Dear all,

I am trying to perform simulation of a protein with several ligands, in case of certain ligands I found that the ligand is coming out of the protein after 5-6 ns. I have checked the energy of the system, but it does not show any abrupt change, still the ligand is coming out of protein after a certain time.Is it due to steric hindrance during the course of the simulation or something else? I can not debug, please help. Thanks in advance.


Several possibilities:

1. You have lousy parameters for your ligand.
2. Periodicity effects (search the archive).
3. The ligand doesn't bind strongly, so this is normal.

#1 and #2 are the most likely, given the time scale you've used.
