Hi everybody,
I'm simulating a system in which there is a conserved water molecule in the binding site of the protein. I used restraint_wt=1.0 during energy minimization, restraint_wt=0.1 during heating and density equilibration. This resulted to the water molecule flying out of the binding site.
It's obvious that I should had used stronger restraints. Is there a rule of thumb as to the range of restraints that one should use during minimization, heating and density equilibration? Should there be a gradual relaxation of restraints before production MD?
Thanks in advance for any advice
Regards
George
