Hi everyone,
   I have a question about the role of ACE and NME capping in the protein
simulation. Recently, I have read papers for comparing the difference
between capping and uncapping protein after MD simulation. In their
results, uncapped protein simulation is more accuracy than capping protein.
I have atteched the paper below:

Cino, E. A., Choy, W.-Y., & Karttunen, M. (2012). Comparison of Secondary
Structure Formation Using 10 Different Force Fields in Microsecond
Molecular Dynamics Simulations. Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation,
8(8), 2725–2740. http://doi.org/10.1021/ct300323g

Therefore, I am wondering the role of ACE and NME capping protein in the
protein simulation.

Anyone can give me some suggestions?

Thank you for taking your time.

Jacky
