Re: [AMBER] SMD in Amber10

OK, so I should decrease initial restrained distance between ligand and some
active site residue during simulation in case of transport from solvent to
the pocket (or increase distance in case of transport from the pocket to
push ligand away). And certain direction of transport isn`t specified with
the hope that ligand will find its way by itself.
Am I right?
Thanks!
