Thank you very much, Vikror. But I am confused. Maybe I didn't make
myself clear in my last email: the overall RMSD(residue 3-122) between
the initial structure and the reference structure is 4.345, so I set
tgtrmsd=4.435. now I want to apply targeted MD at residue 81-86, all
the other is free to move, then see if the simulated structure
achieves the reference structure or not at the end. By this,I can
judge if the residues 81-86 play as a key in this sturcuture change.
after reading your reply, besides switching the maskes, I also need to
change the tgtrmsd value. this value should be the RMSD of residue 81-
86 between the initail and the reference structure, am I right? Thanks
again

Shawn
