Dear Case

Sorry for making you confuse. I am trying to make it more clear.

'Sometimes' means the structures yielded out in time scale, some
structures show that the whole molecule structure stay together, some
structures show that the molecule became two parts.

Because this molecule cannot be found in ff99 force field, I generate
top and crd files of the molecule using antechanber and GAFF force
field. Then the whole complex was made by tleap.

After this step, the top and crd files were input to run MD, and my MD
method is Glycam.

Yes, the covalent bonds in the molecule were broken in some structures
in the trajectory file.

Thanks

Jason
