Dear All,

I am refining the duplex DNA structure using NOESY volume restraints and
restrained molecular dynamics simulations. In some cases, at a high
restraining potential (35 kcal), changes in sugar chirality (C1', C2',
C3' or C4' atoms) were observed during the simulation (time scale 10-100
ns). This potential value was taken to increase the impact of NMR
restraints in total energy. Is this a high potential wall problem
(atom's movement algorithm under high potential/force) or something else?


Here input file for simulation:

&cntrl

imin=0, irest=1, ntx=5,

nstlim=200000, dt=0.002,

ntf=1, ntc=1, ntb=0,

ntpr=500, ntwx=500, ntwr=500,

cut=999.0,

igb=1, saltcon=0.1,

ntt=2, temp0=300.0,

nmropt=2, ipnlty=1, mxsub=10, tausw=0.101, pencut=-1,

/

&wt type='NOESY', istep1=0,istep2=200000,value1=35.0,

value2=35.0, /

&wt type='END' /

NOESY=vol.rst

LISTOUT=POUT


and beginig of vol.rst file:

&noeexp

omega = 600,

npeak=55,57,61, -1,

taurot=3,

taumet=0.04,

oscale=4.37e-5,

id2o=1,

emix = 0.1, 0.2, 0.4,


ihp(1,1) = 10, jhp(1,1) = 7, aexp(1,1) = 366.79999, arange(1,1) = 36.68,
