Re: [AMBER] Does minimization require for average pdb structure extract from 2drms plot using CPPTRAJ AMBER 16

Hi Priya,
In my opinion, an average structure is not a real dynamic structure but
a construction. I think that a more appropriate procedure would be to
cluster the trajectory is five or ten leaders and perform 2drmsd
between them. this would allow you to ensure that such leaders exist in
the trajectory and that a given number of conformations are represented
by them. Maybe someone may have a better opinion on the subject.

Greeting,
Hector.
