Dear All,
Thanks the reply. But I think I need to discuss with you further on whether I need to discontinue my production MD. As I mentioned, resi 366-367 separated from the major body of the protein. By pymol I find resi 366-367 were at one edge of the box and were almost outside of the water box, and its neighbouring residues resi 365 and resi 368 were at the opposite edge of the box and were also almost outside of the water box. It seems that way, although at the initial step by editconf I have put the protein in the center of the cubic box (1.5 nm), during the first 6 ns the protein has moved significantly in the box, and at some moment resi 366-367 have moved out of the box, leading to the disconnection of resi 366-367 from the major body of the protein and finally leading to resi 366-367 at the opposite of its neighbouring residues resi 365 and resi 368 in the cubix box. Am I right? Brett At 2016-04-14 16:31:20, "Mark Abraham" <mark.j.abra...@gmail.com> wrote: >Hi, > >As the link Justin gave you says, and Tsjerk has since confirmed, this is >normal.
