Thank you, sir, for your reply. I am trying this using stfcdiffusion
command. Because I am trying to calculate the MSD of active site water
molecules (waters within 8 angstrom from Zn atom).
so parm *.prmtop
trajin *.nc
rms first #(as you recommended for internal coordinate changes)
stfcdiffusion mask :WAT.O out msd.dat time 5 mask2 :ZN6 lower 2.0 upper 8.0
nwout nw.dat avout avg.dat
go
Can I do that for active site MSD of water molecules?
Thanking you
