Dear all,
 
I am running MD simulaiton using Gromacs for alpha-helilx polyalanine solution. 
The initial configuraiton of polyalanine peptide was generated using Discovery 
Studio. I follow the procedure below:
1: solvate the polyalanine in a water box
2: energy minimization (steep for 5000 steps and cg for some steps until 
convergence)
3: position restraint MD for 200 ps in NVT
4: position restraint MD for 200 ps in NPT
After that, I run MD simulation. The strange things is that the 
alpha-helix polyalanine melt during MD simulation, and it became random coil 
after several nano seconds.
 
Did any one encount such problem? 
 
Thanks very much,
