Re: [AMBER] restraints in igb simulation

I just wanted to constrain the receptor so that it does not move from its initial position and also constrain a ligand so that it only moves with a box. My question is simply how to achieve this in pmemd when igb is used? Any thoughts are highly appreciated.

It completely depends on what you're trying to do.

Without that it's hard to give anything but the most generic (unhelpful) advice.

Think hard about the question you are trying to answer and what simulation details would be required to probe that.
