Dear Elahe.
What proof do you have that the ligand is stable in the active site ?
If it really moves too much, then maybe it should be there in the first
place ?
I do not know what type of restrains you put in there, but if they are
distances, putting two or three different ones should not allow the
ligand to move too much with respect to teh frame of reference of the
active site.
