Re: [AMBER] Proplem about how to set substrate concentration

The concentration is the number of moles per volume, and therefore you only
need the number of substrate molecules and the cell volume. I suggest you
add to your system an estimated number of acetate molecules and run one
equilibration minimization-dynamics cycle, so you have the equilibrated
volume of your system (in A3). From this you can calculate the operating
acetate concentration, which can be iteratively corrected by changing the
number of ligands and/or the initial volume of your box.

I hope that helped.
Best
