<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hi ,<br>
I have a protein with 2 chains. I need to do normal mode analysis on it. As
there are no <br>
covalent bonds between the two chains, I did not use the &quot;merge&quot;
option in the &quot;pdb2gmx&quot; <br>
command. <br>
I am trying to energy minimize the structure , in vaccum.( in double precision)
, but am not <br>
able to get the Fmax below e-02. i have tried using the &quot;l-bgs&quot;
minimization technique. <br>
The lbfgs.mdp file is as follows<br>
define = -DFLEXIBLE<br>
constraints = none<br>
integrator = l-bfgs<br>
tinit = 0<br>
nsteps = 10000<br>
nbfgscorr = 10<br>
emtol = .001<br>
emstep = 0.5<br>
gen_vel = no<br>
gen-temp = 300<br>
nstcomm = 1<br>
ns_type = grid<br>
rlist = 1.2<br>
rcoulomb = 1.2<br>
rvdw = 1.0<br>
Tcoupl = no<br>
Pcoupl = no<br>
coulombtype = PME<br>
vdwtype = shift<br>
<br>
The minimization continues up to the specified no. of steps. When I try to give
another <br>
minimization run on the minimized structure, the Fmax goes upto the order
&quot;e+00&quot;.<br>
<br>
I am not being able to figure out the problem. <br>
Any suggestion regarding this will be very helpful. <br>
Thanks in advance<br>
Sarbani.<o:p></o:p></p>
