[gmx-users] Constraint of active site in gromacs

Thanks Justin , but I have a modelled protein download from Modbase and
added Fe iron into the approximate ligating distance of three ligating
atoms of the amino acids. Now I am aiming to bring the octahedral geometry
of the Fe coordinating atoms which include two more water molecules using
EM engine of Gromacs. Will it be possible to let the EM to optimize the
distances between the atoms of the octahedral by constraining the angles
and positions of the atom positions for a octahedral geometry ?
Regards,
Raja
