Thanks for your answer again. I will restrain the heavy atoms only first.

For the sake of clarity in the archive, it's probably best to avoid broad generalizations. People can easily stumble upon a post and take it way out of context. A "general situation" might encompass a lot. I will reiterate that if you want to recapitulate the behavior of pdb2gmx with respect to typical biomolecules, you should choose all non-H atoms. If you have some other specialized application, I can make no recommendation, nor can anyone else, in the absence of a more thorough description. -Justin > > lina > ________________________________________ > From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf > of Justin A.
