Hi,
I have notice that quite often people in REMD simulation use replicas
in lower than 300K temp.
Using for example temperature ranges from 250 to 450K
I am wondering what is the purpose of those replicas.
I have limited computational resources and I am wondering if for
studing 175 aa protein is better to start from 250K and up to 350 K or
choose from 300-400K (just an example)
Depends on the temperature(s) at which you wish to make observations.
Sampling is normally enhanced at higher temperatures, so unless you want
the ensemble at some low temperatures, it is normal to start at your
lowest observation temperature.
Of course, you could always read the reasoning provided by the authors
in their paper, or email them for clarification...
