Dear Gromacs users! I have small question about order of the runs and input data. Ussually I do 2 equilibration phases and subsequent productive phase in the conditions wich are equal to the last equilibration phase ( e.g often this is npt ). In the second equil.mdp and md.mdp there is option

Justin, I have not quite sure about methodology of aplication of such harmonic distance restrains yet. E.g I want to constraint distancec of the backbone atoms of my protein within 7 A ( to allow deviation of all backnones up to 7 A) I've tried genrestr -f start.gro -n index.ndx -disre -disre_

Tsjerk, Thank you for suggestions! Indeed the hight temperature ( I'm using 700K) which I use for enhansing sampling rate resulted in destabilisation of the secondary structure. To prevent this I've used two slightly different aproaches based on the restraint. But in both cases I've used sligh
