Hi everyone,
I am trying to simulate the Lipopolysaccharide molecule of 271 atoms. The
initial structure was drawn and saved in the .pdb format which stays as the
input file for the simulation (attached herewith).
However when I am trying to run minimization of the water molecules
restraining the molecule itself, it is showing me the output where some
energy values are ************ .
*Min_restraint.input*
Minimization
&cntrl
imin=1,
maxcyc=5000,
ncyc=2500,
ntb=1,
cut=10.0,
igb=0,
ntpr=500,
ntr=1,
ntwx=500,
ntwr=500,
ntwx=500,
ntx=1,
/
Hold solute fixed
100.0
RES 0
END
END
*OUTPUT looks  like:*

Q1. What could be the error causing this?
Q2. How can I refine it to get a good minimized structure for the next
steps of simulations?
Any suggestions and help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
