Justin, it's not the artifacts of visualization program. At the beginning distance for isopeptide bond is 1.38 Angs (and it's defined at the specbond.dat);
LYS NZ 1 GLY C 1 0.13 LYQ GLQ together with energy minimization this distance increases to around 3.0 Angs. (with normal termination). However, when I continue to run for md sim. I am getting several LINCS warnings (actually these relative constr. deviations are not at the isopeptide bond). Any suggestions how to handle this problem?
