Re: [gmx-users] small tc-group

I would couple it with the membrane to be honest. The point of the different groups is to avoid the hot solvent cold solute sitution. Molecules with similar degrees of freedom have comparable heat capacities. Your small peptide is closer in size and bond layout to a lipid chain than to water. The

Hi I have a system with a lipid bilayer (128 phospolipids), aproximately 30 SOL molecules per lipid, and a small highly charged peptide at certain distance from the bilayer. I want to do a pulling simulation in order to pull the peptide inside the membrane along the z-direction. So, taking into ac

What do you mean spurious protein movement? Also, the instantaneous electrostatic potential is always uneven, and I am not sure why the average electrostatic potential would change with excess salt, excepting that I would expect it to converge more rapidly with excess salt. Finally, if you are
