Hi All,
I am tying to heat my system (protein + bound cofactor) slowly. I am using
ntt =3 with gamma_ln = 1.0, Below mentioned is the script which I am using.



Heating the system linearly with weak restraints
 &cntrl
 imin = 0,
 irest = 0,
 ntx = 1,
 ntb = 1,
 cut = 12,
 ntr = 1,
 ntc = 2,
 ntf = 2,
 tempi = 0.0,
 temp0 = 300.0,
 ntt = 3,
 ig = 20933
 gamma_ln = 1.0, nmropt=1,
 nstlim = 50000, dt = 0.002
 ntpr = 100, ntwx = 100, ntwr = 1000
 /
 &wt TYPE='TEMP0', istep1=0, istep2=40000,
 value1=0.1, value2=300.0, /
 &wt TYPE='DUMPFREQ',ISTEP1=10, /
 &wt TYPE='END' /
Keep protein fixed
5.0
RES 1 339
END
END

The equilibration runs fine upto 9100 steps. After that there is* no change
in the mdout file* but the sander job is running. Previously I didnt
included Ig value in my script so I thought that it may be due to Ig value
as I am using ntt=3. Next time I added the Ig value (a random number) but
this time also the run is upto 7100 steps after that there is no change in
the mdout file.

Below mentioned is the last line of my output file:

 NSTEP = 7000 TIME(PS) = 14.000 TEMP(K) = 49.27 PRESS =
0.0
 Etot = -211822.1441 EKtot = 5837.1249 EPtot =
-217659.2690
 BOND = 323.1122 ANGLE = 956.0308 DIHED =
3200.9235
 1-4 NB = 1056.0283 1-4 EEL = 14174.4148 VDWAALS =
35009.8809
 EELEC = -272523.6263 EHBOND = 0.0000 RESTRAINT =
143.9667
 EAMBER (non-restraint) = -217803.2357
 Ewald error estimate: 0.3030E-04

 NMR restraints: Bond = 0.000 Angle = 0.000 Torsion = 0.000

Please suggest me where I am wrong..

Thanks
