Dear All,
these are helpful suggestions, thanks Carlos,
After these commands, I assume that, if I load the trajectory for the 2nd
structure and give similar rmsd commands, I should be able to see how it
evolves during MD simulation, right? Then I hope I can see/compare them in
one plot may be using gnuplot (xmgrace is not working on my Centos 7).

How can I handle this incompatibility between prmtops while estimating the
Es with imin=5 of one structure with parameters for the other (parameters
are different only for the co-factor and residues coordinating with it in
addition to the difference of the extra ion)?

I hope that these questions are meaningful and I'll get valuable
suggestions to tackle the same.

Thank you and best regards :)
Vaibhav
