hi Justin,
Thanks for your reply...
I am interested in looking for the stability of the docked pose, by applying some temperature variation in the molecule. If I am applying temperature variation then should I use pressure coupling simultaneously.

Well that's going to depend on how much you're varying the temperature. I have a colleague who has done some thermal stability simulations upwards of 600K and the NPT algorithm breaks down (using AMBER). I don't know if that's true of the Gromacs code as well.

Can you suggest some tutorial for such attempts.....


Well, I don't know about tutorials, but (again depending on how much you're varying the temperature) some of the literature regarding thermal stability of proteins over wide temperature ranges might be of interest.

With Thanks,

        Hi There,
        I am running MDS over the docked poses to check the stability of
        the docked poses using gromacs.
        I have few doubts about selecting parameters for the same, If
        anybody have tried such thing earlier, please suggest me for the
        same.

        Should I keep pressure coupling over the simulation ?


    Sure; life exists at NPT, so it is commonly used in routine protein
    simulations.


        For how long should I run the simulation for such purpose ?


    That's up to you :)  You should run the simulations as long as you
    feel necessary to achieve stability.  I know that's vague, but there
    really is no single correct answer to this question in the MD field.
     If there is, I'd love for someone to tell me, too...;)

        Waiting for suggestions.

        With Thanks,
        Vivek
