Dear Jason,

Thanks very much for your valuable advices.
It helps a lot.
They are the residues number.
I will give it a try.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Li Zhe

​You need ntr=1, restraintmask=':373-424,610-1198', and restraint_wt=5.0
(where 5.0 is the force constant in kcal/mol/A^2). This replaces the card
input at the bottom of the mdin file.

​You can use a trajectory visualization program (like VMD or Chimera) to
confirm whether or not the atoms you are trying to restrain are moving more
than you would expect.

​There should be text written to the mdout file telling you how many atoms
were restrained, but it's always good to verify expectations through
visualization.
