标题:
求助柔性多肽分子动力学模拟的收敛问题
如图所示,针对多肽(九个氨基酸残基)运行了3600ns的分子动力学模拟,观察RMSD发现结构始终未能收敛。根据sob老师关于分子动力学模拟平衡的文章中解释,推测该情况是由于多肽在300K下不断越过势垒,构象频繁变化所导致的。 本人的问题为能否截取1200~2400ns内,RMSD相对平衡区域中的一帧作为该多肽的平衡结构,进行下一步的研究呢。(附图分别为1200ns 1800ns 2400ns 时多肽的结构,可以看出形成的阿尔法螺旋又打开了)

不要自己在标题里手写[求助]这种标签,

里明确说了。这次给你改了,以后注意

看具体之后研究什么
有的小肽本身就没有主导性的稳定结构,但力场参数、模拟设置不当也可能导致构象不稳定

谢谢您的回复,老师。我接下来准备用模拟得到的多肽二级结构生成其表面屏蔽电荷分布模型。力场我使用的是Amber99sb-star-ildn, 进行成品模拟之前依次进行了能量最小化、NVT和NPT平衡,模拟参数我直接用的Gromacs溶菌酶教程的mdp文件(参数如下),想请教您一下这样设置合理吗。

用AMBER19SB好得多(或者14SB,有现成的力场包)
其它没明显问题

好的,谢谢老师。之前用Amber99SB模拟过,结果确实要好的多。
