Greetings everyone!



I want to perform steered molecular dynamics (SMD) simulation using AMBER20
and need to define the center of mass (COM) of two domains of a protein in
the DISANG file.



Could anyone kindly share a sample DISANG file or example input that
demonstrates how to define COM of two domains in order to change
the distance between them?



For reference, I’ve included a standard DISANG file format for a distance
restraint between two atoms:



# Change distance between atoms 485 and 134 from 15 A to 20.0 A
&rst iat=485,134, r2=15., rk2 = 5000., r2a=20.0, /



Any guidance, suggestions, or example files would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks and regards,
