a [ bond ] and the spring constant will be changed from 0 to 100 as lambda changes from 0 to 1. (The equilibrium length is fixed to 20 A.)

I am wandering  whether this simulation will be generally accepted or not.

How does such a calculation reveal the "stability of [the] loop"? You need a more precise goal in order to design a calculation to measure something. Perhaps some more background reading is in order :-)
