Get an average structure where there is lots of motion can lead to quite
strange results: the average structure might not mean much is waters or
ions are moving around.
The "artificial bonds" are likely visualization artifacts: the force
field doesn't have any bonds between Mg and GDP, but pymol might draw a
connection if the distance is close.
