Dear Sir, Yes it is the same protein. Initially I had not superposed the structures in the trajectory. But this time I calculated the msd on a superposed trajectory (of the same simulation). the simulation is carried out on a dimer for 50ns using OPLS-AA and TIP4P water model. Using Gromacs4.5.3. If any other information is required Please let me know.
