just to be clear-
positional (ntr=1) restraints on the protein
distance restraints (nmropt=1) on the DNA
what is the targeted MD for? what is the reference structure, and what
is the rmsd that you are trying to change?

From X-ray experiment the essential part of the protein does not change much after forming complex with DNA so I add positional restraints to this part. The distang restraints were added to the DNA to maintain its featured structure. These restraints seem to work friendly during my implicit solvent tests.
