Thanks Sir for the reply... This question is related to my first query that if we constraint the dihedral of the turn residue how can we fix/freeze the movement of other residues.

As I am interested in only getting the energy of the hairpin when the turn residues are constrained within a particular phi psi angle range....

.. and with what are you going to compare those energies? And what will that comparison mean?

        Thanks for the reply . Is it possible to calculate the
        dihedral energy of certain residues, like in my case for turn
        residues ??.. How can that be done


    First, seek to define "dihedral energy"... Force fields are not
    parametrized such that parts of them are expected to correlate
    with observables.



        This another question is regarding energy minimization.
        Suppose, I minimize the the protein solvated in water, the
        energy value that I get is for the whole system or for the
        protein alone. If it's for the system then how can I get the
        energy for the protein alone.


    You can define energy groups (see manual) to do this for the
    nonbonded contributions. Bonded contributions are easy to do in
    your case. Whether this energy is useful for anything is quite
    another matter.
