Hi Lizelle,
First kindly try to autoimage your trajectory.
trajin*.crd
autoimage
trajout*.crd
I think this might fix it.
with regards,
-AT

Subject: [AMBER] Protein drift from solvent box
Dear Amber users,
I have solvated my glycoprotein using the tleap input file given below. It specified that the distance between solute and boundary should be 10.0 and, assuming that this was the case, I proceeded to use this as input for MD.
Before minimization I ran this in cpptraj:
trajin protein.rst7
center
trajout protein_c.rst7
Minimization, heating, equilibration and production was then run starting from this centered structure. After looking at the production output, however, I am uncertain if this was correct. I see the protein moving out of the periodic box and thus tried to image it in cpptraj as follows:
parm protein.prmtop
trajin production.nc
center !:WAT,Na+ mass
go
image center !:WAT,Na+
go
trajout production_centered.nc
go
quit
Unfortunately, when viewing this trajectory in VMD the protein still sits outside the box.
I went back to the original protein_c.rst7 used as minimization input and noticed some glycan atoms seem to be right at the solvent border. Is there any way that I can verify if tLeap indeed kept a 10A boundary between the solute and solvent border? I am worried that the glycans interacted with the neighbouring periodic box. Could this be why the imaging doesn't work or am I doing it wrong?
Is it wrong to have iwrap=1 in the minimization input file?
