Hexamer problem<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> errabah fatima ezzahra wrote:<br>> ><br>> > I will really appreciate any help of suggestions.I am doing simulation of six monomers of identical helical peptide. the experiment literature say that the peptides in a aqueous solution should form a hexamer. so i have done simulations for the six peptides under normal conditions with T of 300k and the result are two trimer that are perpendicular with each other.<br>> ><br>> > I don't know that to do to get the monomers rearrange and form a heaxamer instead of two trimers.<br>> ><br>> <br>> You haven't said how long your simulations are, but such processes are likely to take quite some time. You may need extensive simulation or some fortuitous starting configuration to actually produce this behavior. If the literature measures the kinetics of such a process, then you
have a baseline for what you might expect; keep in mind that atomistic MD simulations are generally only feasible on the submicrosecond time frame.<br>> <br>> -Justin<br>> <br>> -- ========================================<br>> <br>> Justin A.
