Charles,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I have built my small molecule with XPLOR, so now I have both psf and pdb 
files.

In general,  to perform a simulated annealing for the complex of protein and 
small molecule do I have to keep a small molecule rigid to get it in proper 
orientation and without distorsion of its structure?
Thank you,
Irina.
