Reimaging is the word. Maybe this older post still applies: "The cpptraj
action
'autoimage' was designed specifically to make this re-imaging easy."

Each polypeptide is a dimer (coiled coil) and the only difference between them is that one has a mutation at residue 21 (R21H) while the other does not (wild-type). No ligand was involved. When I calculated the RMSD, I noticed the "jumps", so I recorded a movie for each simulation and saw that the two strands came apart at certain time points. Attached are scatter plots of RMSD calculations.
