[gmx-users] Help: Analysis large interdomain motion

[T.A.Wassenaar]

Hi Zhenting Gao,

Actually, this is not uncommon. The analysis you probably 
want to perform here includes principal components 
analysis and subsequently running the program DynDom to 
reveal the nature of interdomain motions. From what you 
mention you might also be interested in visualization of 
the loadings of the principal components, though that has 
not been added to gromacs yet.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
