Re: [AMBER] Error in ptraj after using iwrap=1, even using center and image origin

Hi,

First, have you visualized the imaged trajectory to see if your issue
is actually due to imaging artifacts? In order to do this you will
need a much simpler script. Also, it's tough to tell because your
ptraj script as you posted it is jumbled (no newlines) but the
'trajout' command does not accept a mask (i.e. the '.N1,C' does
nothing). To make things simpler just 'trajin' a small portion of
xxx.mdcrd where the RMSD jumps occur so you can see what is going on.
For example, if one of the jumps occurs within the first 50 frames:

trajin ./xxx.mdcrd 1 50 1
center :1-677 origin
image origin center familiar
trajout imaged.netcdf netcdf

 Also, is your protein (residues 1-677) a monomer?
