| Molecular Dynamics with Particle-Particle Particle-Mesh method; Iterative Relaxation Matrix Approach with generalized order parameters | Initial structure for model 1 is A-DNA, while that for model 2 is B-DNA. First we applied 640ps free MD with 18 Na+ counterions and 2789 waters for A-DNA and 2303 waters for B-DNA. Then we applied 4 cycles of IRMA with 174 NOE restraints and 19 hydrogen bond restraints | XwinNMR |
