You can apply a harmonic bond between the two atoms.
More precisely, you should apply harmonic distance restraints. While an
harmonic bond is possible, you want an interaction that does not affect
the construction of non-bonded exclusion lists. It should be
straightforward to conserve an alpha helix with some
thoughtfully-selected pseudo-hydrogen-bonds.
Srinivas refers to position restraints, but there are all manner of
other restraints that you can read about in the manual.

Dear all,
I know that we can place harmonic constraints on selective atoms,
specified by an index file. But this only ensures that the atom
position remains same throughout the simulation.
But if I only want two atoms' positions to remain same only relative
to one another but the atoms can move otherwise, is there any way to
do this? I want to know this because I want a fragment of the protein
to remain alpha helical throughout the simulation, but I dont want it
to conserve its original co-ordinates.
