It's difficult to say anything definite about your problem based on the provided information. If the effect is critical for your job you may send me all the input files of your system and hopefully I will try to look at them on these days.<br>

<p>I checke the ndx file and the numbers of atoms in that file are the same as in the corresponding residues.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The atoms only move in EM and they stay still during equilibrium process. I have not run MD yet. So I don't know whether the atoms will move or not during MD run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you!</p>

<br>Are you sure that the numbers of the atoms in your ndx file are the same as in the corresponding residues? I suggest that you should look for a problem there.<br><br>Do the atoms move only when EM is performed or during MD run as well?<br>

<p>Dear all</p>
<p>The CNT itself does not move. Only C and O in carbonyl groups move and the distance of movement is not large. As I wrote, Each carbonyl group (C and O ) is considered as a residue named "Car" and the group name of carbonyl in the ndx file is "Car", too. Is there anything wrong with the groups?</p>
<p>Is it possible that the frozen atoms move a short distance due to the strong electrostatic forces. C in the CNT has no charge, while atoms in carbonyl groups take charges.</p>
<p>Thank you for your time!</p>
