Why do you minimize the average structure? Won't that minimization just
result in another, non-average structure?

Subject: Re: [AMBER] Does minimization require for average pdb structure
extract from 2drms plot using CPPTRAJ AMBER 16
Hi Priya
That script is not for a 2drms, it is just a simple 1D rmsd versus the
initial frame, and then the does average.
Once you get the average, yes, you need to minimize it. The process of
averaging can create some weird structures.
I would recommend a different path: Compute the average and THEN recalculate
the RMSD of the trajectory against the average pdb. Look for what frame is
closest to the average (lowest rmsd value), extract it, and minimize THAT
frame.
