Hi,
I'm running an Umbrella Sampling analysis, with 1A steps in the
reaction coordinate (distance) to estimate a PMF. However, owing to
(high?) energetic barriers between my two proteins, some coordinates
are not sampled. I intend to run simulations with stronger force
constants to prevent my protein from fleeing to the nearest energetic
minima.
So my question is : does using different force constants to restrain
the distance between my two proteins influences the PMF estimated by
g_wham ?
No, it is perfectly fine (and sometimes necessary) to combine umbrella
simulations with different force constants. The g_wham result should be
fine (if not, tell me, thanks!).
Cheers,
Jochen
From what I understood, it doesn't seems so, as long as the
distributions are well overlapped. But since I intend to invest a
considerable amount of CPU time, a confirmation would be really
apreciated !
Thanks,
Jonathan.
