If we can do so then do we have any options to select two peptides with one or more having PTM via small molecule. What might be the sequence of events in this use case.<br>> Any suggestion??<br>> <br><br>Your series of questions is extremely broad, especially the use of the phrase "Gromacs analysis." What do you mean? Do you wish to study the effect of a post-translational modification (PTM) on peptide aggregation? Or binding studies of peptides and nucleic acid?<br><br>In theory, you can set up just about anything you want. Gromacs is versatile like that. If you're looking at covalent PTM events, then no, you can't do it with classical mechanics, which does not allow for bond breaking or forming. If you want to study the effects of small molecules on aggregation, that's also possible. The conditions depend
entirely upon what's known about such a system.<br><br>If you ask a more focused, specific question, you're more likely to get a real answer.<br><br>-Justin<br><br>> Thanks,<br>> SWati<br>> <br>> <br><br>-- ========================================<br><br>Justin A.
