Dear Jason,
You pointed out very correctly, it was only memory issues. i ran one
trajectory without offering any masks, it required only 8GB of memory. Now
I would like to ask another thing. Is it possible to get any information
about the ligand in the complex as does not belong to any standard amino
acid groups. How can we detect information about nonstandard residues using
the hbond facility?
thank you
