EM can only do a local minimization, and there is no good reason why 
that should show a marked improvement on an arbitrary homology model.


This model is a homodimer with each chain of 609 residue and a total 
of 1218 residue so a long MD simulation to search native state is not 
feasible. Can any one help me on this list to tell that how should I 
attempt this problem.


Short MD will also be unlikely to do anything useful, because it is 
strongly determined by the initial conditions. So GROMACS is unlikely to 
be the tool you need for this problem, nor this list the place to find 
it. I would consult the homology modelling literature and software tools.

[gmx-users] protein_model_refinement

2011-10-05 Thread shahid nayeem
Dear All
I am trying to refine a protein model which is a homodimer with each chain
having 609 residues.I tried minimizing in Chimera and then checking models
with procheck.Infact model quality deteriorated as far as Ramachandran plot
is concerned. Will doing MD simulation help me in Gromacs. It is a big
protein so long MD simulation is not possible. Short duration MD will be
insufficient to search native structure. I am stuck-up. Can anyone on this
list help me.
