Is it possible to pull (distance pull) along negative of Z axis (for
example, I'm saying Z) ? Do I need to mention -Z in pull code or the
program improvises if I say Z axis distance pull in .mdp ?


Yes, you can define a pull vector in the negative Z dimension (pull-coordN-vec = 0 0 -1 or whatever is appropriate).

Hello Justin,

Can you provide some direction to this approach I'm using for performing
umbrella sampling of a protein-ligand complex ?

I had restrained it during the equilibration of the molecule. As advised
in the
Protein-ligand simulation tutorial. But I'm unsure regarding what kind of
treatment I'm supposed to give the complex while targeting for umbrella
sampling. Do I need to restrain the ligand during equilibration ?

I have solved the crystal structure of the complex and want to determine
if I
pull out the ligand then how the side chains reorient according to the
ligand
withdrawal. That's the goal.

Some suggestions regarding the issue will be highly appreciated.


What does your examination of the literature for similar systems suggest
as an appropriate protocol?

Thank you

        Hi,

        Why are you trying to keep the ligand in place (by restraining
it) and pull
        it out?
