How is it possible to evaluate fluctuations, flexibility, and stability of a certain domain within a protein after MDS with Gromacs?

03 March 2018 1 306 Report

Hi there,

I want to know how can i determine fluctuations, flexibility, and stability of a certain stretches of amino acids (for example amino acids 20 to 50) within a protein after MDS with GROMACS?
