Hello Justin,

In the last message you said "SA protocol simply heats and cools water, which I
don't think accomplishes much".. can you suggest the other paramaters that must
be  used  achieve, lets say the proper folding of loops in a GPCR.



I should clarify that - the SA protocol does indeed heat and cool the protein as well, but accomplishes nothing because restraints were applied.

To refine loops, don't use restraints. One can create a custom posre.itp file with genrestr to restrain some parts of a protein (i.e., well-folded secondary structure elements) while letting others move. This may be necessary if using high temperatures that would otherwise cause the protein to unfold. Restraints can be useful, if applied appropriately.




Secondly.,,In temperature coupling he  used 310 for the non protein system and a
range of temeratures from 310-323-310 for simulated aneealing.. how the program
treats the couling temperatures  and annealing temperatures (310 and 
310-323-310)..
Can you explain what temperature is applied to what groups in simple membrane
system with a GPCR system..


Temperatures are scaled linearly between the values listed in annealing_temp over the times set in annealing_time. The values set for ref_t are irrelevant, but one does need to set appropriate values for other temperature coupling parameters.

-Justin
