[gmx-users] Rigid structure and flexible structure present in sing system

2011-05-11 Thread Luke Goodsell
Hi, For a while I've been looking for a way to include a rigid (macromolecular) structure and a flexible (small-protein) structure in a single system and have not had much success. I looked for a way to apply a different set of constraints to each structure, but couldn't find one. I looked into m

If I read between the lines correctly, you know how to do this in gromacs, but you wish that you got a big speedup from freezing most of the atoms in your system. If that is the case, then I think that gromacs can not help you in its current form. Therefore, I suggest that you try the Charm
