In short - you can apply PBC in all directions (XYZ) by choosing the proper keyword in the .mdp file, I believe the box dimensions are defined in .gro file. Omer. Koby Levy research group, Weizmann Institute of Science. http://www.weizmann.ac.il/sb/faculty_pages/Levy/ On Fri, Oct 10, 2008 at 16:

You might want to try Simbody (simtk.org). This will allow you to rigidify any part or parts of the molecule you choose. As a bonus, you will not spend resources computing intramolecular interactions in the rigidified regions. Sam On Oct 10, 2008, at 6:10 AM, Justin A. Lemkul wrote:

Boundary should not "precisely" be around the protein, otherwise some parts of the protein would "feel" other parts via the boundary. In general, if you apply periodic boundary conditions (PBC), take the dimensions as such so the protein would NOT feel the PBC. Say you have an unfolded protein (or
