I have performed a simulation of a protein in a lipid bilayer and I
want to look at the lengths of time that a particular lipid type, lipid
type A, say, remains within a certain distance of the protein.

I have calculated the distances between lipid type A and the protein.
Obviously, the trajectories of each particle are not smooth, so neither
are the distances between atoms of lipid type A and the protein.
Because I want to look at a continuous amounts of time that lipid type A
molecules are proximal to the protein, it seems to make sense to smooth
the distances, using xmgrace, for instance.  Does this make sense to
you? If so, how should I go about determining by how much to smooth the
distances, or indeed the atom trajectories?  Is it worth looking at the
velocity autocorrelations or is this a slightly different question?


Many thanks,

Anna
