[gmx-users] RMSD analysis

Dear Justin

I think I have confused so much.
Let me try to put it in simple way.

1.Can I compare Rmsd , rg , rmsf of protein-ligand complex with that of
monomer(just protein) to explain stability?

2. Time step of monomer(just protein) simulation is 150ns and
protein-ligand complex is 50ns. In this case is it valid to compare the
above analyses between monomer and complex?

Dear Justin I apologise if I am not to your mark to explain in better way.
