Average coordinates are problematic and not generally representative. Consider for instance the average coordinates of a methyl group connected to X. The rotation around the C-X bond causes the average positions of the hydrogens to line up. Consider using g_cluster to find representative structu

Thanks for your reply. Actually I am interested to see how much structural deviation is occurring in a protein during the simulation from its average position of atoms rather than the initial position (crystal structure or starting structure). The motivation of doing this analysis is the fact that

Hi Bipin Singh, That indeed gives you the RMSD against the average. Do think about it a bit more: do you want the average of the whole structure, or should you account for a phase of relaxation? Cheers, Tsjerk On Wed, Apr 24, 2013 at 2:17 PM, Justin Lemkul wrote: > > > On 4/24/13 3:06 AM, bi
