Dear all,
-I am running a MD simulation of a protein in a periodic box of water
using PME. The protein has a net charge of -11. Should I neutralize
the protein with counterions (using leap?) before running PME MD?
Is this correct? I saw that PME forces neutrality by itself...
-Is a box 9Angstrom away from every atom of the protein enough for
properly account solvation?
-Since PME calculations on my protein (230AA + 9600WAT) are very
slow on a IBM-SP3 (4procs used), I would like to hear somebodyelse
experience using PME, PBC on proteins...
Thanks in advance,
Giulio
