A
simple literature search will turn up dozens (if not hundreds) of
useful papers related to membrane protein MD.  There are not
necessarily any universal parameters that should be analyzed - if your
study is about activity of a membrane protein, is lateral diffusion of
lipids important?  If the answer is no, then you've wasted your
time running the analysis and searching for papers about it :)
