[gmx-users] position restrained dynamics & protein size

Dear friends,

I am working to study dynamic behaviour of a protein molecule, having
3666 atoms. My question is related to position restrained dynamics
step.
What should be the time step in position restrained dynamics ?
This time i am giving 100ps, but i don't know is it sufficient to sock
the water in protein cavities.
Is their any relationship between position restrained dynamics time
step and protein size?

Please advise me.

Regards
Rituraj

Even my coordinate.gro file that is generated at the end of the simulation has the correct numbering. The problem is specifically with "trjconv".

>  You see that starting from the second nitrogen atom of my DPPC molecules, the residue number should be 68 and not 2. So this is what trjconv is actually giving me. It is renumbering the solvent molecules but it is not recognising different DPPC molecules. Instead it is writing my DPPC membrane as one single huge molecule.
