How Larger? I used 1000


No idea, but that's the first thing I'd try if using two atoms to resist the motion of thousands of others.

Hi there,

I have a dsDNA and I'd like to restraint just two atoms, O3' and O5'
respectively, in order to mimic the anchor-like to a solid support. I have
create ad hoc posre.itp file but for some reason the DNA-anchor is moving too
much from the starting position. I would expect more rigidity around the two
atoms. Does it sound strange to you? I mean, I was expecting oscillation of the
whole DNA but keeping the anchors fixed. Are two atoms too little to get this
kind behaviour (i.e. DNA-anchor)? The constant force is 1000 kJ/mol nm^2.

Any help/comments on this are welcome.


What about using a larger force constant?  Trying to impede the motion of an
entire dsDNA using only two atoms as restraints might be difficult to 
accomplish.
