Dear Jiyuan
MCPB is reasonable, the second method in my opinion is very
unsatisfactory (and wrong), actually it does not conserve the X-ray
structure.
There are a lot of literature about metalloproteins simulations maybe
you can read L.Banci Curr Opin Chem Biol. 2003 Feb;7(1):143-9.
But the are also other interesting, and more recent review. However
also in this work of the 2003 there are some still valid lessons to
simulate metallo-proteins.
