Apart Thomas's explanation, I wanted to add something about fixing the
backbone. There are a couple of ways to do this. In one of my systems, I
have used the positional restrains to keep the structure close to the
initial structure. What this means is that you will sample around the
initial structure in the phase. You can also use torsional NMR restraints
to keep the backbone close around a particular conformation. I would
suggest to use the positional restraints because it is very easy. Good
luck.
