[gmx-users] radius of gyration

Dear Justin.
Thanks for your explanation.
............................................................
In lyzozyme tutorial the radius of gyration has been plooted against simulation time (there 1000 ps).
When I plot the same graph, the horizontal axis is up to 500 (The number of frames for data calculation).
Although, the gyrate.xvg file has gyration data for these 500 frames, how can I tell gnuplot to plot gyration versus simulation time (1000 ps)?

Thanks
Regards
D.M

In my opinion, that's not appropriate.  The structure of a membrane protein can be highly sensitive to the environment, so any conclusions you reach would be suspect in the mind of a skeptical reviewer.  Why not embed the protein in a membrane?
