Dear Amber users,

I have started using iwrap=1 in simulations of solvated protein:DNA
complexes, as has been suggested to keep all atoms in the same box image.
However, after ~800 ps the DNA (16bp) still appears to dissociate from the
peptide (66 aa). Is ptraj still needed to bring these noncovalently bonded
components back into the same box?

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,
