Hi, I have simulated a protein-ligand complex for 5ns. I checked distance between the important residues of protein and the ligand using g_dist. My question is can the distance between the two groups decrease from the initial distance (docked complex as starting structure for simulation). I know it may increase or may remain same at the end of the simulation.
for example: starting distance is 0.77nm and final distance is 0.8nm but the intermediate course of simulation (around 3ns) it has decreased upto 0.65. The complex shows stability after 2ns. While the SASA between the two groups is around 6.3 nm2 throughout the simulation which is very high. This is very contradicting result. Is something wrong in the simulation? Thanks in advance. -- Archana Sonawani-Jagtap Junior Research Fellow, Biomedical Informatics Centre, NIRRH (ICMR), Parel Mumbai, India. 9960791339 -- gmx-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! * Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
