Hi Anton

Sure, but before that happens it needs to be tested a bit more. I haven;t
actually heard of *anyone* (!) simulating a PRODRGged small molecule in
GMX with success. That could mean lots of people have tried and it works
perfectly or nobody has tried because it doesn;t work :-) 
(so if YOU out there have tried and failed/succeeded, let me know!)
Once these small things work OK we can move onto entire proteins.

cheers

Daan
