Dear Gromacs users, I am interested on studying the interaction between large metal cluster anions (polyoxometallates, POM) with different organic cations (e.g perylenes, etc..) in water. I have already the non bonded parameters of POMs from literature, while the bonded parameters I calculated from Gaussian and VFFDT software. If I do not apply a position restraining force on the POM atoms, the POM structure gets distorted too much from the experimental one. I guess this is due to the lack of a good force field parametrization for metal-containing compound. *Thus, my question is the following:* *can I keep applying a position restraining force on POM atoms during the minimization, equilibration and production steps or is it conceptually wrong?*
Thanks.
