Dear GROMACS users,
While running a simple MD simulation with both a small protein such as
BPTI and a larger one such as tmRBP_Unliganded_2FN9.pdb, I'm
encountering an odd situation in which one (in the case of BPTI) or
several Calphas (in the later case) are "detaching them selfs" from the
main group.
The problem appeared only after adding salt to the simulation(at least
in the case of BPTI).
I would appreciate any suggestions and comments on the matter.
Thanks
Arik
