Dear all
We have started a protein-drug MD simulation, we found the following issues;
1) Few amino acids cleaved and detached from the main chain (469 amino acids ), after minimization of the complex.
2) After equilibration stage, the drug (C16H28N2O4) is considerably moved out ,compared to the X-ray crystallographic structure available in PDB.
We will be thankful to you if you recommend suggestions to troubleshoot the issues.
Inputs are mentioned below for your perusal
