it's much more complex than that. It is difficult to give advice when
I don't know how much you've read about REMD and don't know anything
about your simulation system or goals, but it's an advanced method and
you'll need to do a lot of reading before you can be successful. I
suggest finding articles in the literature that used REMD to solve
problems very much like yours, and follow their procedures. Keep in
mind that temperature spacing is system size dependent. If nobody has
used REMD on a system like yours, be prepared for a lot of trial and
error and you'll probably only get it to work if you have extensive
experience with REMD and with RNA simulations. Keep in mind that RNA
force fields are less well developed than those for proteins, so it
may not be possible to get acceptable results even if you get the REMD
part to work well.
