Re: [AMBER] high values ​​of RMSD during the simulation of molecular dynamics between DNA and small molecule. Does anyone explain?

Centering alone probably won't be enough, because the RMSD routine does a
best-fit that will fix any centering problems. The more likely problem is
that your complex has been separated by periodic imaging. That's why I
suggested checking the archives for imaging, this has been discussed before
and you should find everything you need to fit it in the archives.
