Hi Dan,
here I am proving you the detail which you were asking:

1) In VMD, which module did you use to calculate RMSD (RMSD Tool or
RMSD Trajectory Tool), what selection did you use, what options did
you have checked, and what structure was chosen as your reference?
I used the RMSD Trajectory tool. In that I first aligned the trajectories to
the pdb generated using ambpdb after equilibration. Then I calculated the
rmsd for the backbone atoms (Backbone atom definition: C CA N) And I got the
rmsd in the range of 6-8.

2) For ptraj, send your complete ptraj.in.

trajin prod1.crd
reference eq2.pdb
rms reference out rmsd_to_lowest_energy_struct.dat .N,CA,C time 1.0
