Re: restrain a residue as center of mass

Target md seems to satisfy what I want if I can use
zero RMSD. I really do not want any internal motions.
However, sander seems to stop running at a point. It
gives the same result no matter if I assign the
tgtrmsd or not.

   4. RESULTS

 PROBLEM CALCULATING RMSDVALUE F


 Here is my input file.

 &cntrl
   igb = 0, ntb = 0, ntpr = 100, ntwx = 10,
   cut = 10.0,
   tempi = 300.0, temp0 = 300.0, ntt = 1, tautp = 0.5,
   imin = 0,
   nstlim = 1000, dt = 0.001,
   itgtmd=1
 &end
Restrain the residue
RES 1
END
END
