AMBER: md's

Hi amber,
I want to clear a doubt regarding md that if i am performing a simulation(explicit or implicit) over a native protein which is obtained by NMR(which are less reliable structures as compared to X-ray), how long should i simulate in such a case. lets say i am doing for 500 ps, then can the structure after 500ps be the representative of the native and then if i want to compare the rmsd of this structure with some other structure, should i take this 500ps structure or the initial structure. Also i have learnt that for calculating energies averages over the trajactory are performed, but if i want to compare the structures(for which i have to calculate rmsd's) should i rely on the last structure or the whole trajactory.
Thanks
Yen
