Indeed. I've run production trajectories. In fact, I'm trying to reproduce some literature results. In my simulation the ligand forms Hbonds with a sub-set of residues reported in a published paper. This prompted me to suggest that my simulation does not explore the complete binding site.

The restraints was applied both on the protein residues and the ligand during both density and pressure equilibration. My question is whether removing the restraints on the ligand during pressure equilibration would result in a more effective search of conformational space.
