Hi,
I have a protein of interest which requires distance restraint for C alpha
atoms. However, the simulation does not seem to include the restraint at
all.

Do I need to use "define = -DDISTRES" and "ifdef DISPOSRES" instead?
No, because you haven't enclosed your [distance_restraints] in any #ifdef block,
so they are always active.
Is
distance restraint only used in NMR refinement but not MD?
No, they can be used during any process. There are relevant .mdp options that
must be set, though (see the manual).
How have you determined that the restraints aren't working?
