I am interesting in modeling a small molecule ligand-protein complex that
involves a cationic ligand encapsulated by several aromatic residues that form
a box around the cation. However, md simulations result in the cation moving
outside the box. I am using the CHARMM27 forcefield. Is there a way to restrain
the cation portion of the small molecule to within the aromatic box? Or is
there a better forcefield, which will take these interactions into
consideration.
More than likely you simply need to account for periodicity.
