Hello,

I have identified a set of amino acid residues that surround a small
molecule binding site.  How would I go about restraining the small molecule
ligand to the center of mass of the surrounding residues?  I want the
molecule to be able to bounce around in the binding site to let if find the
most energetically favorable configuration.

You could either set up a spherical flat-bottom restraint with the origin of that restraint coincident with the COM of the desired residues, or you could use the pull code to set a restraint between the COM of the protein residues and the COM of the ligand.
