Dear amber users,
Thank you for your quick reply, my out put file has given the lines
mentioned by you and they are as follows:
**************
Begin reading energy term weight changes/NMR restraints
WEIGHT CHANGES:
DUMPFREQ 10 0 0.000000 0.000000 0 0
** No weight changes given **
RESTRAINTS:
Requested file redirections:
DISANG = distcom112.RST
DUMPAVE = umbcom.112
Restraints will be read from file: distcom112.RST
Here are comments from the DISANG input file:
Number of restraints read = 1
Done reading weight changes/NMR restraints
********************
so from this it is understood there is one restrain considered, but
throughout the simulation run there is no restraint value.
I am interested in doing this as i want to do the PMF calculation using
umbrella sampling. The restrain value obtained is further used for WHAM to
generate the PMF. So the restraint values are important for the further
analysis.
Thanks in advance
