Dear Xplor-nih users,

I would like to use the RAMA term for inter-chain contacts, I am  
trying to use the following modification to the initialization in  
protocol.py:

def initRamaDatabase(type='protein',simulation=0,useinter=False):
     ...
     xSim.command("""eval ($krama=1.);eval ($kramalr=1.)...""")
       if useinter:
         @QUARTS:2D_quarts_new.tbl
         @QUARTS:3D_quarts_new.tbl
         @QUARTS:forces_torsion_prot_quarts_intra.tbl
         @QUARTS:forces_torsion_prot_quarts_inter.tbl #this is new
         @QUARTS:4D_quarts_inter_new.tbl #this is new
         end
         @QUARTS:setup_quarts_torsions_intra_2D3D.tbl
         @QUARTS:setup_quarts_torsions_inter.tbl #this is new

However is seems that inter-residue forces are not active. I calculate  
a structure for a symmetric oligomer and all monomer are fixed through  
the group statement using rigid body dynamics. However different  
supramolecular structure yields exactly the same RAMA energi.

Can someone help me on how to use RAMA for long-range interactions?

best regards,

Jakob
